SAN FRANCISCO SLURS BIKERS

 THE SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE mistakenly linked the Soldiers For Christ Motorcycle gang whose members have been indicted for numerous crimes by the California A.G. s Office, with the Bikers for Christ .The Chronicle story mistakenly included a link to the website of Bikers for Christ, and the michaelsavage.com website accompanied its link with a photograph of a Bikers for Christ member.

The following statement needs to be made: Bikers for Christ is a bona fide Christian ministry with chapters all over the U.S. and overseas, and does not have any affiliation to Set Free Soldiers whatsoever.

PORNO PARADE PROMOTED

SAN FRANCISCO (LifeSiteNews.com) - When LifeSiteNews.com (LSN) last week contacted Mike Setto, the Michigan party store owner who helped spark a nationwide protest of Miller (now MillerCoors) beer in October 2007, following their sponsorship of the Folsom Street Fair, he was stunned to hear that MillerCoors had purchased a centerfold advertisement in this year's program.Last year Miller apologized for their association with the "disrespectful" activities the fair is known for. Those who spearheaded the boycott that provoked the apology had been led to believe that the issue was satisfactorily put to rest and that Miller would no longer associate itself with the sadomasochistic sex fair.

PILING ON PALIN

The following are a few examples of the extreme media excess regarding the old media's coverage of  Governor Sarah Palin. It is without a doubt motivated by nothing more than pernicious sexism so deeply ingrained in the culture that it is hardly noticed by the purveyors of same.


On Today Show, Andrea Mitchell Uses Tina Fey to Pick on Palin On Monday's Today show, NBC's Andrea Mitchell loved Tina Fey's parodying of Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live so much that she played a clip the 30 Rock star mocking Palin's inexperience while simultaneously airing an actual clip of Palin being interviewed by Katie Couric, as Mitchell charged: "The reviews have been withering for her interview with Katie Couric, only her third since nominated." However Mitchell didn't bother to air clips from SNL that mocked the Democratic side, most notably one that made fun of Barack Obama's relationship with Tony Rezko. And proving the old adage that the best way for a Republican or conservative to get air-time in the liberal media is to criticize a fellow Republican, Mitchell underscored so-called conservative critiques of Palin: "Palin's critics now include some conservatives commentators. On the National Review Web site, Kathleen Parker called on Palin to drop out."

DEATH PENALTY FOR APOSTATES

Two Iranian Christians were charged with "apostasy" and several others arrested as Iran's parliament approved a bill making the death penalty mandatory for those so convicted.

The measure is part of a new penal code that easily passed in parliament in a 196-7 vote on September 9. Christian and Baha'i communities are most likely to be affected by the bill.

But one source told Compass Direct News that when he discussed the apostasy section with some members of parliament, they said they were unaware of it. The source argued that the Iranian government was trying to bury the bill in the 113-page penal code.

HORSE OF A DIFFERENT COLOR - CLINTON VS. BIDEN

Fact check: Biden spins a helicopter tale
By CALVIN WOODWARD
WASHINGTON -When Joe Biden tells voters he understands the threat posed by Afghan extremists, he dramatically illustrates one reason why: His helicopter was "forced down" on "the superhighway of terror." Actually, snow, not the enemy, persuaded the helicopter pilot to land and wait out a storm.
The Democratic vice presidential candidate has repeatedly left that part out, in an episode that Republicans hope will become an echo of Hillary Rodham Clinton's errant tale during the primaries of landing in Bosnia under sniper fire.
