Mayor Pete and his 'husband': Time Magazine's first couple?

An early pioneer of conservative talk radio was the late Bob Grant (1929 - 2013) who broadcast out of New York City. Often when Grant was commenting on some outrage in the news, he'd say, "It's sick out there and getting sicker." If only he knew how his words would ring ever more true in the years to come. 

The case in point is the cover of the current Time magazine.  It is a photograph of "Mayor Pete" Buttigieg and his "husband" Chasten Buttigieg standing close together with the caption "First Family." (Permit me a minor digression here. If Chasten is the "husband" of this couple, why are both of them using Buttigieg's last name and not Chasten's which is Glezman? I guess I'm too old and deplorable to understand such nuances.)

This cover and its accompanying story is an in-your-face, full-blown endorsement of homosexual marriage and the effort to make it appear normal. Here we are seeing propaganda at its finest. It is an example of what the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan (D-NY) meant when he talked about "defining deviancy down." 

Moynihan based this observation of the work of sociologist Emile Durkheim who said there is a limit to bad behavior that a society can tolerate before it starts to lower its standards. Is this not what we have been seeing since the 1960s? One insult to the family, to fatherhood, to patriotism, and to normality itself ratchets traditional standards down. At that point, the system digests the changes, rests for a brief time, and then the left begins its next assault. The trajectory is always down, never up.   

I have been following the 'defining deviance down' process for more years than I can to remember.

This is beyond disgusting.

How about Sodom and Gomorrah?

And, as predicted by moi, once that squeezle made the accusations that Pete was a randy f*g and then revealed as a setup, gay marriage was further mainstreamed as normal and Pete was the essence of the loyal, monogamous married man. See, this was all orchestrated by Pete’s campaign.

Never mind the rectum tears and coprophagia*...they is legit!

Hey, Pete! According to the homosexual culture, what is the one, specific act that proves a commitment to your partner?

First, I’m from South Bend. (My apologies)

Mayor Pete has nothing to stand on as far as accomplishments. Every article written about him first points out he’s gay. It’s obvious that his promoters think that’s his biggest selling point.

If we could all just ignore it, he will go away. They’re just looking to get a reaction to it for the attention. If there’s no reaction, he will disappear.

Enough criticism of Mayor Buttplug!
Let’s stand behind him and give him a lot of, ah, er, support!

[richardtavor]

Begs a question, who changed their name, or they are brothers with the same parents?

[Inspectorette]

Notice how they roll up their sleeves.

LOL - I see what you did there...

[bgill]

Who is funding this garbage? Soros? No way should it still be in publication.

[Tell It Right]

Buttigieg's #1 campaign slogan: Vote for me because of my sex life. :)

I mean, really?

[polymuser]

Homosexuality is the sharp tip of Satan’s spear. Where it penetrates, great damage follows. Wake up, America!

[photodawg]

...it’s a wonder they don’t have them fudge packing on the cover...

Remember it’s progressivism. That will come later, and it will happen.....on facebook....and instagram.....and gay story time in our kindergarten classes. They will eventually show gay men having pleasure with each other in all public forums. And understand this will not be banned as hate, or offensive by any platform.

Perverts on parade! South Bend is a crappy, violent town. This homo “runs” it. What great Presidential material. The DIMs are desperate.

When these 2 kiss on live national TV during the Democrat Convention, it’s over.

[DownInFlames]

Stepford wives scene, except they’re Democrat.

Time Magazine's first couple

The rag mag needs to explain: They're the first couple of what? ... homosexuals? ... I don't think so.

[dfwgator]

Just remember who is primarily responsible for him being mayor and thus having a chance at the Presidency, the faculty and students of Notre Dame University.

[chuckee]

If Buttigieg was straight he would just be another crummy small town mayor with no one paying attention. Most Dems do not even know what his policy positions are other than the dude is gay and “married” to another dude. But then again policy is not in the wheelhouse of Dems. It is all about who is the biggest unicorn who can make it to the front cover page of the Tiger Beat mainstream media promoting their heartthrob of the month.

So who’s pitchin’, and who’s catchin’?
