malicious misconception by chris madoch, u.k. corrrespondent

 

I have recently been publically abused by an intelligent maliciousness that has arisen out of a bigoted misconception. I am not surprised.

gay hyprochrisy is alive and sickening by chris madoch

Something of a gender wars veteran myself- I have the scars to prove it but more of that later, I do in fact eschew conventional weaponry and have a rather queer heart.

From “Dominion” to Domination: The Duplicity and Complicity of Matthew Scully by Steve Best, Ph. D.

In 2002, arch-conservative Matthew Scully wrote a book called, Dominion: The Power of Man, The Suffering of Animals, and The Call to Mercy, that was universally and uncritically acclaimed by the animal advocacy movement. Because this movement is overwhelmingly single-issue in its focus, and in most cases doesn’t care about a person’s views or politics except how they relate to animals, no one had a problem with the fact that Scully was a senior speechwriter for President George W. Bush. He wrote some of the key fear-peddling diatribes that got Bush elected and he was recently re-enlisted to help Bush sell the Iraq war “surge” to the American people.
