Porno Pete Is Pissed At Southern Baptist Head Albert Mohler For Admitting That Gays Exist [AUDIO]
October 16, 2015 Crackpots, Infighting Is Funny
Porno Pete is furious with Southern Baptist Seminary head Albert Mohler for denouncing ex-gay torture. Because in doing so, Mohler has conceded that homosexuality is an actual thing. Seriously. Miranda Blue has the quote at Right Wing Watch:
“Al Mohler has given credence to the idea of homosexual sexual orientation. And we know that sexual orientation is a political construct, it’s something that’s helped the homosexual movement advance. Because if people feel that people who struggle with homosexuality have a natural so-called orientation, they of course believe that they’re not really responsible for their behavior as much as they would be for any other sin. So, once again, we start treating this particular sin as a special sin needing all sorts of special terminology and semantics and caveats that are not biblical. And I think he’s starting to go down that route and it troubles me, because he’s probably regarded as the leading intellectual, one of them, in the evangelical Christian movement.”

He sucks it, feels guilty about sucking it, then gets a hate-on for The Gays who are able to live their lives out in the open. Loud and proud. If he wasn't such a repugnant little worm I might feel sorry for him.

Sexual orientation is far from a political construct. It is also far from a sin since it is innate. If these people want to live their lives according to their book of magic and mythology, they are free to do so. What they aren't free to do is to insist non believers adhere to their mythology.
They also fail to recognize that religion is a social construct. But, given their lack of self reflection and insight, it isn't all that surprising.

I would call it ignorance more than a political construct. But, I can see where it could be considered a political construct. It's still different than innate qualities. If these people are calling it a political construct, it's because they are fearful of losing their privilege.

But Eugene will always hold a special place in my heart, if for no other reason than inventing that warehouse teeming with long haired men with earrings (shirtless and sweaty, no doubt) loading up trucks with gay propaganda! If I didn't know it would thrill him too much I'd turn that into the basis of a porn story (which it probably was in his head). I haven't settled on a title yet anyway since "It Was A Dark And Stormy Night" is already taken. "Pubic Advocate #1"?

So by his reasoning since the Bible never mentioned putting man on the moon, the invention of cars, elevator, coca cola and dildoes then they cannot exist? The bible doesn't mention Catholicism, Buddhism or Hinduism so they don't exist? What the fuck is wrong with this man.

As god's special little Christ-warrior flowers, it's the only way they have of trying to prevent the spankings of god, i.e. floods, droughts, hurricanes, earthquakes, and other natural disasters... all while squawking about how homosexuality is unnatural.
If we, as per his statement, supposedly don't exist, then PP has nothing to worry about, does he? Does he also fight the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy?

Their behavior is so much knee-jerk reaction that I question whether they "believe" or "believe in" anything at all. They never think before engaging their vocal tracts and making fools of themselves once again. To me, belief includes a modicum of thought about the tenets you claim to hold ever so deeply and ever so sincerely, but it's clear that there's little or no thought in hate-brains.

And don't forget, your god can't stop us, but us homos & lesbos apparently cause hurricanes, tornado, floods and droughts. Maybe its time you stopped attempting to fuck with us!

P.S.2. As for "So, once again, we start treating this particular sin as a special sin needing all sorts of special terminology and semantics and caveats that are not biblical." What's that Peter LaBarbaric? I was distracted by your sins violating Matthew 6 & 7, Luke 6, Romans 13, Proverbs 6, Exodus 20 & a whole lot more condemning liars, those who are sodomites (one who is inhospitable), & discriminators to Hell & demanding everybody ignore & treat your sins as special sins needing all sorts of special terminology & semantics & caveats that are not biblical. Oh right; I'm forgetting that reich-wing "Christians" are allowed to violate the alleged "word" of their human made "God" whenever they want but everybody else must & will adhere to every single word of it how they (reich-wing "Christians") demand & command.

Peter LaBarbera has given credence to the idea of Christian religious beliefs. And we know that religious beliefs are a political construct, it's something that's helped the Christian movement advance. Because if people feel that people who struggle with Christianity have a natural, so-called "sincere religious belief," they of course believe that they're not really responsible for their behaviour as much as they would for any other belief. So, once again, we start treating this particular belief as a special belief needing all sorts of special terminology and semantics and caveats that are not rational. And, I think he's starting to go down that route and it troubles me, because he's probably regarded as one of the poorer voices, one of them, in the evangelical Christian movement.
Fixed that for you.

LaBarbera would not be a success as the proprietor of a mega-church. His quoted words do not constitute a good sermon.
Edit: I say that because LaBarbera's incessant yap about "sin" makes him sound more like a preacher man than a genuine, certified hater. Both categories are scum, of course, but still!

But it's quite all right for Christians to get a pass for their behavior, because all they have to do is claim they're "forgiven," right Pete? And you want that special right to be reserved exclusively for Christ-eaters. Have I got that right?

But Pete is on the hefty side and his thighs are likely too big for standard issue assless chaps. He'll have to have them custom made, not some dreck from IM.

KENTUCKY: Westboro Pickets “Adulterer” Kim Davis
October 19, 2015 Hate Groups, Infighting Is Funny, Religion
As they threatened several days ago, this morning Westboro Baptist is picketing “adulterer” Kim Davis outside the courthouse in Rowan County, Kentucky.
“That man that Kim Davis is living with, and calling her husband, IS NOT! Her husband is Dwain Wallace, who she married when she was 18-years-old,” read a press release from Westboro, according to WPMT-TV. “It does not matter how many years you pile on! It was adultery at the beginning, adultery in the middle and it is indeed adultery today!” Westboro began sending statements, tweets and images with messages aimed at Davis on Friday, proclaiming that “the duty of all mankind is to OBEY the laws of God and the laws of man” and claiming that Davis has broken her marriage vows. “Christianity is not a smorgasbord religion – you don’t pick what you like & leave the rest,” the group wrote in one message.
Yesterday Westboro picketed three Louisville churches as a ‘warm-up” to this morning’s protest.

Why is the word "adulterer" in scare quotes?
Kim appears to have all her bonafides nicely lined up.
1. Thrice divorced.
2. Four times married.
3. Twins born out of wedlock.
4. Issues "adulterated" marriage licenses.

If you really look at WBC you will find out that the above is pretty much the truth. They seem to believe that they are the only true Christians in the world. Jerry Falwell is on their list of people being in hell, if that's any indication of how 'far out' there they are.

“Christianity is not a smorgasbord religion – you don’t pick what you
like & leave the rest,” the group wrote in one message.
It's nice to hear christers say this, but I wonder whether WBC aren't doing a lillte pickin' and leavin' themselves. If you are to follow ALL the rules of the bible, there's not time to do much else. Women? Shut up and hide in your menstruation huts. Children? Shut up and take the rod like SkyDaddy commands. Men? Shut up and work to provide for your family. NO PRAYING IN PUBLIC. NO JUDGEMENT OF OTHERS.
Seems to me that WBC aren't following the bible after all...

The best line: "Christianity is not a smorgasbord religion – you don’t pick what you like & leave the rest,”. If you're claiming to be a Christian, that line should say something to you. As for the rest of us, we don't really give a damn what your buybull says.

"human decency" evolves along with humans. Beating your children was considered normal and to be expected at one time. Death by stoning common place. I don't say religion is necessary, but it had it's place. If he did exist, Christ was considered to be a dangerous wild eyed liberal in his day. Still is in some circles. The wrong wing insists on devolving.

Anyone notice they modified the "No H8" logo for their own use? Not very creative, are they, if they have to steal a logo that goes against their "message" and adulterate it to meet their own divisive and judgmental attitudes. Last time I checked, judgment is also a sin just like divorce, remarriage and same-sex relationships.

10 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband. 11 But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife.
I Corinthians 7:10-11
https://www.biblegateway.com/p...
It's pretty plain and simple in God's Holy and Inspired Word. No remarriage after divorce (and no divorce instituted by men). It doesn't matter if he beats you or runs around on you, you must remain single until either you or he die.

Well, this is one case where they're not wrong. She's trying to have her Christian cake and eat it too by claiming that she's not living in sin because her multiple divorces and (re)marriages happened before she converted. She's the one who chose the rules and claims to live with them.

I wonder if Kim would be all right with the Westboro folks telling her that her marriage(s) are invalid and refusing to let her get married ever again (invalidating whats there of course).
After all, its just God's authority right?

I believe they make their money by provoking people into assaulting them at their demonstrations, then suing for damages. Several of them are lawyers.
But it does seem like they've had fewer demonstrations since the men booted the founder's daughter from a leadership role (because she's a woman, ya can't have one of them leading men fer cryin' out loud....). And counter-protesters are more careful to not touch them. So yeah, I don't know where they're getting their funding these days. It's probably drying up.

"Christianity is not a smorgasbord religion - you don't pick what you like & leave the rest."
Does this mean Westboro has finally stoned Shirley Phelps-Roper to death for giving birth to her bastard-son Sam out of wedlock?
Maybe not a smorgasbord...perhaps more of a salad bar....

This is ironic:
Phelps-Roper said Monday that divorce and remarriage is equivalent to living in adultery and that Davis’ first marriage is her only legitimate union. If Davis has truly come to Christ, she would divorce her current husband and put her marriages in the past, Phelps-Roper said.
In the meantime, she argued that Davis is obligated to follow the law and issue licenses because “God hates oath breakers just like he hates adultery and he hates same-sex marriage.” Phelps-Roper said Davis should instead protest same-sex marriage on her own time.

Many of the immediate Phelps family members are attorneys, so I guess it's not too surprising that they support the letter of the law even while opposing equal rights.
Maybe there should be a cage fight between Shirley Phelps-Roper and Mat Staver.

A while back, when people finally stopped being scared of WBC and/or taking them seriously, gay organizations started using WBC as a fundraiser. The orgs would sell tickets for however long the buyer thought WBC would stay. Perhaps Miss Kim could get some of her hillbilly friends to start the same thing to raise those much-needed bucks for her.

Westboro Sings Kentucky Woman For Kim Davis [VIDEO]
October 19, 2015 Hate Groups, Infightintg Is Funny
As I reported early this morning, Westboro Baptist is picketing “adulterer” Kim Davis today outside the Rowan County Courthouse. Watch below as they adapt the lyrics of Neil Diamond’s 1967 hit Kentucky Woman. “And God hates her. She knows God hates her. Kentucky woman, she’s constantly changin’ her name.”

If anyone had heard or read the oral arguments of Snyder v. Phelps, with Margie Phelps arguing on behalf of the Phelps (and won), they'd have a hard time believing the Westboro elders actually believed in what they preach. They are a family of attorneys who are extremely knowledgeable in First Amendment issues and perfectly capable of both decorum and logical thinking. Fred Phelps was a civil rights lawyer for goodness' sake. The protests are scams that are outrageous on purpose and intended to encourage First Amendment rights infringements and to incite violent reactions so they can collect their pay in court.
Ever notice that WBC hardly ever protests gay events anymore? Anti-gay protests at gay events are no longer novel or controversial, as a matter of fact it has become as much of a fixture as drag queens and go-go dancers in floats. The gay community has become too aware of WBC they simply shrug them off. They now protest funerals, concerts, and of course, Kim Davis, most of whose supporters are perhaps at best vaguely aware of WBC and it is sure to rouse some rabbles. Of course, I wouldn't shed a tear if they piss off just the wrong hick with some itchy knuckles, and neither would I be too sorry if the Kim Davis Fandom ends up paying hefty damages.

This is a pattern observed in all fundamentalist groups. The real venom is saved for other fundamentalists who are deemed not pure enough. Targeting outside groups - gays, other religions, mainstream Christians -- are just the starter campaigns. Ultimately, outsiders are considered sinners and beyond caring about. It's between two groups that profess to be holier than each other where the real blood wars break out.
See European history, post-Protestant Reformation, circa 1524-1648

Kim Davis gets the "F cubed" (full frontal fundamentalist) treatment. As a wise Roman remarked, "No wild animal is as dangerous to man as the Christians are to each other." They've always harbored a special hatred for those they consider heretics.

Ben Carson: America Needs To Stop Pretending That Every Lifestyle Has The Same Value [AUDIO]
October 8, 2015 2016 Election, Crackpots
Via Mediaite:
Still reeling from his recent assertion that he would “not just stand there and let [the gunman] shoot me” if he had been present for last week’s Oregon shooting, Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson moved on to a new controversial topic during an interview with SiriusXM Patriot host and frequent Fox News contributor David Webb on Wednesday. Asked by Webb how he would address the “epidemic” of single-parent households in this country, Carson stressed the benefits of “traditional families.” “We have got to stop paying attention to the PC Police who say every lifestyle is exactly of the same value. No, it’s not of the same value,” Carson answered. “It is very clear that intact, traditional families with traditional, intact values do much better in terms of raising children. So let’s stop pretending that everything is of equal value.”

I hate the word "lifestyle" when referring to a person's life.
Being born LGBT is not a "lifestyle" it's just a life.
Being a single Mom is not a "lifestyle" it's just a life.
and all these lives have as much value as everyone else.
Religion, however, is a lifestyle and a choice.
Fuck you Ben Carson.

When a Christianist says not every "lifestyle" has the same value, they are really saying is not every citizen has the same value.
"Fuck you!" is the appropriate and constitutional response.

Actually, they are not the same sky daddy. In the Sistine Chapel the rc sky daddy has a grandpa face as he reaches out to Adam. One cannot portray the muslim sky daddy without fear of death and some have been murdered recently for doing so.

I was at a clergy meeting that took place right after a Pat Robertson brain fart. Evangelicals are having a destructive effect on Christianity, so one of the pastors jokingly suggested that we could increase attendance by putting signs outside the churches, saying "Whatever Pat Robertson Believes, We Don't."

Only exotic, outrageous, and unusual things are news. "Plane crashes at airport" is news, but "plane lands safely at airport" is not. News about moderate and liberal Christians is in the "plane lands safely" category. Whether or not it is in the news, you wouldn't notice because of the snooze factor.

There were three waves of the Reformation. Luther was the first one. The third and last one began with the Anabaptists. If you take church history in seminary, it's called "the radical reformation" and it is the historical ancestor of evangelicalism. (The pedigree is Anabaptist -> stuff left out -> Puritans -> Baptists, and later evangelicals.) The third wave is where the make-up-your-own-church idea really took root.

Those same morons don't understand that the "under God" part of the pledge didn't come about until the mid 50's. They have zero understanding of the lengths the Founders went to to ensure that there was no favored religious establishment. I think one of the most disappointing things coming out of idiots like Trump and Carson running for an office they are clearly not fit to hold is that we are seeing how many Americans actually believe the dumb shit Carson says and the xenophobic hate that Trump spews. Truly sad.

They don´t have the guts to say exactly what they think because it would be imediately clear even to some conservative people the stark monstruosity of their words: "not every person has the same value". This is the exactly thinking that is used for ethnical os social cleansings, to mass murders and to every genocide in history. When you say that blacks or jews or gays or whatever are harming society, the logical follow up (and they say it more then often) is: we need to save society. And how they intend to do it? THAT is anyones guess, and that is how you create the environment to genocide.

Nevertheless, some well-meaning religious folks will patiently explain that they don't refer to the person, just their "lifestyle". Question them further and you'd find that what they want for LGBT people is the celibate "lifestyle". Can't enforce that by law but that's not due to their lack of trying.

I still have as of yet to have one single religious person who refers to the "gay lifestyle" tell me what they think that that comprises, apart from possibly the buttsex.
Given how little (wahhhh!) buttsex I have, I hardly think it could possibly qualify as a lifestyle. And does that mean that I am not living the gay "lifestyle" unless I am actively engaged in the hot buttsex?

No. By gay "lifestyle" they mean you have anonymous buttsex with 1000 strangers a year and if you say you are gay then that's your "lifestyle" regardless of how you actually live your life.

And if you listen to bullies they often (usually?) think of themselves as victims. A friend noted when the anti-bullying campaign started recently that no one thinks of himself as a bully. For example, anti-gay bullies think of themselves as being victimized by the presence of people they perceive to be gay.

I worry a lot about that too. In recent years I have heard a constant rise of right-wingers demonizing Muslims, gays, secularists and immigrants. Apparently if you are not a Bible-thumping, White America born heterosexual you are plague on this nation and "something needs to be done about it." "Like what?" you might ask. Well unfortunately these types always talk about "Second Amendment solutions". Obviously that means they would have no problem killing us.

xtians may be the majority religion in this country, but there are just so many different kinds. i guarantee you that any second civil war with one side counting upon these people to lead and hold a united xtian theocracy in this country? if it depends on most xtians, it's a lost cause. they could never agree on who should lead them.

I don't believe that "lifestyles" exist. Whoever coined that word did us a huge disservice.
A psychologist studied people who react badly to gays. He found that the emotion they felt was not inappropriate fear (phobia), but inappropriate disgust (racism). He concluded that homophobia is a misnomer. It's not really a phobia, it's a form of racism. (Homophobes are more perverse than we thought!) Yes, I know we are not a race, but for psychological and sociological purposes, we have that role in society.

I hate it too, but only because it's not applied to everyone.

It's like the idiocy that only non-straights have a sexual orientation, or only non-whites have a race, or only some religions count as "real" religions.

Suggested comebacks:
Someone bellows, "I don't approve of the gay lifestyle." You say, "What part of it do you not like, the grocery shopping?"
Someone loudly announces, "I don't approve of same-sex marriage." You say, equally loudly, Oh, so YOU'RE the one! You're the Approval Authority of the Universe! I wondered who that was."
Someone yells out, "I don't approve of same-sex marriage." You say, "If you're not one of the people, it's none of your business, so why do you care?"

Ben Carson, who grew up in a single family home, went on to become a successful neurosurgeon. I would think that he would recognize that people can go on to achieve great things despite their upbringings, whether it's from having multiple parents, one parent or no parents.
On the other hand, listening to this man talk indicates he's a complete idiot.

Reminds me of a couple of men I met in a restaurant around that time. All they did was buy and sell properties at higher prices. They castigated me for living in one condo and just sitting on the equity.
I'd bet by now they're in hock with multiple mortgages and possibly bankrupt.
I'm still in that same condo in Dupont, and I paid off the mortgage.
A little greed isn't so wrong, but after a point, it will have consequences.

I worked for years in the tax assessment field. One of the older blowhards who'd been around since the early fifties used to go on about just that, using the equity in one's home for investment purposes. But another of the old guys advised not to do it; if you want to invest the equity in your home, then sell out, move to a cheaper place, and invest the difference in price, but never risk the roof over your head by exposing it to the vagaries of Wall Street.

What the fuck does this have to do with being the President? This judgmental bastard needs to be asked about how he would handle trade with China. He needs to be asked what qualities he would look for in Supreme Court nominations. He needs to be asked what he thinks about bloated military budgets and toys the armed services spends billions on that don't work. He needs to be asked if he is going to destroy the Postal Service. He needs to be asked what the hell good he would do for the American people if he was President. And I can answer the last one for him. No fucking good! His bigotry and religious biases aren't worth shit.

He was on NPR's Marketplace Money last night. His answer to balance the budget was an across the board cut of 4% to every Govt program. That interview was so painful to listen to. Carson is ignorant on so many levels. To imagine he is a current contender for the Republican presidential nomination speaks volumes on how stupidity is currently worshiped by the GOP.

Even if that were true, there are millions of children who do not have an "intact" family. What happens to them? People like Carson live in a fantasy world where their ideal is the norm and the millions of people for whom that ideal isn't ever going to happen are ignored. And what's most bizarre about this is that unlike Jeb Bush, he didn't grow up in that fantasy world.

What "lifestyles" is the House Negro Uncle Tom Dr. Carl Vaernet wannabe talking about? Goth, preppy, jock, country, bohemian? Those are lifestyles.
Under American law, the American government is required to treat every citizen equally and every family equally. That is NOT "PC", that is American law. The religious-reich's cries about "PC" shows their Aryan mentality that there are human beings of less or no value to them and therefore should be treated as such. That mentality is uncivilized and ACTUALLY of NO value to this world.
There are many studies that say children do just as well if not better with single gender parents. Children deserve at least one parent who will love, protect and provide for them unconditionally. If children have two, what is in between their parents legs is irrelevant. Educated civilized people understand that.
4month old Gabriel Crystalus was taken from his adoptive lesbian moms and given back to his teenage bio-mom and dad and he died from neglect. 4yo Zachary Dutro was killed by his anti-gay bio mother and her boyfriend - in other words raised by a man and a woman. 3yo Ronnie Paris was killed by his anti-gay "Christian" bio father and his mother watched. Jed Maddalon from NC was born to heterosexual parents who chained him to a bed and barely fed him from a dog bowl on the floor until he was rescued at 3yo. He went through 29 families by the time he was 13 who were incapable of taking adequate care of him. When he was 14 the state was ready to give up on him and throw him away like trash into a mental hospital. It was 2gay men, a couple, who rescued him from that fate of being permanently caged like an animal, gave him his 1st birthday party and raised him to be a civilized, well-mannered young adult who went to college studying to be a social worker so what happened to him will not happen to other kids treated like dogs by their heterosexual parents.
Anti-LGBT heterosexual parents, not gay ones, are the reason why there are thousands of LGBT youth living on the streets eating out of garbage cans, drug dealing and using, and prostituting themselves just to pay for a warm place to sleep and a scrap of food.
Heterosexual parents, not LGBT ones, are the reason why there are thousands of children flooding the foster/adoption system abandoned, rejected, or neglected by their hetero parents. They age out and are also reduced to living on the streets eating out of garbage cans, drug dealing and using, and prostituting themselves just to pay for a warm place to sleep & a scrap of food.
There are MILLIONS of children being raised by 2men or 2women. This ship has sailed. Get over it. These anti-LGBT arguments are ones for kidnapping children from parents you deem "inferior" simply for who they are & because they don't fit YOUR ideal just like the anti-LGBT Nazi filth Heinrich Himmler did to the parents of Europe and that will happen over our dead bodies, Anti-LGBT Inc. My second amendment right is ready and waiting to protect my family & my friends families.

Don't forget how hetero-fascists everywhere have imposed this repulsive standard of forced conformity even on other heterosexuals at different times is the past and in different cultures. Untold numbers of children removed from Romani (Gypsy) parents and sent to state orphanages to rot is still a common occurrence today in many European countries. Thousands of Aborigine children were stolen from their parents at one time in Australia's own shameful past in dealing with racial minorities ( Australian historian Robert Manne suggests "approximately 20,000 to 25,000" were removed between 1910 and 1970, based on the Australian Bureau of Statistics report of 1994). Then there were the thousands of children taken from Native American families in the United States and in Canada over the centuries, and sent to Missionary Schools to be "civilized", where they were taught to hate their own people's culture. This very old and vile game of "my family is better than your family" goes back a long, long ways. It's time to stop this bullshit.

Oddly enough, I do believe that a nuclearish family is the best environment for kids to grow up in, but circumstances often don't allow that and then people have to do the best they can. No dissing until you've walked the proverbial mile in their shoes!
And if a person's lifestyle pleases them, who the fuck is Carson to suggest it's a lower value lifestyle than his own defrocked-neurosurgeon-and-general-madman lifestyle?
And, yeah, my own lifestyle is undoubtedly low value in Carson's eyes. Fat, lazy, retired, and smokes way too much you know what. Don't like that Ben? Then fuck off.

They don't complain about single fathers, but they certainly complain a lot of about absent father. Pyiush Jindal just mentioned them and blamed the Oregon shooting on one.
There are a lot of conservatives who think many of society's ills can be blamed on "absent fathers" who selfishly abandon their children. David Blankenhorn (if Prop 8 fame) staked his entire professional career on the absurd idea that all of society's problems could be solved if he could somehow force fathers to stay with their families.

The idea that only the people you see as valuable deserve equality IS the problem.
Judge away about how much value someone else has. That's not the discussion at hand. But you don't get to use your standards of value to determine someone else's rights.

This, once "brilliant" neurosurgeon, is clearly brain damaged and it doesn't require any medical training to determine this.

The same value to whom, Ben? You? And why are you the decider of whose life is more valuable than others?
And who is America, btw? America is comprised of 300+ million individuals, each with their own lives and values. You can expect everyone to have the same bigoted, asinine values as you do, Ben.

We need to talk about it, What a sham. People have been talking about things for years now. It's like when people say, "education is the answer". A 5 year old kid knows right from wrong, it's applying the education. A 5 year old kid knows your not suppose to kill someone, yet kids kill each other, We don't need more talking or education, we need action. Sterilize the mother AND father of out of wedlock children, Start the death penalty up again, Lets do action, no more talking.

Gladys Knight – Just A Little [VIDEO]
October 8, 2015 Pop Music
The production video for a new Gladys Knight dance single is out this week. Via Billboard:
The upbeat track teams the seven-time Grammy Award winner with fellow Grammy winner and producer Symbolyc One, aka S1 (Kanye West’s “Power,” Beyoncé’s “Best Thing I Never Had.”). Written and vocal-produced by Knight protégé/R&B singer Avehre, “Just a Little” is the lead single from the singer’s 12th studio album. It’s due next year via the Empire-distributed label WCMC (When Creative Minds Collide). “We just wanted to have fun,” says Knight, who is also the newest ambassador for VH1’s Save the Music Foundation. “Most of the singles I’ve released prior to this were ballads. I wanted something we could dance to.”

When the beat of disco kicks in, it starts to take life but it doesn't last and neither does the excitement. The vocal also seems to be just ever so slightly out of sync with the rhythm...like it's trying to catch up. The entire song just doesn't feel natural.

I'm glad you guys noticed it as well. I started to wonder if I was losing it (more than usual) or if I wasn't up on some new trend of vocal lagging. It's really noticeable when the background vocalists sing the line "just a little". Yeah, it's just a little...off.

Autotune is most noticeable when it has to correct singers who are further from the pitch; at least with Gladys she's right on pitch and the computer is less noticeable. But everyone is tuned these days; the children expect it, and the labels think songs won't sell without.

I always her voice, but this song is undanceable. I saw Gladys in the 80's at the Universal Amphitheater. This was after "That's what friends are for" was released to support AIDS patients. Before the song, she stated that she felt for the patients, but just didn't understand homosexuality. This statement got a big hand from the audience. I'd like to think that she has changed.
