short version: OK state representative kelly kern compared homosexuals to terrorists unfavorably and she thinks there's nothing wrong with that. worse, neither does the OK republican party. long version here.
commentary: some select quotations from the speech representative kern delivered...
rep kern hatemongered:
“the homosexual agenda is destroying this nation; it's just a fact,” kern went on to say in the speech.
“i'm not gay bashing, but according to god's word that is not the right kind of lifestyle,” she said. “it has deadly consequences.”
kern then declared that “studies show that no society that has totally embraced homosexuality has lasted more than a few decades.”
in what way is the so-called “homosexual agenda” destroying this nation? everything has deadly consequences, including overeating--you going on a diet, rep kern? btw, newsflash! if you say something like “i'm not gay bashing, but...”, guess what, you are. and i'd love to know what supposed “studies” have shown that little “fact”.
but here's the real problem: state republican party officials refuse to put condemn, much less put pressure on rep kern, about those statements.
apparently, the republican part of OK is still hoping and praying that james dobson give them his blessing. another newsflash: if he hasn't yet, he isn't gonna, you mealy-mouthed hacks.
