Gay Democrats rebuke Palin for saying homosexuality is a "choice"

A national group of homosexual Democrats condemned Sarah Palin on Wednesday for arguing that homosexuality is a "choice" and claimed Senator John McCain chose a "poor" running mate.

"For Governor Palin to suggest that individuals randomly choose their sexual orientation based on nothing but a whim is wrong and it repeats the talking points of the anti-gay special interests which continue to control the McCain/Palin campaign and the Republican Party, " said John Hoadley, executive Director of National Stonewall Democrats on a statement.

Palin and CBS' News anchor Katie Couric talked about homosexuality at the last of a series of interviews aired Tuesday. Palin said she wasn't going to judge Americans and the "decisions" that they made in their "adult personal relationships."

If she rushes out to the mic's to "correct" her statement, I will give up all hope for 2008.

Sounds more like jealousy over Palin’s superior sense of fashion and style ... ;)

They can throw a mardy all they want - it’s a choice.

These are the same people who are evolutionists. How do they explain their existence if it’s genetic and they are incapable of reproducing?

Didn't anyone notice this????

Palin said she wasn't going to judge Americans and the "decisions" that they made in their "adult personal relationships."

The boyz and girlz need to relax a bit I think.

IF it is genetic, then as soon as a test can be developed for it, “possibly gay babies” will be aborted at high levels.

If there’s “nothing wrong” with being gay then why is it a negative to call it a choice? To argue that “I can’t help it I was born this way” implies an acceptance of a negative connotation to being gay.

And if it’s not a choice, why are there “Gay Pride” parades?

What’s to be proud of if you didn’t have anything to do with it?

Be like me having a “Blue Eyed Pride Parade”...

These people are nuts!

It is clear from what Gov. Palin said in the interview that she has no problem whatsoever with a person's choice to be homosexual.

She even cites that one of her best friends is gay. If Sarah thought that it was wrong to be gay, she never would have a best friend that was a homosexual.

"I have one of my absolute best friends for the last 30 years who happens to be gay and I love her dearly," Palin said. "And she is not my gay friend, she is one of my best friends who happens to have made a choice that isn't a choice that I have made."

Only a liberal can believe that gender is a social construct, but sexual orientation is a biological imperative.

Ha!

This is not what Governor Palin said. It's on videotape, for cryin' out loud!

Deciding what to do with your genitals seems like a choice to me....

They know it's wrong, foul, disgusting, deranged, perverted, unnatural, immoral, and evil.

They do it anyway.

Homosexuality is not a casual choice (like choosing your lunch off a restaurant menu), but it does lie within the realm of the will. Sometimes the slide into homosexuality is not a deliberative thing (Romans 1 depicts God as giving sinful people over to it as part of the self-destroying corruption), but it is something that with prayer and will can be reversed and defeated. If they would stop cultivating their sodomy the way a garden cultivates a garden they would realize it. I think they do know it deep down, which is why they are so upset.

I do not think that would be the case since the only people that have abortions are liberals and liberals support homosexuality.
