Gay, lesbian parents to line up for Easter Egg Roll tickets

http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/04/13/eastereggroll.ap/index.html   Thursday, April 13, 2006; Posted: 10:05 p.m. EDT (02:05 GMT)

story.egg.roll.gi.jpg The White House Easter Egg Roll has been a Washington tradition since the mid-19th century.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Hundreds of gay and lesbian parents hoping to take their families to the annual White House Easter Egg Roll plan to start lining up Friday evening to make sure they get tickets for the Monday event.

Thousands of tickets -- an estimated 16,000 last year -- are given away on a first-come-first-served basis beginning at 7:30 a.m. Saturday.

National Park Service officials said Wednesday that children of all ages may attend as long as there is at least one child 7 years old or younger, and no more than two adults per group.

First lady Laura Bush's office issued a statement saying all families are welcome to attend.

"I don't think this is a protest," said Jennifer Chrisler, executive director of the Family Pride Coalition. "Showing up, participating fully in an American tradition, showing Americans that we do exist, that in our minds isn't a protest."

Some say the gay and lesbian parents are playing politics.

"I think it's inappropriate to use a children's event to make a political statement," said Mark D. Tooley of the Institute on Religion and Democracy.

The gay and lesbian parents say they won't carry signs or chant slogans, but will wear rainbow-colored leis as a unifying symbol.

"The message is that gay and lesbian families are everywhere in this country," said Chrisler. "We care about the same things that all parents care about: providing our children with every opportunity and every experience possible."

The egg roll has been a Washington tradition since the mid-19th century. Children use spoons to push colored eggs through the grass in a race. Past events have included petting zoos and White House staff members in bunny costumes.

The president sometimes makes a brief appearance, and the first lady often reads a story. The White House has not announced plans for this year.

Nine Eleven: A Response to Doubting Doug

Nine Eleven: A Response to Doubting Doug Friday April 14th 2006, 5:56 pm Doug Thompson, editor and publisher of Capitol Hill Blue, has slipped into warp drive. He believes you and Iâthose who believe the government was complicit or behind the attacks of nine elevenâare âfruitcakes, lemmings and scam artists.â Iâm not sure why Thompson has become so enraged at those of us who donât buy the official version (a fairy tale) and why he assumes we are either crazed tinfoil hatters or snake oil salesmen looking for a quick buck (and believe me, if youâre interested in making a quick buck, youâd have more luck going door-to-door as a hawker of Amway products). His venom leads me to believe something is going on behind the scenes. I find it remarkably strange that Thompson believes his government is capable of setting up a police state, while on the other is unable to grasp the idea that very same government would kill its own citizens, as it has slaughtered thousands and thousands of Iraqis (and millions of Asians before the latest round of serial murder). Letâs take a look at Thompsonâs latest ârantâ (as he dubs his column): âThose who buy into such nutcase causes dishonor the memory of every man, woman and child who died on that horrible day. Even worse, they become willing pawns for the quick-buck scammers who use such events to line their own pockets.â No, Doug, you dishonor them with your inability to think beyond the official, government sanctioned versionâa mostly flat wave version that would have never emerged if the families of the victimsâin particular, the âJersey Girls,â Kristin Breitweiser, Patty Casazza, Lorie Van Auken, and Mindy Kleinbergâhad not leaned on the Bushites. Is Lorie Van Auken a fruitcake? âAt first, we widows didnât want to be seen with conspiracy people. But they kept showing up. They cared more than those supposedly doing the investigating. If you ask me, theyâre just Americans, looking for the truth, which is supposed to be our right,â Van Auken told New York Magazine. But then maybe Ms. Van Auken is a scam artist like the rest of us determined to get at the truthâdedicated lemmings going over the edge. Dare I say, Doug, you dishonor âthe memory of every man, woman and child who died on that horrible dayâ with your inability to consider the common sense fact nineteen Arab hijackers were unable to violate the laws of physics on nine eleven? âYou all too often find these wackos on web sites that also promote anti-Semitism and hateâthe ones that claim the Holocaust didnât happen and blame everything bad that happens on some vast âZionistâ conspiracy.â Okay, letâs face itâDoug Thompson is a neocon, or at least he comes off sounding like one, regardless of his previous and admirable rants against the squashing of the Constitution and the emergent police state. Doug, check out the Scholars for 9/11 Truth, all respected professionals, and not an anti-Semite among them. Not all skeptics believe nine eleven was a âZionistâ conspiracy and it is remarkably unfair, even illogical and desperate, for you to claim such a thing. Itâs a bankrupt accusation and really doesnât stick anymore. You may want to consult your new friends, the neocons, for more effective talking points. âCheck out the web sites that promote the various, and ridiculous conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11 and you will find that just about all of them ask for money. The same is true for the so-called ânewsâ sites that support these outlandish conspiracy fantasies.â I notice Capitol Hill Blue is teeming with banner ads for corporate interests such as Verizon, the Dish Network, Best Western, TiVo, and others. I bet you put those up for free. Letâs face it, Doug. It costs money to run a website. Some of us write about other things besides nine eleven and as journalists weâd like to get paid for it. I have a donation button on my blog. Iâd like to write political commentary and get paid for it like the hacks over at the Washington Post and the New York Times. I donât consider myself a scam artist for putting up a donation button. I wonder how much of that lucrative banner income works its way to your bank account, Mr. Thompson. âAll link to the same, discredited âsourcesâ for their claims. All claim to have âevidenceâ that is nothing but flights of fancy. All, in my opinion, are scams. Iâve spent weeks searching through these web sites and read all the links to so-called âevidenceâ and I have yet to find one, single, shred of verifiable information that provides any proof that our government planned or executed the attacks.â And Lee Harvey Oswald killed JFK all on his lonesome. Youâre really showing your ignorance here, Doug. Of course there is no direct evidence the government was complicit in nine eleven. It doesnât work that way. Speaking of JFK, maybe you saw Oliver Stoneâs film on the assassination. If you did, you may remember David Ferrie, played by Joe Pesci, telling Jim Garrison: âWho did the president, who killed Kennedy, fâ man! Itâs a mystery! Itâs a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma! The fâinâ shooters donât even know! Donât you get it?â Doug, you donât get it. Governments cover up their tracks and shift blame on patsies. Iâd suggest you do a bit of history reading. Begin with Nicco Machiavelli. After you read Nicco, search for Operation Northwoods via Google. âOur government failed on many levels to respond to information that might have prevented the attacks but incompetence does not prove a conspiracy. America has a long, tainted history of getting caught with its pants down.â A couple weeks ago, after I wrote about Thompsonâs first column dissing nine eleven truth seekers, I received an email assuring me that Thompson is a Republican. Indeed, he thinks and writes like a Republicanâand a Democrat, since there ainât a lick of difference betwixt the two. It wasnât incompetence that made NORAD stand down or the towers collapse like a textbook demolition. Incompetence didnât âpullâ Building Seven. Incompetence didnât make airline wreckage (including titanium) at the Pentagon vaporize in thin air while bodies were supposedly left intact enough to get DNA from. It didnât make Flight 93 disappear in a ten foot hole in Pennsylvania. âA jury in Alexandria, Virginia, this week heard the cockpit voice tapes of United Flight 93, a hijacked airliner bound for the U.S. Capitol in Washington. The actions of passengers who knew they were going to die prevented the plane from reaching its destination. The passengers of Flight 93 are some of the true heroes of September 11.â Doug, is it inconceivable these tapes are forgeries, same as the cell phone calls made at 25,000 feet inside an airliner going 500 miles per hour? At the time, it was technically impossible to place a cell phone callâand these were said to be cell phone callsâfrom a speeding aircraft at that altitude. AT&T admits as much and calls the ten cell phone supposedly made from Flight 93 a âflukeâ (more like a miracle). According to American Airline and Qualcomm, the technology for cell phone transmission at high altitude was first available this year, not 2001. How do you explain these cell phone calls? I have a few ideas, but youâd probably call me a nutcase, a fruitcake, a lemming and a scam artist. âIn another month, a film about Flight 93 opens around the country. It will serve as a painful reminder of what really happened on that dayâa true story far different from the pitiful conspiracy theories advanced by those who wish the milk the tragedy for their own benefit.â Actually, it makes perfect sense for Hollywood to make a version of the fairy tale you believe as gospel truth. Meanwhile, those of us worried about the future of America will âmilk the tragedyâ for our âown benefitâ while the stockholders at whatever movie corporation producing this Brothers Grimm fantasy will go penniless. âLater this year, Oliver Stone, the top conspiracy-theorist in this country, releases his own film on the World Trade Center. But Stone, who could find a conspiracy in the rising of the sun, could not find one from that fateful day and his film will be, instead, a tribute to the first responders.â Ah, Oliver Stone. I figured weâd get around to him. Most Americans believe there was a conspiracy behind the assassination of JFK, a fact well portrayed in Stoneâs film. I donât recall Stone finding conspiracies âin the rising of the sunâ or elsewhere. As for those first responders Stone will make his latest film about, a few of them have problems with the official version you embrace so adamantly. For instance, Louie Cacchioli, one of the first firefighters to enter the South Tower, reported hearing explosions. âOn the last trip up a bomb went off. We think there were bombs set in the building,â he said. In fact, FDNY fire fighters are under a gag order to not discuss the explosions they heard, felt and saw. But donât worry, Doug. I donât think Stone will include their stories in his âtributeâ (and of course, unlike us scam artists, he will not make a cent off this epic). âThose who prey on fear and paranoia to promote their kooky conspiracy theories dishonor those passengers on Flight 93. They dishonor the innocent victims who died on that day and the first responders who lost their lives trying to save those victimsâ. And they dishonor America.â Few of us are preying âon fear and paranoiaâ to promote âkooky conspiracy theories,â unless you consider physics kooky science (jet fuel cannot melt steelâalthough it does in Bushzarro world, where Doug Thompson lives, a realm where the world is flat and cell phones work miles above cell phone towers). All we want is the truth, Dougâand what you and the Bushites are doling out is certainly not the truth. Dare I say, you should be ashamed of yourself for not only buying into the official fairy tale but dissing those of us out here asking questions as self-serving flim-flam artists. Since we will not shut up and go away until we get the truth, I suggest you turn your attention to other subjects over at Capitol Hill Blue, subjects not likely to offend Verizon and Best Western.

Nine Eleven: A Response to Doubting Doug

Nine Eleven: A Response to Doubting Doug Friday April 14th 2006, 5:56 pm Doug Thompson, editor and publisher of Capitol Hill Blue, has slipped into warp drive. He believes you and Iâthose who believe the government was complicit or behind the attacks of nine elevenâare âfruitcakes, lemmings and scam artists.â Iâm not sure why Thompson has become so enraged at those of us who donât buy the official version (a fairy tale) and why he assumes we are either crazed tinfoil hatters or snake oil salesmen looking for a quick buck (and believe me, if youâre interested in making a quick buck, youâd have more luck going door-to-door as a hawker of Amway products). His venom leads me to believe something is going on behind the scenes. I find it remarkably strange that Thompson believes his government is capable of setting up a police state, while on the other is unable to grasp the idea that very same government would kill its own citizens, as it has slaughtered thousands and thousands of Iraqis (and millions of Asians before the latest round of serial murder). Letâs take a look at Thompsonâs latest ârantâ (as he dubs his column): âThose who buy into such nutcase causes dishonor the memory of every man, woman and child who died on that horrible day. Even worse, they become willing pawns for the quick-buck scammers who use such events to line their own pockets.â No, Doug, you dishonor them with your inability to think beyond the official, government sanctioned versionâa mostly flat wave version that would have never emerged if the families of the victimsâin particular, the âJersey Girls,â Kristin Breitweiser, Patty Casazza, Lorie Van Auken, and Mindy Kleinbergâhad not leaned on the Bushites. Is Lorie Van Auken a fruitcake? âAt first, we widows didnât want to be seen with conspiracy people. But they kept showing up. They cared more than those supposedly doing the investigating. If you ask me, theyâre just Americans, looking for the truth, which is supposed to be our right,â Van Auken told New York Magazine. But then maybe Ms. Van Auken is a scam artist like the rest of us determined to get at the truthâdedicated lemmings going over the edge. Dare I say, Doug, you dishonor âthe memory of every man, woman and child who died on that horrible dayâ with your inability to consider the common sense fact nineteen Arab hijackers were unable to violate the laws of physics on nine eleven? âYou all too often find these wackos on web sites that also promote anti-Semitism and hateâthe ones that claim the Holocaust didnât happen and blame everything bad that happens on some vast âZionistâ conspiracy.â Okay, letâs face itâDoug Thompson is a neocon, or at least he comes off sounding like one, regardless of his previous and admirable rants against the squashing of the Constitution and the emergent police state. Doug, check out the Scholars for 9/11 Truth, all respected professionals, and not an anti-Semite among them. Not all skeptics believe nine eleven was a âZionistâ conspiracy and it is remarkably unfair, even illogical and desperate, for you to claim such a thing. Itâs a bankrupt accusation and really doesnât stick anymore. You may want to consult your new friends, the neocons, for more effective talking points. âCheck out the web sites that promote the various, and ridiculous conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11 and you will find that just about all of them ask for money. The same is true for the so-called ânewsâ sites that support these outlandish conspiracy fantasies.â I notice Capitol Hill Blue is teeming with banner ads for corporate interests such as Verizon, the Dish Network, Best Western, TiVo, and others. I bet you put those up for free. Letâs face it, Doug. It costs money to run a website. Some of us write about other things besides nine eleven and as journalists weâd like to get paid for it. I have a donation button on my blog. Iâd like to write political commentary and get paid for it like the hacks over at the Washington Post and the New York Times. I donât consider myself a scam artist for putting up a donation button. I wonder how much of that lucrative banner income works its way to your bank account, Mr. Thompson. âAll link to the same, discredited âsourcesâ for their claims. All claim to have âevidenceâ that is nothing but flights of fancy. All, in my opinion, are scams. Iâve spent weeks searching through these web sites and read all the links to so-called âevidenceâ and I have yet to find one, single, shred of verifiable information that provides any proof that our government planned or executed the attacks.â And Lee Harvey Oswald killed JFK all on his lonesome. Youâre really showing your ignorance here, Doug. Of course there is no direct evidence the government was complicit in nine eleven. It doesnât work that way. Speaking of JFK, maybe you saw Oliver Stoneâs film on the assassination. If you did, you may remember David Ferrie, played by Joe Pesci, telling Jim Garrison: âWho did the president, who killed Kennedy, fâ man! Itâs a mystery! Itâs a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma! The fâinâ shooters donât even know! Donât you get it?â Doug, you donât get it. Governments cover up their tracks and shift blame on patsies. Iâd suggest you do a bit of history reading. Begin with Nicco Machiavelli. After you read Nicco, search for Operation Northwoods via Google. âOur government failed on many levels to respond to information that might have prevented the attacks but incompetence does not prove a conspiracy. America has a long, tainted history of getting caught with its pants down.â A couple weeks ago, after I wrote about Thompsonâs first column dissing nine eleven truth seekers, I received an email assuring me that Thompson is a Republican. Indeed, he thinks and writes like a Republicanâand a Democrat, since there ainât a lick of difference betwixt the two. It wasnât incompetence that made NORAD stand down or the towers collapse like a textbook demolition. Incompetence didnât âpullâ Building Seven. Incompetence didnât make airline wreckage (including titanium) at the Pentagon vaporize in thin air while bodies were supposedly left intact enough to get DNA from. It didnât make Flight 93 disappear in a ten foot hole in Pennsylvania. âA jury in Alexandria, Virginia, this week heard the cockpit voice tapes of United Flight 93, a hijacked airliner bound for the U.S. Capitol in Washington. The actions of passengers who knew they were going to die prevented the plane from reaching its destination.
