MORE HOMOSEXUAL POLITICIANS REVEAL NEW FACE OF DEMOCRATIC PARTY

MORE HOMOSEXUAL POLITICIANS REVEAL NEW FACE OF DEMOCRATIC PARTY Laird, Leno Are First Openly Gay California State Assemblymen

Sacramento – Two homosexual men have become the first openly gay assemblymen in the California State Legislature. At a State Capitol ceremony on Monday, John Laird of Santa Cruz and Mark Leno of San Francisco were sworn in as the first male homosexual legislators in California history.

“The Democratic Party should rename itself the homosexual drag queen party, because that’s what it has become in recent years,” said Randy Thomasson, executive director of Campaign for California Families, a statewide nonprofit, nonpartisan family issues leadership organization. “Sadly, the radical gay activists are intent upon taking away the rights of average citizens. More homosexual activists as politicians mean more attacks on the sanctity of marriage, religious freedom, parental rights and the Boy Scouts.”

Increasing the self-proclaimed “Lavender Caucus” to five members, Laird and Leno join three previously-elected lesbian activist legislators: Jackie Goldberg of Los Angeles (Assembly), Christine Kehoe of San Diego (Assembly) and Sheila James Kuehl of Santa Monica (state Senate).

In recent years, the California Democratic Party (CDP) has become a loud advocate of homosexuality, bisexuality and transsexuality. Since 1999, Democrat state legislators have passed, and Governor Gray Davis has signed, more than 15 bills promoting the gay and transsexual agenda. Both the California Democratic Party and numerous California state and federal Democratic politicians opposed the Protection of Marriage Initiative (Proposition 22) on the March 2000 ballot. That same year, at the Democratic Party’s national convention in Los Angeles, many party members booed the Boy Scouts for being allowed to lead the Pledge of Allegiance.

In April 2001, the CDP passed a resolution officially supporting “civil unions” or Vermont-style homosexual marriage. In October 2001, Governor Gray Davis signed legislation awarding more than a dozen rights of marriage to homosexual “domestic partners.” During the recently-concluded 2002 election, Art Torres, the chairman of the California Democratic Party, tried to force the removal of a radio ad which educated listeners about the gay agenda targeting schoolchildren.

“The homosexual and transsexual activists have hijacked the California Democratic Party and programmed the minds of Democrat legislators to push and promote their radical agenda, even to the point of overturning the people’s vote on marriage," Thomasson said. “More homosexual legislators will mean more of their special interest agenda. This is bad news for the rights of parents and average citizens.”

You know what your drag name is, don't you? It's the name of your pet when you were growing up and your mother's maiden name.

And if that doesn't work, there's always:

Sofonda Peters
Helen Bed
Summer Clearance
Anita Mann
Sharon Cox
Anita Douche
Charity Case, and, of course

Ladies and Gentleman, for your listening pleasure, please welcome to the stage, Ms. Connie Lingus.

You forgot Anita Huggenkiss.

Anyway, who gives a damn if someone is gay or not? This kind of bigotry makes me want to puke.

I don't like discrimination, either. California has just gone off the deep end; that's all.

40 of our 58 counties voted for Bill Simon. The people of Los Angeles, Alameda & San Francisco counties rule the entire state.

If Judaism's channeling of (predominantly) male sexuality into marriage was the anchor of Western civilzation (which I believe), then how does this sense of deviatiation not contribute to its decline?

I know somewhere where a little female sexuality could be channeled. Where does that go if male sexuality is channeled into marriage?

If gays didn't...

Beat up on the Boy Scouts of America

Spread AIDS

Assault the institution of marriage

Hold pornographic parades

Claim special protected citizenship for themselves...

I guess I wouldn't give a damn, either. Call it bigotry if you like. (I puke when I hear what some people like to do with sheep.)

"Call it bigotry if you like."

It's bigotry. Also ignorance, hatred, and backwardness. In a nutshell, the Taliban.

I, as a straight man, DO NOT appreciate having a guy slap me on the backside and hit on me.

I give a damn, as a former soldier as well. Got a problem with it?
By the by, I have an uncle who is gay, and he doesn't make it a point to do his "thing" in front of myself and children and say we have to accept it.
