Tom McClusky of the Family Research Council:
“It was argued during his two terms in office that Bill Clinton was ‘our first black President’ because of his supposed liberal policies that would benefit African-Americans … shouldn’t Barack Obama already be our ‘first gay President’ due to his liberal policies pushing the homosexual agenda?”
Um… really? The same day that the FRC bigots were slamming Barack Obama for pushing “the homosexual agenda,” the Obama administration’s DOJ filed a brief—echos of the administration’s notorious DOMA brief—aggressively defending DADT, the law that Barack “Fierce Advocate” Obama supposedly wants to repeal. What it means (someone isn’t pushing the homosexual agenda), why it’s galling (Obama’s SOTU?), and a full run down of reactions (even the lapdogs at HRC are pissed) at Towleroad.
Ah, witness the true terrorism that faces America today. Funny how their side is so concerned with terrorists from other countries, when the real terrorism exists right here at home from the likes of the religious zealots/bigots.
Alas, that’s what has been plaguing their party for decades: Lack of an ability to see who/what they truly are.
FRC, DOJ, DOMA, DADT, SOTU, HRC? I never want to read that many acronyms in one paragraph ever again. Mind scrambled.
Dear Mercury: Just because a crazy nutbag in cowboy boots, Teddy Ruxpin Underoos, and a Superman cape stands on the corner flingin’ poo doesn’t mean we have to pay them any mind.
