Today's Health/Excercise Special Message:HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius Tells LGBT Youth 'It Gets Better'WASHINGTON, DC--(ENEWSPF)--October 29, 2010. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Servicestoday released a video message yesterday from Secretary Kathleen Sebelius telling lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) youth suffering from bullying and intolerance that they are not alone, and that it will get better.The Secretary's message is in response to the recent news of young people taking their own lives after being victims of bullying because they were gay or believed to be gay.
As Secretary Sebelius says in her video message, "Don't let the bullies win and don't let them cut your future short. We need you and your talents, and whether you feel it or not, lots of people do care about you. I promise you, it gets better. Today may seem dark. But tomorrow will be brighter. And so will the day after that….And the day after that. So be strong, be safe, and know that you are loved and supported."

Take Action:
- Boycott advertisers of Glenn Beck on Fox News as well as all of FOX NEWS! Glenn has lied about Health-care, called our President a racist, and is anti-gay rights.
- We demand immediate end of DADT. It is out-right discrimination.
- Boycott Bill O'Reilly and FOX News and their advertisers. Bill discussed a French commerical by McDonalds that was meant to show that McDonalds is Gay Friendly. Bill said what is next? Is McDonalds going to get be Al-Qaida friendly as well? Further, Bill said that McDonalds would never show a gay friendly commercial in the USA. Imagine, Bill is comparing Gays to Al-Qaida!
- Boycott Arizona the home of senile - Sen. John McCain: because of their Hateful anti-Immigration Law that encourages racial profiling and increases hatred towards minorities. A remedy: Demand Republicans to support Immigration Reform. Further, Their Senator McCain voted against ending DADT and blocked Immigration reform! We shall hold the voters of Arizona responsible!
- NEW: Boycott Target and Best Buy for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations.
- NEW: Boycott Gold's Gym for donating loads of money to anti-gay candidates.

At the annual Johannesburg Gay Pride at Zoo Lake with an estimated 17,000 people attending. The theme was "We are All African"; Oct 2, 2010
London Gay Pride; July 3, 2010
29 October 2010 / FenuxeA majority of U.S. service members do not object to serving and living alongside openly gay troops, according to sources familiar with the results of a Defense Department survey.
NBC News first reported on the findings Thursday evening. The results are part of a survey that was sent to 400,000 active-duty and reserve troops in July. It included a variety of questions, including how they would feel about a gay service member living with a same-sex partner on base and whether they had shared a room or showers with openly gay troops before.
The survey was also sent to 150,000 family members of the troops, with a majority of them reportedly opposed to the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy as well. The findings also show that a minority of the troops responding to the survey strongly opposed serving with gay troops and said they would quit the military if the policy were to change. It was not clear how small that minority opposed to openly gay troops was.
The survey results are being analyzed and are expected to be included in a Pentagon report due to President Obama on Dec. 1. Defense Department officials refused comment to NBC News.
All members of "Peckers PICS" are requested to join our "Obama Biden 2008" group as it runs in conjunction to this group. Both groups shall not repeat articles from one group to another. However, to gain full knowledge of Gay rights, members must belong to the Obama group as well as this group. Therefore, please accept your invitation to join.
