From blogger Mitch Berg:

-------------------------------

The following conversation is a “fake but accurate” synthesis of several conversations, emails and twitter threads.

Names were changed to protect the gullible.

DFLer: Target is radically anti-gay and anti-immigrant!

ME: Er, how do you figure? Target has been the most pro-gay corporation in town! They even sponsor the “pride” parade.

DFLer: Because they gave money to a radical extremist anti-gay and anti-immigrant political action committee!

ME: What, MNForward? Go and read their website; they are purely interested in business issues. Not only do they take absolutely no stands on social issues, but they’ve endorsed three DFL candidates who, supposedly, endorse their own party’s putatively gay-friendly issues.

DFLer: Doesn’t matter. They support Tom Emmer.

ME: …and…?

DFLer: Tom Emmer is a radical extreme anti-gay politician.

ME: Um no. He’s said in as many words that his focus as governor is on jobs, the state economy, and re-engineering state government.

DFLer: But he’s an anti-gay extremist! He sponsored a measure against gay marriage!

ME: Can something be “extreme” when the vast majority of Minnesotans, even younger ones, support the traditional definition of marriage? Is that even logically possible? At all?

DFLer: Um…A HAH! Emmer is a big financial supporter of You Can Run But You Can Not Hide, a radical Christianist ministry that supports executing gays. He even had his picture taken with them! Even called them “nice guys”.

ME: Emmer’s “Donation” was buying a $250 seat at a fundraiser for a teen outreach; no politics were involved at all. And Emmer’s had pictures taken with pretty much every person in the state over the past year. And whether you like their theology or not, Brad Dean and Jake McMillan are, indeed, personable.

DFLer: Executing gays! Doyyyyy!

ME: The quote was wrenched far out of context. Dean was talking on the air, off the cuff, about different nations’ adherence to ultra-orthadox theology. Not grading moral correctness, and emphatically not issuing a call to action.

DFLer: Er…says you!

ME: Well, no – says Bradlee Dean. I called him and asked.

DFLer: But…they’re anti-immigrant!

ME: Why?

DFLer: Because they’re anti-gay!

ME: Um, we just showed they’re not. And, by the way, the traditional Catholicism of so many Latino immigrants is pretty explicit in its views on gays!

DFLer: So you’re saying Target is Catholic? Hahahahaha! I pwn3d you!

ME: Er…yeah. I know when I’ve met my match.

Randi Reitan gave $1,200 to the homophobic Al Franken!!!

http://fundrace.huffingtonpost.com/

If you ask me, they're all homosexuals in the Pudding. Hey, I was glad when that Pudding homosexual got killed in Philadelphia." The smile became so broad it pushed his eyes shut. He couldn't stand it any longer. "Put that in, put that in," Franken laughed, leaning over the desk. "I'd love to see that in The Crimson."

You'll have to zoom in on the map to see the three intersections on Prairie Center Drive. What's your vote for the worst intersection in town? I know I've also had a lot of trouble near Technology Drive as well.

We need term limits. I think two terms as mayor or council member is long enough. It is best for our city to have fresh blood every few years. Old mayors and council members really should not be allowed to run again, especially as a pack. Butcher, Tyra-Lukens and Case...not again.

The Reitan family strikes

1965 — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 11:16:13 -0500

The Reitan family strikes again! Last I heard, Obama was against gay marriage as well. So am I to assume the Reitan's voted for McCain/Palin? Please......
