Larry King Goes on Pro-Gay Attack: Asks Pastor Why He Didn’t Like Boys Romantically
Newsbusters ^ | April 24, 2010 | Jeff Poor

Whatever your view on homosexuality might be as it pertains to Christianity, there's probably one place one wouldn't go to seek clarity on the issue - a Jewish TV host that's in his seventh marriage.

However, CNN, the so-called most trusted name in news, had "Larry King Live" host Larry King tackle this issue on his April 23 program in a special broadcast entitled "Can You Be Christian and Gay?" King's special featured recently-out Christian singer Jennifer Knapp, embattled former evangelical preacher Ted Haggard and Horizon Christian Fellowship Senior Pastor Bob Bostford.

But it was Bostford, who had previously been somewhat critical of Knapp's decision to go public with her sexuality, that took the brunt of the questioning from King, a TV anchor not normally known for hardball questioning, unless it involves this issue (i.e., his interview with former Miss California Carrie Prejean).

You can always count on leftists to support murder, theft, and perversion. Nothing else.

Based on reading the transcript section alone, the Christians did well at defending their position. The secular position on “love”, as in “Jesus loves everybody, right?” is that love means letting yourself and your children do whatever they want and not caring about any consequences except “me funny parts feel good now.”

Larry King is like the last man chosen in today’s NFL draft. He’s Mr. Irrelevant.

"a Jewish TV host that's in his seventh marriage."

Actually, I just heard he's out of his seventh marriage and into his seventh divorce. But who's counting.

Actually he has been married to seven women and it will be his eighth divorce (if it happens) He married one woman twice.

Hey, all 400,000 of their viewers trust them.

Less people than hit FR in one day. And whenever I go into an airport, gym or hospital, what’s on? CNN. They may not carry fox, but they’ll carry CNN. So you know a portion of the people that watch CNN don’t really want to.

CNN ratings are dropping like a stone.

:) Yes, we check in at the desk then move on to where there is no TV. Can’t stand CNN and in fact, hate sitting there listening to a bunch of clap trap like the words: The world watches and waits for this or that or some other non story they like to make into a big deal like we ALL care. We’re not robots and we don’t follow the pack. Therefore when they say something stupid like everyone is waiting to see if this one or that one is getting back together or they split or one has a “baby bump” which is one assinine statement to begin with and just plain garbage like that it is laughable. The news is more like the tabloids anymore. Cheap, sensational and all about the botoxed anchors and color coordinations with the backgrounds of the shows. So, we quit a long time ago.

Ah yes, Larry the lecherous old cuckold. I’d like to see him interview his ex-wives, and their lovers. That might get his ratings up.

They all must have said ENOUGH when this old guy showed up in the bedroom dressed in nothing but Dominatrix gear.

I had watched Larry King and although it was over five years ago, I froze his statement in memory. It was sort of a quick murmur. Herewith:

I'me a liberal democrat and we want to get rid of 'em

He was talking about Republicans, but I have to admit it may have been about a specific group. Since it is well known that there are moderates and more conservative types within that party.

This is nothing new. For a long time, the liberal media have been pushing the notion that the homosexual deathstyle is normal.
