Musings of a Toe-Walker
"For over three decades the consensus of the mental health community has been that homosexuality is not an illness and therefore not in need of a cure. The APA's concern about the positions espoused by NARTH and so-called conversation therapy is that they are not supported by the science. There is

simply no sufficiently scientifically sound evidence that sexual orientation can be changed. Our further concern is that the positions espoused by NARTH and Focus on the Family create an environment in which prejudice and discrimination can flourish."
"Truth Wins Out applauds the APA for taking a strong stand against quack science and not buckling to a transparent PR campaign designed to politically pressure the APA into abandoning sound science," said TWO's Executive Director Wayne Besen.

Wednesday:
Days after the White House learns that the London terror plot will be uncovered, Cheney says Lamont victory will encourage "al Qaeda types."
The White House announces that the threat level has been raised to ‘Red.’
10:54 a.m. (CDT):
The President announces, on his way to a Wisconsin fundraiser for congressional candidate John Gard, that the arrests in London are “a stark reminder that this nation is at war with Islamic fascists who will use any means to destroy those of us who love freedom, to hurt our nation.”
12:26 p.m.:

The base is crumbling, Lieberman, a Democrat in name only, was defeated this week, the Middle East is a bigger mess than I've seen in my lifetime, soaring fuel costs are driving up costs
all over, and our moonbat Congress thinks that the biggest priorities we have to deal with are same-sex marriage, use of the word "God" in the Pledge of Allegiance, and flag burning.
Who didn't see a terror alert coming?
The sad thing is that its likely that this is the real deal, yet people are so sick of being manipulated by this sorry excuse for a President and his administration that we have come to doubt first and only accept something if a LOT of independent verification is provided. Perhaps equally bad or worse is that we
