This Is What You Wanted, America...

Here's some of the article from the Catholic News Agency. Try not to puke too much. Oh... and don't expect to hear a helluva lot of protest from the USCCB (maybe a few have their boyfriends marching).Obama ‘proud’ to have homosexual band march in inaugural parade
Washington DC, Dec 10, 2008 / 04:48 pm (CNA).- President-elect Barack Obama and Vice President-elect JoeBiden have officially invited the Lesbian and Gay Band Association to march in the Inaugural Parade. One of the association’s web sites reports that the group will also march in September as part of the homosexual “Southern Decadence” festival infamous for its public lewd acts. "I am honored to invite these talented groups and individuals to participate in the Inaugural Parade," said President-elect Obama. "These organizations embody the best of our nation's history, diversity and commitment to service. Vice President-elect Biden and I are proud to have them join us in the parade." The main web site of the Lesbian and Gay Band Association hosts a YouTube video reportedly showing 250 of its members marching in the 35th Annual Village Halloween Parade in Greenwich Village in New York City.
The YouTube video, titled “Male Witch Marching Band – Halloween NYC 08,” (below) shows a glamorously dressed man followed by two people wearing fairy costumes. They lead a band of people dressed as witches who play the song “Gimme Some Lovin’.”
The marchers were attendees at the LGBA’s 2008 conference, titled “Deliciously Wicked.” “The weekend more than lived up to its name,” the web site states, noting the conference’s receptions, parades, performances, and costume ball.
As of Wednesday morning, the web site for the LGBA’s 2009 conference in New Orleans, lgba2009.org, describes conference plans, saying “We will also be marching in the Southern Decadence Parade on Sunday, September 6th.”
The web site reports that the LGBA conference will be held as part of Southern Decadence and Decafest. The site links to the Southern Decadence festival, which has often been targeted for protest because of its extreme indecency. In 2003, the Atlanta Journal Constitution reported that it had “become routine” for men to flash their genitals and perform public sex acts at the event, which bills itself as “the Gay Mardis Gras.”
“The city's wildest neighborhood gets even crazier as the French Quarter is packed for the entire event,” the Southern Decadence festival’s current web site says. In its Frequently Asked Questions section, the web site tells those with “an interest in the adult film business” that a pornographic filmmaker will be in attendance. In a statement on its web site, the LGBA said its participation in the Presidential Inaugural will be “truly our chance to make history.”
In total, 1,382 organizations applied to participate in the Inaugural Parade. Many of the groups approved to march in the parade are high school bands. What happened to the good old day when we could laugh at fairies? I wonder if Obama bin-Biden has signed these guys up yet?

Puts a whole new spin on "Don't Ask, Don't Tell". As far as the coronation ceremony...I mean inauguration ceremony, goes, I'm taking the "Don't Care, Won't Watch" approach.
Um, so, he called them "talented," but he didn't say at what, exactly. I for one am disgusted with this marching moral morass and I should think the television coverage should probably be a bit slim when they cross the review stand, for everyone's sake.
I suppose they will really be there "recruiting" from the high school bands--my kid will not be attending, thank you.
The Coronation will be spent doing something far more constructive
Like Larry, I won't be watching. But I am curious to see how this LGBT band will behave.
You know they'll be on their best behavior to show us Americans that they're just like everyone else.
There will none of their Folsom Street Fair business in the inaugural parade--even though that's who they are.
I just ran into this article that I thought you might enjoy. I'm curious to see your thoughts on it, though I'm pretty sure I already know.

Just great Cavey! I'm home sick today (a bit of the Flu), and I have to be assulted by "Fags on Parade."
Once again, we get what we deserve!

Insert your own nonPC fruitcake being arround forever after Christmas joke above.
Errrr.....why are the rest of the bands not called "we get it on with opposite sex band", or the "hetrosexual drum and bugle corp", or even "my dog and I are getting married" band.
There is noooooo reason to name a band for the way it's members engage in sex. Pure "rub it in our faces" nonsense!
