But I will be the first to tell you... had Rep Foley approached my 17-year-old child, I would have personally ripped his nuts from his body and fed them to him.<BR/><BR/>This is not about homosexuality. It's about a 50-something man who can't keep his pedophillic fantasy life out of the halls of Congress.backtalkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14723366997084596463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1162316843362837662006-10-31T12:47:00.000-05:002006-10-31T12:47:00.000-05:00Then you are clearly out of touch with the legal history of the words "crimes against nature."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1162295031793278682006-10-31T06:43:00.000-05:002006-10-31T06:43:00.000-05:00That ad clearly refers to the page scandal- not homosexuality.<BR/><BR/>Makes me wonder what you are all so sensitive about???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1162263826810433642006-10-30T22:03:00.000-05:002006-10-30T22:03:00.000-05:00perhaps AI could find and publicize all the Indiana Republican ads hollering against "gay marriage"?

Especially since I just wrote an editorial about how his campaign had been more upstanding and positive than Souders.<BR/><BR/>I also can't believe he said this - this really doesn't sound like Hayhurst at all.<BR/><BR/>Sigh.

Democrats have two openly gay House candidates who are likely to win re-election: Baldwin and Frank. None whatsoever for the GOP - closet cases all. Most GOP candidates are fulminating against same-sex marriage hoping to use homophobia to return to the Bush Rubber Stamp Congress. Rotten platform plank!<BR/><BR/>Souder's prize voters are probably unhappy to have learned about all the Sodomites working in <I>top</I> positions for Republicans in DC. Coddling the catamites?<BR/><BR/>Considering the massive official Republican Party expenditures hammering against "gay marriage", any Log Cabin Republicans should be ashamed to even try to suggest parity of homophobia. Last week, the Indiana House GOP candidates had a big press conference promsing action against "gay marriage".

The issue here is not what Souder's position on gay rights is. It's a double-standard whereby liberal Democrats have been given a pass to use the Foley issue to foment anti-gay bigotry for the benefit of their campaigns against their Republican opponents--at the same time they condemn Republican candidates for using gay marriage as a wedge issue.Gary R.

I'm going to at least say there's a possibility that that is the case. Plus, is Souder really a proponent of gay rights? You're grasping for straws on this one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
