LOS ANGELES, September 27, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Democratic Presidential candidate, John Kerry, granted an exclusive interview to the national homosexual activist magazine, The Advocate, on September 16.

In the preamble, Advocate writer Chris Bull describes Kerry as "an ardent gay rights supporter." "One of the original cosponsors of legislation banning discrimination based on sexual orientation," he continues, "Kerry has achieved a nearly unblemished voting record on the issue. In 1996 he was the only senator up for re-election to vote against the antigay Defense of Marriage Act. Three years earlier he went before the Senate Armed Services Committee to testify in favor of revoking the ban on gays and lesbians in the military."

"I was the only elected senator up for reelection to oppose the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996," Kerry boasted in the interview. "It was a tough position to take, but I took it because I thought [the bill] was outright gay bashing. My support for the Employment Non-Discrimination Act and civil unions has been complete."

Kerry outlined his support for hate-crimes legislation, similar to Canada's Bill C-250: "I think we can pass" hate crimes legislation, he said.

When asked if he thought the Senate could muster the votes to block an amendment to the constitution to ban homosexual marriage, Kerry said, "I will oppose any constitutional amendment."

"I approve of gay adoption. I approve of gay parenting," he said.

The Democrat presidential candidate described Supreme Court Justice Scalia's dissent in the Lawrence v. Texas case that legalized sodomy for the state as an "extreme, homophobic, mean-spirited dissent."

Kerry criticized President Bush's abstinence message for preventing HIV/AIDS: "The president's HIV/AIDS policy is a cave-in to the right wing. It defies common sense and reason. It's a completely craven posture about how the world works and how life works."

Hello paging the commercial writers

[TheBigB]

Plenty of fodder for advertising in heavily Catholic swing areas of the midwest.

"The president's HIV/AIDS policy is a cave-in to the right wing. It defies common sense and reason. It's a completely craven posture about how the world works and how life works."

Very interesting statement..............so how does the world work and how does life work in Kerry's world?

[G.Mason]

Yeah, and the first question by the homosexual reporter was ...

"Golly gee wiz ... I've never had sex with a presidential candidate, never mind one that is orange. May I"?

[weegee]

What's next? An interview with a "sploshing" or BDSM magazine? Swinger trade publications?

Celebrate perversity.

Catholic Ping - let me know if you want on/off this list

"The president's HIV/AIDS policy is a cave-in to the right wing. It defies common sense and reason. It's a completely craven posture about how the world works and how life works."

Yeah. Send $15 Billion. Fund and praise the only program (Uganda's) in Africa that's actually been able to reduce infection rates. Yeah, that's real posturing.

"Kerry gives exclusive interview to homosexual activist magazine?"...
ohhhh that'll really pull in the undecided registered Independent voters!!!
What do the idiots at the DNC use for brains?
M&M's... LMAO

At this point, the only way W can lose this election is if he's caught in bed with a live boy or a dead girl!!!

[cyncooper]

Please tell me they didn't put him on the cover and airbrush him...

[weegee]

Oh Kerry's a "supporter" alright...

[Pearls Before Swine]

Looking for votes in all the wrong places.... (set to music)

[weegee]

the left figured that only homosexuals would learn of Kerry talking to a homosexual publication. Who else would admit to reading it?

Same policy accepted by beer companies like Coors and Budweiser when they run ads like this:

[IamConservative]

"It's a completely craven posture about how the world works and how life works."

One could say the same thing precisely about homosexuality.

[kellynla]

no pictures please

[Rebel_Ace]

That is EXACTLY the hard hitting, penetrating, in depth interview that Kerry was looking for.

[clee1]

You owe me a keyboard! (I just hurled all over it.)

[weegee]

It is a lot easier for people to accept that Bud and Coors advertise in gay only publications when they don't have to consider what such advertising looks like.

Other people choose to boycott such corporations that celebrate perversity.
