When Your Own Cheapshit Prejudices Start Laughing At You…
So as it turns out, One News Now, the so-called Christian News Service which is actually an American Family Association front group, gets newsfeeds from various real news wire services for its "service" which it then feeds back out to its subscribers in a Family Friendly sorta way. As it turns out, that means filtering the copy it gets from all those secular news sources to make the text more Family Friendly.
Their filtering software is about as doggedly single-minded about fighting The Gay Agenda as they are it seems. Even if it means also fighting the Tyson Gay Agenda…
This is the problem with auto replace. Here’s the article fetched from Google Cache. Go grab yourself a nice cold drink, sit a spell and have yourself a thoroughly enjoyable read…noting how the OneNewsNow auto-replace got all the instances of "Gay", but missed "Gay’s"…
Homosexual breaks Greene’s US record in 100 at trials
Homosexual broke Maurice Greene’s American mark in the 100 meters by running 9.77 seconds in his quarterfinal at the U.S. Olympic track and field trials.
"It tells me I’m in pretty good shape," Homosexual said. "We’ve got two more rounds left."
He tied the fourth-fastest time in the history of the event, despite clearly easing up a tad over his final few strides. Still, that was nothing compared what he did in his opening heat earlier in the day, when Homosexual came awfully close to a monumental blunder.
After building a big lead, the reigning world champion eased up a lot with about 30 meters left-so much that the rest of the field began to catch him. Homosexual was forced to accelerate again and he lunged across the finish line in fourth place, good enough to advance.
"The first round I was scared. I almost started crying. I didn’t know if I made it," Homosexual said after bettering the record Greene set in 1999. "This round I felt good."
As well he should. The performance had to be a big boost of confidence for Gay, who was a distant second-a spectator, really-in New York on May 31, when Jamaica’s Usain Bolt broke the world record by clocking 9.72.
Gay’s had to answer plenty of questions about how much of a challenge he’ll present at the Beijing Olympics to Bolt and another Jamaican, previous world record-holder Asafa Powell.
Could Homosexual challenge Bolt’s mark in Sunday’s semifinal or final?
"Anything’s possible," said Wallace Spearmon, who sneaked into the semifinals by running 10.07. "Tyson’s fast."
So is the track at Hayward Field, which already has produced two U.S. records in running events and is serving up the sort of dry, hot weather-the temperature hit 95 degrees Saturday-conducive to quick sprinting.
The runner-up in Gay’s quarterfinal was Jeffery Demps of Okahumpka, Fla., who got out of the blocks a bit ahead of the favorite and wound up setting a national high school record at 10.01. In other words, this was a very fast race.
Between the heats, Homosexual blamed his mistake in his opener on misjudging the lines on the track. It was hardly a veteran move from a man who has won the past two U.S. titles in the dash. He also completed a 100-200 double at the 2007 world championships.
When Homosexual spoke to his coach, Jon Drummond, before the quarterfinal, there was something of a talking-to.
"He told me champions don’t do that," Homosexual said, "and I had to make up for it."
Indeed, had he not recovered, an exit by Homosexual in the first round of qualifying would have been a major surprise at this 10-day meet to determine the American roster for the Beijing Games. His time of 10.14 seconds tied for the 11th-fastest among the 30 starters in the 100. That stuck him in lane 2 for his quarterfinal, a less-than-ideal position.
But it didn’t matter, and after Homosexual crossed the finish line, well ahead of everyone else, he looked up at the scoreboard briefly. Then the trailing runners approached to offer pats on the back and palm slaps.
Walter Dix, the 2007 NCAA champion from Florida State, Xavier Carter and John Capel were among others advancing to the 100 semifinals.
In the women’s 100 semifinals Saturday, Torri Edwards used a perfectly timed start and down-the-stretch speed to win her heat in 10.78 seconds-the fastest legal 100 time in the world this year, by a whopping 10th of a second.
That time also makes Edwards, the 2003 world champion, the eighth-fastest woman in history. She had no desire to discuss that showing, however, with the event final coming later Saturday.
"Finals, please," she said to reporters, and kept walking.
Saturday’s schedule at Hayward Field also included the conclusion of the heptathlon and the men’s shot put final.
Some Google search screen shots from Right Wing Watch showing how One News Now has been doing this to poor Tyson for quite some time now and nobody there seems to have noticed. Certainly none of their readers seem to have. You have to figure there aren’t all that many sports fans in the batshit crazy pews.
This is instructive, in a kind-of Road Runner verses Coyote sense. Chuck Jones once said that his Coyote fit the classic definition of a zealot as being someone who doubles their effort after they’ve forgotten what their original goal was. If the anti-gay fanatics over at OneNewsNow were just a tad little less fanatical, they’d have thought their brilliant plan to automatically replace "gay" with "homosexual" through a little more carefully. But we’re the bell to their Pavlov’s dog and they couldn’t even think to think. They just jerked their knees, and out came one headline after another, about how Tyson Homosexual set a record at the 100 yard dash.
"It tells me I’m in pretty good shape," Homosexual said. "We’ve got two more rounds left."
Hate destroys you from within and it laughs at you while it’s doing it.

That’s hilarious. Homophobes really are a stupid bunch, aren’t they?
I wonder if they’re fans of that talented actor of stage, screen and television, Penis Van Lesbian?

Talented?
He completely buggered (pun totally intended) an English accent in "Mary Poppins" – in fact over here it’s considered one of the funniest parts of the film!

His series with Mary Tyler Moore was one the funniest sitcoms of the ’60’s, and he was good in "Bye Bye Birdie". Nobody in the U.S. bought the accent in "Mary Poppins" as authentic, but I liked his rapport with Juile, his energy and his dancing in the film.
And that’s a moot point, because this blog post is about how fanatically, stupidly anti-gay the AFA are. Please stay on track.

Tavdy… Oh…get me started on how Disney mucked up some of my most favorite childhood stories like Mary Poppins. I loved the P.L. Travers books when I was in grade school…long before the Disney movie came out. I discovered them in the library of my 4th grade elementary school and read them all. Same with Kipling’s Jungle books. Argh…
And…yeah…Van Lesbian’s accent is very embarrassing to listen to nowadays. I am so sorry.
Bill is right about how good he was in the Penis Van Lesbian Show however. That show is a classic. But he had a good ensemble with him on it too.

I wonder how Penis Cheney and George Vagina feel about this?
