WARNING! This is horrible but is an example of the Anti Adam anti gay rhetoric

I am not a huge fan of Rock and Roll, but I had hopes that tonight's showing would be respectfully tame. I am appalled at what I saw on my television tonight. I am disappointed that the judges chose to contradict everything they have been saying for weeks, and suddenly speak ill of Danny Gokey.

And... while I respect the opinions of all the good citizens of America, I will respectfully disagree with the decision Hollywood made to shine a light on Mr. Adam Lambert. I understand that millions of people vote for Mr. Lambert every week, but I would not let any of those millions of people near my infant son.

I would like my son to grow up in a country where he can make his own decision, the right decision, when he is at the proper age to do so. If he was at an age where he was easily influenced, I would not let him watch American Idol because of Mr. Lambert.

I and my fellow men and women pray for the end of the poison that Mr. Lambert introduces to America. While I understand that Adam has made his decision, and that he has his right to choose who he wants to be, I don't think he should have the right to flaunt his decision to millions of innocent Americans every week.

In my opinion that is wrong. It is unholy, disrespectful, selfish, and irresponsible.

Just my two sense.
God bless,
Ward

1. My wife is both an American Idol fan and an Adam Lambert fan.
If convenient, could you provide a link so I can show her.

We should start a DU 'vote for Lambert' thing. I know many here don't like AI, but I bet they will dislike those comments even more. Someone who watches the show could just post the number for everyone to call, then we could all call it over and over again.

7. The judges "suddenly spoke ill of Danny Gokey", because he
sounded like a water buffalo being fed to a threshing machine!

Jumping Jesus, where are the rocks that these people come out from?

11. The irony here is
...a lot of these same idiots bashing Adam probably fell all over themselves supporting Clay Aiken when he was on American Idol. (and then denied ever doing so when he came out last year)

I don't watch American Idol, I don't know Adam from ....... well, from Adam, and ordinarily I wouldn't give a shit one way or the other, but now I hope he wins, just to piss off the Freepers and homophobes.

13. these people are just evil.
i saw adam perform the led zeppelin cover and i had chills.
let their hate eat them up...

when i see adam (and i know this will make half of those haters scream) i see something reminiscent of elvis in him) he shines!

as for that 'person' who would not allow his/her children to watch him--why are they so damned fascinated with him to begin with? if they're wanting to perteck' their kids from him, change the damned channel.

i swear TV does not need a VCHIP but half the viewers who spout such hatred need one shoved right up ... nevermind.. you get the idea.

18. so all this shit is about being
"perceived" to be gay?

God bless that guy's two sense, especially if jesus happened to be all candied up in a handbag and matching pumps, but I would like MY son to grow up in a country where he was the ONLY person in charge of the decision to manage what he does with his very own set of gonads.

Love as thou will. who cares about the arrangement of pink parts, I mean REALLY. If you believe in an afterlife, why would you care about procreation? Especially, OTHER people's perceived willingness to procreate?

No, that guy hates the gay in himself, and you can be sure he'll probably beat the gay out of his own son if necessary. The only poison in that story is that pathetic poster who believes that whatever works for him should work for every other human and there can be no other way.

19. What "decision" is Adam "flaunting" to millions of "innocent Americans" every week?
His decision to sing?

21. Hadn't actually 'heard' Adam until about 10 minutes ago... but WOW.
I'm not an AI 'fan' per se, but Lyric pays attention, and when she finds someone she thinks has extraordinary talent, she'll play me a few of their songs.

GOD DAMN! This guy's got the goods... So yeah, this will be me, who has NEVER voted on one of these things, casting votes to Mr. Lambert, whom i want to see become the biggest success-story in AI history (sorry Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson).
