This passes as 'news' on CNN.com: "[Rev.] Joel Osteen: Homosexuality is a sin."

[CurtEastPoint]

Well, CNN... FUCK YOU. And oh, yeah, Joel? FUCK YOU, TOO!

I am so sick of this shit. Who gives a shit what some minister thinks?


And his bimbette wife is on there, too. Remember this lovely story about her 'hissy fit'?

Osteen and her family were on Brown's flight from Houston to Vail, Colo., two years ago when, according to court documents, witnesses said Osteen became upset about a spill on the armrest of her first-class seat. She asked the flight attendants to clean up the spill and when they did not respond quickly enough, Osteen became confrontational, according to documents filed in the civil case that goes to trial today.

The lawsuit, filed in Harris County Civil Court in Houston, alleges that Victoria Osteen "shoved, grabbed and pulled the flight attendants." The suit goes on to claim that Osteen elbowed Brown, who was the flight manager, while allegedly trying to get into the cockpit of the airplane.

Brown's attorney, Reginald McKamie, contends that Osteen has a dark side that the trial will expose. His client, he said, was forced into civil court because Continental did not call police when the incident happened. Osteen and her family were asked to leave the flight; Osteen was later fined $3,000 by the Federal Aviation Administration for interfering with a flight crew member.

9. I hate that guy.

He's on the CBS channel right after the CBS talking head show, and I nearly throw up when I'm slow to change the channel to the ABC talking head show and have to hear his treacly tones.
