Do it, Dan.

Go to Chicago and visit your brother, then sit in on this event. I'm sure Arlington Heights is only a couple of hours drive away.

I always feel sad for Peter when I read his writings, like he is a wallflower waiting to be invited to the dance. The dude should just embrace his leather fetish and attend an International Mr. Leather pagent, someone's bound to invite him to dance eventually. He doth protest too much.

Perhaps all the gheys should become members of Antioch Bible Church and start attending service, too?

Great idea!

I remember hearing long ago that Howard Stern had some feud with Kathy Lee Griffith and one night bought all the tickets to some broadway show she was doing. The theater was empty except for Stern and his pals. I don't recall what Kathy Lee ended up doing that night. Funny though.

YOUR LINK TO DONATE TO WASHINGTON GOES TO THE BIGOT SITE!!!
That has to be a mistake. Right?

@5: I'm seeing Approvereferendum71.org, so I don't know what you're getting.

I live in Chicago - but I just can't do it. Spent too many weeks of my life fighting off LaBarabera's proposed referendum banning gay marriage. I think LaBarbera's organization operates on a shoestring these days and giving them money will make a big difference to them.

@6 I am also seeing the proper link now.

Ooh, Donna, Donna, who can I turn to?
For the price of fifty dollars I can always turn to you.
I know you think I'm like the others before
Who saw your name and number on the wall

For a good time, for a good time call....

(Thank you, Tommy.)

So, do I have this right -- you're going to fight this guy by giving him shitloads of money?

No, Fnarf, not just giving him shitloads of money, but by giving him shitloads of money and actually showing up and getting in their faces. big difference.

Give him money, let him speak, let him get his message out there...so people can see just how insane he is. On my more naive days I think most people would be turned off by LaBarbera if they actually heard what he says. On those same days I think making him the face of the anti-gay movement wouldn't be such a bad thing. He's less appealing than Anita Bryant--and she was never that appealing. On my more cynical days, though (and there are more of them) I know that's a dangerous strategy.

I do like Dan's idea of letting them "look us in the eyes as they tell their lies", although I don't think it would stop them.

Someone should send Christy McVie, Mick Fleetwood and Lindsey Buckingham. They can play a quick guitar sting from the audience and Christy can just go "Tell me lies!" and the more Petey talks, they can keep singing the chorus.

And then Stevie Nicks stands up from another part of the audience and does her little unmemorable backing vocal.

It'd be the gayest rebuttal EVER.

Now there's a special invite on LaBarbera's site asking people to bring "some teenagers" (http://americansfortruth.com/news/help-a…). How long, do you think, until an attendee ends up featured in Youth Pastor Watch?

@10:

The number you have dialed 308-7619 is not a working number.

The correct number is 867-5309, please hang up and dial again.

(And yes, I did see what you did there!)

Baconcat, you are a genius.

...And you say he's posting these kinky gay videos on Youtude?

Drools...
