Tea Party sinks to new low with attacks on gay pride attendees (Broward County, FL)
sun-sentinel.com ^ | June 25, 2014 | Michael Mayo

When I heard some local Tea Party zealots had worked themselves into a frothy lather over a Republican political misstep, I naively assumed it was over the revelation that Gov. Rick Scott had been spotted at a Fort Lauderdale Starbucks sipping a chai tea with soy milk, cinnamon and Truvia.

I mean, a conservative can lose his Fox News Karl Rove Card for that. Next thing you know, the guv will be slapping a Sierra Club bumper sticker on a new Prius and swapping NPR for Rush on his auto-tune.

Of course, branding someone a liberal because of a beverage choice is ridiculous. A joke.

Some of the Tea Party's recent repugnant homophobic behavior is no joke.

These self-proclaimed watchdogs of true conservatism criticized two local Republicans for appearing at the annual Stonewall Anniversary/Gay Pride parade in Wilton Manors.

Maybe we should call it the Chai Party. ;) Chai and tea are the same word. So when you say Chai Tea, you are really saying tea tea. Sorry pet peeve! Just like everyone was always saying Salsa! God, everyone one had to say it. It's like being surrounded by parrots day and night. Grr......

That just proves the theory and the theory is nearly a consensus now.

Articles that explain how modern liberals suffer from a mental disorder.

Liberals keep pushing the line: “repugnant homophobic behavior”.

Put a stigma on something. I don’t think homophobic behavior is repugnant.

You want to know whats repugnant? Two grow men playing in each others feces. Thats repugnant.

What could be more traditional than two people wanting to marry and start a family

Dude - you need to take Sex Ed 101 again.

"Start a family"? Does Michael Mayo know something that we don't know?

Has there been some sort of evolutionary breakthrough that queers are keeping secret?

Have Homos discovered a secret way for a male to impregnate another male through the anus?

How is the baby delivered?

And how do lesbians "Start a family"?

Have they evolved to the point they can create their own spermatozoa biologically?

Or do they manufacture it in their garage workshops and deliver it with some sort of mechanical apparatus?

” At one time, the Sentinel would sell over 400,000 copies of its Sunday edition. Now they sell on average of about 240,000 papers which has meant a decline not only in revenue but staff. The Sentinel used to employ around 350 newsroom employees and now they are down to 160.”
“Hold the Mayo”, I have no doubt contributed to the decline in readership.
Circulation down, populations up: Broward County populations has increased 13% since 2000.
Incidentally, ..., “As of 2005, Broward County led the nation’s metropolitan areas in new AIDS diagnoses....”wikipedia

Liberals have the most warped thinking. They aren’t normal.

Funny you should mention Guatemala.

Not five minutes ago, I heard a story on a Maine radio station about an illegal alien from Guatemala living in Brunswick, Maine.

The illegal stole the identity of a man from Texas, and applied for, and received, free health care in Maine, welfare, and other benefits.

The illegal was caught, and was sentenced to 16 months in prison.

Why do the peoples rage and imagine a vain thing... I’’ll tell you why, God escapes their imagination, and in place of God they build their own preferred reality, which is no reality at all, but rather make believe. The world suffers the results of living in false realities, real realities bowl them over. Real realities being God’s nature and design.

Psalms 9:17 says in part that the Nation that forgets God, shall be turned into hell. WHAT? Ya, God has designed the world in which we live, and when we go against His design, we suffer. To accept homosexuality as natural is to go against God’s nature and design, and thus puts you on a path of war against God. Most conservatives understand this and do not wish our once great nation to be at war with God... I’ll go with God, come hell or high water.

“repugnant homophobic behavior”

Like those other social ills such as :

repugnant charitable donations

repugnant parental concern

repugnant marital fidelity

and repugnant religious freedom.

In Albany, NY the Media does not use the word “illegal” in reference to “illegals”.

On the other hand, the cells that make up the lining of the vaginal walls are tough & nodular, well designed to withstand the rigors of intercourse & childbirth.

In other words, it’s not nice to fool Mother Nature.

And behold, God is not mocked.

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them;
they parade their sin like Sodom;
they do not hide it.
Woe to them!
They have brought disaster upon themselves.

NORMAL is the new "N" word!

So in this lame “writer’s” line of “thinking,” the very idea of actually opposing someone’s position on homosexuality constitutes “attacking.”

I hear Yemen doesn’t have any :)

If you stay out of the big cities here in Texas you won’t see any as long as you keep the tv off or don’t patronize an art festival.

Well I commented on the article. Now watch the he/she’s come after me.

Djones5427 Rank 3023@mmayo@tribune.com
Where are the links to support your article? Where are the facts to support the article? In this world of misinformation we look to established news outlets for factual information that can be verified. Not even a link to your colleagues report?
When you search for that article and read it you find that you simply plagiarized his article. In his article he says “The flier was circulated among some people at Monday night’s monthly meeting of the Broward Republican Party’s committeemen and committeewomen, who make up the group that runs the local party.”
How can any concerned readers find fact in your article when it is so full of hate and does not provide PROOF? How is the Tea Party involved in this? Remember Who, What, When ,Where and Why?
And don’t even try to place judgment upon me for wanting to see a news article that actually reports on the factual events that occurred. Show me da beef!

The title says “Tea Party sinks to new low with attacks on gay pride attendees”

How about the author write: “Gays sink to new low by openly displaying fellatio and glorifying anal sodomy in public in front of children, while liberal bloggers attack decent people”

That should be the headline.
