| Gay rights activists are demanding Tim Tebow back out of a speaking engagement at Liberty University just two weeks after pressuring the New York Jets quarterback to cancel a speaking engagement at the First Baptist Church of Dallas. Tebow is expected to speak this weekend at Wildfire – a men’s conference hosted by the conservative Christian university. His remarks will be closed to the general public. The professional football player is well-known for sharing his faith in Christ – but in recent weeks he’s come under fire from the national media and gay rights activists for speaking in churches

Comments: Free speech is only for the chosen few. I hope Tebow does not back down because these disgusting radicals are complaining. This small minority is given way too much power.

Be interesting to see how tebow handles this. IMHO (which admittedl is wrong at least as often as it is right) he gave them an inch when he backed out of First Baptist in Dallas. Will he go ahead and give them a mile?

Tebow needs to take a stand for what he believes in. Otherwise - it´s all been empty gestures.

Tebow has to learn that giving in to these radical gays gives them a legitimacy they don´t deserve. He needs to be a kind of martyr, and let Christians see what kind of animals they are dealing with. Hopefully sooner or later decent people will be so repulsed that they will fight back in whatever way they can. But I´m afraid there are no martyrs anymore, in religion or politics or especially in the media.

I honestly believe that a LOT of these so-called "gay rights" groups are actually anti-gay. They are doing the people a greater disservice than helping them. But what do you expect from groups whose first agenda is leftism and somewhere down the line, supposedly gay rights? That is why GOProud (which is supposed to be more to the right) alienated people in their own party. They used the same tactics as the left and turned people off. If I were one of those folks, I would do everything in my power to take the conversation back to civility and work to stop the bully tactics that are making more people resent them than accept them.

Here´s a thought - anytime the ´gay rights´ people start the bully routine, let´s respond with some HIV statistics, and ask them why their ´child advocacy department´ thinks infecting school children is ´normal and healthy´...since that´s the mantra they preach from kindergarten on, with the complicity of the public schools - while the CDC notes that 1000 males in the 12 to 22 age bracket contract AIDS *monthly*.
If there´s one criticism bullies respond to, it´s what their bullying has accomplished.

Sorry to say, but Tim brought this upon himself, when he buckled to them for the 1st Baptist appearance. They will never let up on him now, and he should have been smart enough to know that.

This is all about the gays seeing to it that Tebow never works again. Their motivation is simply their animus against all things really Christian. So they know they have Tebow between a rock and a hard place. Big controversy right now/no contract for Tebow with another team besides the Jets. If he signs in the midst of a controversy he will be forced to attend NFL reeducation classes on why he is a Nazi for calling homosexuality what it is, a blatant horrific sin.
The Gays simply want to utterly crush Tebow. Pray for him to have wisdom in what he does next. The entire rest of his life will probably be determined in the next month or so.

Tebow gave them leverage when he backed out of the FBD speaking event. He´s young...he´s learning a painful lesson that you cannot go along to get along with some folks. Whatever you do will never be enough. I don´t care what he does, but he will have to resolve this within himself.

1. Whatever happened to "Just leave us alone -- that´s all we want"?
2. So OK -- show me the wording of the laws that specifically deny the same rights to all?
3. When a fraction of one´s private life becomes one´s identity, and to the point that it must be rubbed in everyone´s face, and their approval is mandated -- is it not fair to suspect some mental health issues? I don´t care for chili peppers myself. But I haven´t set up an organization to prohibit restaurants from serving dishes with them. I don´t have t-shirts printed decrying the bigotry of a pro-chili lifestyle. Maybe I´m not really serious about my chili-abstinence?
[In the end, how bad, really, would life be with hetero hairdressers and interior decorators?]
Tim? Get some good advice. Don´t repeat past mistakes.

Isn´t Liberty University in VA ? If so, Matt Staver, the attorney, is connected to them and he was involved in legal action between two gay women over a child.
Is it about Tebow or getting back at Staver ?

Gay Mafia is insufficient: The correct expression is gay FASCISTS: "All rights for me but not for thee unless you agree with me!" And we will ensure our position by force if needs be. What is the difference of this attitude and behaviour to Mussolini´s Black shirts, Hitler´s Brown shirts, and Stalin´s and Mao´s Red shirts.
And how much they would scream and yell "Homophobia and hatred" if the same tactics were used on them?

As whistleblowers came forward on Capitol Hill regarding the potential cover-up surrounding the Benghazi, Libya terrorist attack on Sept. 11, 2012, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney insisted the investigation was “politicized” and “non-substantive.” But he refrained from questioning the congressional witnesses making allegations that the administration has been dismissing. A reporter asked Carney at today’s briefing, “Do you question their motivation?” Carney said, “I don’t. I’m simply saying there has been an ongoing effort to politicize this. But beyond that,

On Wednesday, the Associated Press mischaracterized the Benghazi hearings as merely a Republican event, even though it is an official House committee investigation. In the headline of its report, the Associated Press downplayed the official hearings of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee--that has both Democrats and Republicans on it--into the failures surrounding the 2012 attacks on our embassy personnel in Benghazi, Libya. The AP characterized the official hearings as "GOP hearings," making the proceedings seem like a mere political witch-hunt.

The party that swept into power on promises of transparency and accountability scrambled Wednesday to circle wagons in an extravagant attempt to protect administration officials, the White House and the woman many Democrats hope will be their next nominee for president. Congressional Democrats strenuously tried covering up the inquiry into the botched handling and dishonest aftermath of the terrorist attack on a U.S. facility in Benghazi that left dead our ambassador to Libya and three other Americans.

First lady Michelle Obama on Wednesday said New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) suffers from adulthood obesity and is an example of why her "Let’s Move" campaign is such an important initiative. Speaking Wednesday on the "Today" show, the first lady was asked to comment on reports that Christie secretly underwent a medical operation in February to help him lose weight. "The one thing I will say is that there are millions of people like the governor who struggle with adulthood obesity, and that’s one of the reasons why ´Let’s Move´ is so important,” she said.

For a good idea of how anxious Obamacare supporters are about the law´s rollout, read former White House health adviser Ezekiel Emanuel´s op-ed in The Wall Street Journal this morning: Transforming the U.S. health-care system—which is larger than the economy of France—is one of the most daunting administrative tasks government has ever confronted. There will be bumps in the road; this is inevitable. Setting up the exchanges will pose a host of technological challenges, such as digitally linking an individual´s IRS information (which determines a subsidy level) to the insurance offerings in the individual´s home area

Laugh if you must but it’s no goofier than the idea that “due process” implies a substantive right to kill a baby in the womb but not five minutes later, after it’s emerged. Bsides, Jackson Lee’s been consistent on this. Back in January 2011, right after the new Republican House majority was sworn in, she started arguing that repealing O-Care would amount to a deprivation of due process under the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. There’s a certain ruthless logic in her reaching for the Constitution right after the Democrats’ hold on power began to slip in

What good is a background check that doesn’t actually penalize criminals? Like the rest of Amnesty 2013, it exists only to aid the Democratic Party’s culture of criminality. Their concern is with a clause that would, during the background check process, prohibit immigration officials from forwarding criminal histories to law enforcement for deportation purposes. “The idea is we are supposed to be weeding out the bad apples,” said Steven Camarota, of the Center for Immigration Studies. “But the big problem with the bill is it does not require those denied the amnesty to leave the country.

An alarming feature of our current sociocultural world is the striking frequency of conversions to Islam across the entire gamut of Western private and public life: prisoners converting to the religion of peace in record numbers; women who crave the emotional comfort and feeling of security that donning the hijab or the niqab purportedly confers; disaffected youth who find purpose and meaning in attending the mosque, often becoming radicalized in the process; African-Americans reacting against Christianity as the white man’s religion and who “associate conversion

When it first became clear that the CIA’s Benghazi talking points had been altered, many of us viewed the White House as the prime suspect. After all, it served President Obama’s political purposes to claim, at the height of a political campaign in which he was taking credit for the fall of al Qaeda, that the death of a U.S. ambassador was down to spontaneous outrage over a video, rather than pre-planned terrorism. It turns out, however, that the State Department was the prime culprit. It was State that pushed back hard against the original talking points.

Republican lawmakers, who have spent months seeking to tie President Obama to last year’s deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, are increasingly focusing their probe on a new target: former secretary of state Hillary Rodham Clinton. The GOP-led investigation of the Sept. 11, 2012, assaults that killed U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three others now centers heavily on the State Department and whether officials there deliberately misled the public about the nature of the assault. Three State Department officials are scheduled to testify before a House committee on Wednesday about the Benghazi attack and its aftermath.

Sanford defeated Colbert Busch 54 percent to 45 percent, according to full unofficial results. Turnout was heavier than expected, with about 32 percent of the district’s 455,702 registered voters casting ballots. Sanford, who has never lost an election, returns to the 1st District seat he held for three terms from 1995-2001.

There was tragic incompetence, plainly, in the Obama administration’s handling of the Benghazi attacks, and even possibly some political calculation. It is a record that may well come to haunt Hillary Clinton, the first Secretary of State to lose an ambassador in the field in more than three decades, if she runs for president in 2016. But the obvious Republican effort to turn this inquiry into the Democratic (Obama) version of the Iraq intelligence scandal that has tarred the GOP since the George W.

British physicist Stephen Hawking has dropped plans to attend a major international conference in Israel in June, citing his belief that he should respect a Palestinian call to boycott contacts with Israeli academics. The University of Cambridge released a statement Wednesday indicating that Hawking had told the Israelis last week that he would not be attending "based on advice from Palestinian academics that he should respect the boycott." University officials said they had "previously understood" that Hawking´s decision was based solely on health concerns — he is 71 and has severe disabilities — but had now been told otherwise by Hawking´s office.
