Shortly after I published a post yesterday afternoon which focused on Miley Cyrus's growing lack of credibility (she's a teller of tall tales, after all) I found myself yelling at the old boob a few minutes later when Miley trotted out on the stage of the "Ellen Show" and proceeded to chat up a storm.
"There you go again."
In a post last week, I reported that Miley shut-down her twitter account, because she alleged threats were received from users who were angry with comments she made in support of Gay Marriage.

Since that time, Miley has been reluctant to confirm those shocking events on-camera, unless cornered to do so.
For example, when Jay Leno quizzed her about the twitter incident, she tried to change her story.
"Oh, I quit because twitter-users tweet about stupid things, like going to the bathroom," she chided in so many words.
Leno appeared to be taken aback.
"I thought it had to do with the fact you supported Gay Marriage?"
Perhaps it slipped Miley's mind?
After all, the excuse about the "Gay Marriage" comment, is the one she offered up to Parade magazine a few weeks ago.
Miley got a little flustered for a sec, then fessed up that Jay's take on it was correct.
Did she wise up to the fact that - once a comment is made on the record about a particular subject - it's probably best to stick to the original story for credibilty's sake?
No!
On Ellen's show yesterday she claimed there was another reason why she quit twitter.
Arghhh!
The perky talk show host (herself gay) probed further.
"I heard it was because you supported Gay Marriage!"
Good one!
Go in for the kill, Ellen.
"I was asked a question. So, I gave my opinion."
But her naivete really charged to the fore when she quipped:
"They were saying that love was wrong. How could love between two people be wrong?"
Huh?
Ms. Cyrus has obviously not mingled much with folks in the mainstream around the country - or for that matter, given the issue much thought - otherwise she wouldn't open her yap and make such a silly remark.
The argument for gay marriage does not hinge on the question of "Love" per se.
Contrary to what Ms. Cyrus thinks, the people she was complaining about, don't believe that love is ever "wrong".
Christians in the heartland, for instance, tend to take a cue from scriptures that teach that homosexuality - "a man lying down with another man" - is not only sinful but goes against the laws of nature.
There is a better argument to pursue that has a lot more bite in respect to the issue of "gay marriage".
For instance, there isn't any proof that the passages in the Bible Christians refer to in support of their position, are - in fact - the word of God!
Over the centuries the scriptures have been revised - and quite possibly rewritten - to meet a specific agenda of the day (or the powers-that-be).
Elsewhere in the scriptures, another passage underscores that when God calls on an individual, it is not necessary for that person to change.
The Lord accepts the individual as they are.
Miley's on the right track in many respects, but needs to step out of her protected shell - get real - and spout off accordingly.
To quote myself:
"If your actions are pure of heart, there is no harm."
Amen!
