When I went to the movies I saw a commercial for a film called Milk which is supposed to be about some gay guy getting elected in San Francisco. Apparently the indoctrination of people will keep going on until we have a homosexual interracial couple in the White House.

It's a pity for him that he does not keep the Torah. But regarding his election, I see no problem.

Leave it to Haaretz to actually take pride in this. :laugh:

Harvey Bernard Milk (May 22, 1930 – November 27, 1978) was an American politician and the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in California, as a member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. Milk was born and raised in New York where he acknowledged his homosexuality as an adolescent, but chose to pursue sexual relationships with secrecy and discretion well into his adult years. His experience in the counterculture of the 1960s caused him to shed many of his conservative views about individual freedom and the expression of sexuality.
Milk moved to San Francisco in 1972 and opened a camera store. Although he had been restless, holding an assortment of jobs and moving house frequently, he settled in the Castro District, a neighborhood that was experiencing a mass immigration of gay men and lesbians. He was compelled to run for city supervisor in 1973, though he encountered resistance from the existing gay political establishment. His campaign was compared to theater; he was brash, outspoken, animated, and outrageous, earning media attention and votes, although not enough to be elected. He campaigned again in the next two supervisor elections, dubbing himself the "Mayor of Castro Street". Voters responded enough to warrant his running for the California State Assembly as well. Taking advantage of his growing popularity, he led the gay political movement in fierce battles against anti-gay initiatives. Milk was elected city supervisor in 1977 after San Francisco reorganized its election procedures to choose representatives from neighborhoods rather than through city-wide ballots.
Milk served almost eleven months as city supervisor and was responsible for passing a stringent gay rights ordinance in San Francisco. On November 27, 1978, Milk and Mayor George Moscone were assassinated by Dan White, another city supervisor who had recently resigned and wanted his job back. Both Milk's election and the events following his assassination demonstrated the liberalization of the population and political conflicts between the city government and a conservative police force.
Milk has become an icon in San Francisco and "a martyr for gay rights", according to University of San Francisco professor Peter Novak.[1] While established political organizers in the city insisted gays work with liberal politicians and use restraint in reaching their objectives, Milk outspokenly encouraged gays to use their growing power in the city and support each other. His goal was to give hope to disenfranchised gays around the country. In 2002, he was called "the most famous and most significantly open LGBT official ever elected in the United States".[2] Writer John Cloud remarked on his influence, "After he defied the governing class of San Francisco in 1977 to become a member of its board of supervisors, many people—straight and gay—had to adjust to a new reality he embodied: that a gay person could live an honest life and succeed."[3]

we will have a transgender First Lady in the midst of hormone injections, with electrolysis treatments and a deep voice, heavy muscles, and amateurish female attire and makeup to look forward to? lol.

What about Barney Fag(Frank)?
he's been gay for years. he intends on raising taxes sky high. he's made outrageous statements. why don't we tax him. what galls me is they are all millionaires from stealing.

What about Barney Frank? Wasn't he the first?

What a brilliant representation of God's chosen people. :'(

He was an incumbent at the time. This is the first elected non incumbent

since i was a kid, gay Barney Frank was in politics. there was never a time he was not in Massachusetts. He was to oversee the Ginnie and Fannie mortgages and loans, but instead, knowingly, let these 2 giants run themselves into the ground. he plotted, just as he is doing now, to "have the taxpayer pay," because he still has his eye on some taxpayer money that is left. he will steal what is remaining and use it as he sees fit. he's a thief.
the Kennedys are crooks. the old man was a big time thief. Rose Kennedy used to give the staff at X-mas her old bras. who'd want her old bras. that used to be a big joke out on Cape Cod. the kids were wild and a jeep overturned leaving one of the girls paralyzed. she collected not one cent from that crash. that was kept quiet for years. the kids were always in trouble. ice cream shops didn't want them in there. the Kennedys never carry money. it's such a thrill to be with them, they force others to pay. the Chapaqudick incident was a cover up. My father knew some FBI guys and it took years to uncover the truth about what happened. it was all covered up. Mary Jo Kopechne had only a tiny spot to get air. her hands were scraped trying to get to that spot. he left her there to die while he swam across the creek and dealt w/it in the morning. he had the unmitigated gall to come to my high school and crack a joke about Chapaquidick. we were all standing outside and there he was. tan, in a blue pin stripe suit with deep blue eyes mesmerizing the crowd that gathered around him. Obama has that charisma. On MSNBC, they are playing the words of JFK. Obama studied the mannerisms and speeches of Regan and JFK to clinch this election. He is such a phony.
shopkeepers didn't want to do business w/Ethel. she won't pay bills. a friend of mine did some beautiful woodworking and she grabbed him by the wrist and started a fight with him. he grabbed her right back on her wrist and she almost dropped dead. she's not used to being treated like that. he is not the type of person you push around. all he did was go there to do some work and she kept calling him.

You're forgetting Barney Frank. Why does it matter that he's an incumbent?

They do this on purpose. Evil homos, that are Jewish (a small minority) are promoted and are promoted to the public in order to disgrace the Jewish nation. This is one example, another is the eurovision contest. - It's all in order to show- "you see you are not soo Holy, and what makes you the "Chosen people" when you act just like us.
