Could you kindly also count the many pieces of evidence that all Crhistians would NOT be happier than the dude in question if such a thing were to happen, please? I’m reasonably sure we’re more than three.
Well, at least he didn’t call it " The Wonderful Republican Culture"
My aunt used to be part of Mike Huckabee’s political team. I’d love to tweak her about this at the upcoming family holidays, but I love my family and it would cause too much stress on my mom, her sister. I love my mom more than I desire to say “Gotcha” My aunt is so Republican she honestly thinks Ronald Reagan was one of our great Presidents.
OK, I don’t understand this, what is wrong with Hiccups? He isn’t gay.
The character Gobber (the village blacksmith) in How to Train Your Dragon is supposedly gay - not that there’s anything explicit in the movies or TV show. There is one ambiguous comment in the second movie, and a statement by those involved in creating the movie that yes, the character is gay. Other than not being married (although he does reference a former wife, whether entirely in jest or actually having had a wife at one point I don’t know) he acts just like everyone else. Which is probably what makes him so terrifying to the gay-haters - he acts like everyone else, he blends in, and nobody seems to give a damn about what he’s doing behind closed doors.
I agree that the OP title is false and misleading, and I agree it would be smart to request it be changed. I also agree that the GOP tacitly supports fringe nutjobs for political gain–but killing gays is not in any sense part of any GOP platform. Not no way, not no how.
However, I’m pretty confident you already consider John_Stamos’_Left_Ear a hyper-partisan douche.
Thanks Broomstick, I must have missed that in the movies.
This Kevin guy is something else. Two more stories:
Kevin Swanson Warns Criticism Of His Anti-Gay Comments Is Part Of Attempt To Shut Down Christian Media
and
Kevin Swanson Defends Linking Gay Kiss To Colorado Wildfires
If a gay kiss can cause a wildfire, what can I get for a gay blowjob?
Both are from http://www.rightwingwatch.org/
That depends-Got references? ![]()
This is an extremely disingenuous analysis. Yes, these three guys are not doing particularly well in the race for this one particular position, compared to the others in the race. However, one is a U.S. senator, one is a former governor, and the other is a sitting governor. These are, on the whole, very successful Republican politicians.
“Vast minority?”
B. Serum, you deserve pitting for that alone.
That references - got Depends?
My personal favorite was when he claimed that birth control pills cause the womb to be “filled with dead babies”. Like, how metal is that? It sounds like some low-budget horror film.
And his name isn’t Hiccups.
It’s only palling around with terrorists when a Democrat does it.
Cruz’s “I don’t know what this gentleman has said and what he hasn’t said” takes the urinal cake. C’mon, Ted, he’s asking you about something that has already happened, and you didn’t hear anything about it? You were there! Nobody said anything, got you curious enough to check? Nobody stood before you, pale and shivering, wide-eyed saying “Christ Jesus, I can’t believe what I just heard.”
Ted doesn’t know anybody gay? No one even semi-close, a cousin, perhaps, a schoolmate? No one close enough, dear enough to call him up and say Ted, you gotta say something, Ted, this man wants to kill me! Hello? Ted? Hello?..
The man is assembled from some pretty shiny parts, but there’s at least one missing.
One of the Christian fundamentalist tropes is that gay people are disgusting because they’re obsessed with feces. For a straight dude, this guy seems to think a lot about cow shit.
I like when fundamentalists criticize media and declare everything propaganda for X.
Harry Potter is satanic.
SpongeBob is gay.
Smurfs is communism.
Frozen is lesbian - although I’m not sure why, since didn’t they both show interest in guys? Elsa is a witch, so it should be satanic.
How to Train Your Dragon - I haven’t searched, but I bet they think it promotes bestiality.
My Little Pony - all the above.
Doom was supposed to be vile satanic propaganda, even though the objective was to kill all the demons.
I was being hyperbolic, which is far from egregious behavior in The Pit last I checked.
If it bothers people who happen to be hyper-partisan douches, all the better.
When your national platform and a majority of your state platforms are anti-gay, don’t be shocked when people get hyperbolic about it. Especially when three of your brightest spend the weekend at a “Kill The Gays” summit (and that is not hyperbolic, since you don’t seem to know the difference).
I beg to differ. Ted Cruz will be President in Hell.
