SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Pete Buttigieg, the 37-year-old mayor of South Bend, Indiana, officially announced his presidential bid Sunday afternoon, hoping to make history as the youngest-ever, and the first-ever openly gay, commander in chief.
Speaking to a standing-room-only crowd inside a downtown tech hub that had once been the home of a long-ago-shuttered Studebaker car factory, Buttigieg promised to bring to the country the kind of change and innovation he’d helped to instill in his native South Bend.
"My name is Pete Buttigieg. They call me Mayor Pete. I am a proud son of South Bend, Indiana. And I am running for President of the United States," he said, prompting a wave of adoring screams from the crowd. "I recognize the audacity of doing this as a Midwestern millennial mayor. More than a little bold — at age 37— to seek the highest office in the land."

And if he starts slinging “homophobic!” At all his detractors, I’m ok with mocking his hypocrisy. Fo sure.

Thank you. I agree. True Christianity, if we choose to practice it, does not involve spewing hatred or making fun of people.o

If he does fight christian or religious expression, if he does just push his agenda over acceptance and generic human rights, then I am against him. And it doesn’t mate whom he sleeps with. So I’m on your sides, politically. I don’t care about his personal choices unless he does wield them like a trump card. Can we still say trump card?

Mayor Butthead was the lead news story tonight on the NBC station in Chicago over the snow storm and Tiger Woods. Does not make any sense. Butthead has pushed Beto to the back page.

I was under the impression that you wished.
I’m fine with you sticking around, but shed the bleeding heart stance and the anti-conservative hatred at least.

How about disliking him for saying Trump and Pence are not Christian enough, from the man who ignores G-d’s word saying homosexuality is abomination?

Is he HIV positive, or is that an assumption?

Wow! Until I read this, I hadn’t noticed that MSM loves that he declares himself a Christian.

I said probably because 1 out of 5 homosexual men are infected, a pretty good chance. Of course, we will never know; we will never be ALLOWED to know. AIDS has its own civil rights to privacy, you know.

If my comment disgusts you more than the unapologetic push for HIV/AIDS on this nation’s children, you are probably on the wrong forum.
Buttlick is an advocate of this world view. I hope he dies from AIDS.

They were talking about Buttigieg on Fox & Friends, and his name sounds like Buddha-judge. So, he judges the enlightened? If so, he has no clue about awareness.

Then go. If you think a butt f-er should be C-I-C then you are an idiot. Bye.

Are the South Benders the most gullible of all the Hoosiers?
