Being Liberal and a Progressive in a RED STATE is not an easy thing these days. I started this blog to vent my frustrations on our lives being taken over by right wing conservatives with their propaganda machines. I have also learned an important lesson in the last year, it is that reading is the only way to get real information, you cannot depend on the news you see on TV.

Honey Chile Just Play In Your Own Backyard

This reminded me so much of that song my Mom used to sing:

Honey chile just play in your own backyard, don't mind what those white chiles say
Just go out and play, as much as you may, but stay in your own backyard.

In 1954, Mamie Eisenhower allowed African-American parents and their children on the White House lawn for the first time at the annual Easter Egg Roll. She did not consider the decision political, but for many white citizens, the only blacks they wanted to see on the White House lawn were gardeners.

From Got Detroit:

The Annual Easter Egg Roll on the White House back lawn will include children of gay or same sex relationships. Surprisingly, some rather friendly, open-minded, yet raucous groups are upset by this.


“For crying out loud, at the Easter egg roll? This is a family event,” said exasperated executive director Andrea Lafferty (Traditional Values Coalition), who called it “very distasteful” and inappropriate to politicize the occasion and to use children to do so.

We agree. It is very distasteful to have these children at a “family event”. Because, as we all know, children from same-sex relationships aren’t really children at all. Sure, they look like children, act like children, but if left alone, will hump your leg like the untrained dog-like creatures they are. Like their mutated evil parents, only smaller. [News]
