Talk about overexposure. I'm afraid tomorrow I'll wake up and see the followign Yahoo News headline: "Lady GaGa requests audience with the Pope to discuss Church sex abuse scandal."

If Marilyn Manson grew breasts, wore a meat dress, and devoted his career to ripping off Grace Jones, you'd have Lady Gaga, but with a bigger vocabulary, bigger balls, more talent, and less dick.

The military really needs translators that can speak all the languages in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iran.

The Don't Ask Don't Tell law has made the military fire many of those translators, due to their sexual orientation, when their rare skills were very necessary.  This hurts their ability to communicate with people, and can cost lives.  You do think that saving lives is more important than kicking gays out, right?

Most soldiers, when asked, say that they don't care about the sexual orientation of anybody in their unit.  All they care about is if they're a good soldier and have their back.

Also... reported.

Team America: World Police jumps to my mind now, reminds me to ask here why I should care what artists and performance think what the world should be like.  Remind me again why I should care what Lady Gaga wants changed.  As I see her, she is an artist whose claim to fame is to make mental disorder look trendy.  An artist who wants a bad romance wants an end to "Don't Ask, Don't Tell".  Exactly what does her thoughts on the subject that makes her thoughts lend weight to this subject?

So that she can express support or opposition of the practice?  Considering she is pushing for an end of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" she might want to go even further and lobby for MAMBLA.

I need to edit this sometime.  I just seems like the above could be flaggable, for some reason.  Ok, I need to add this: The comment above connects to the instability I see in Lady Gaga, NOT that someone who wants to end "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" would normally support MAMBLA.

Do you always have to say the perfect thing?

Also, I miss your Real Talks. They were by far the funniest things to ever grace this community.

Sounds like a sixties thing;..I did not told my parents you were 'black';

Hope it doesn't pass...sounds very not-USA.

@richardhutnik

You called homosexuality a mental disorder and called homosexuals paedophiles. I hope somebody bans you.

I think its great that she's taken up the right side of this issue rather than making more horrible music.

Am I the only one thinking before opening this topic that it's something about people questioning if she is woman ? :)
