Cory Booker presses Mike Pompeo: 'Do you think gay sex is a perversion?'
Washington Examiner ^ | April 12, 2018

Posted on 04/12/2018 11:41:52 AM PDT by deplorableindc

CIA Director Mike Pompeo was pressed for his views on homosexuality Thursday during his confirmation hearing to be secretary of state.

Pompeo, a former Kansas congressman, said he would treat State Department employees fairly regardless of their sexual orientation if he's confirmed, but did not directly answer questions from Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., about whether he views homosexuality as a perversion.

"When I was a politician, I had a very clear view on whether it was appropriate for two same-sex persons to marry. I stand by that position," Pompeo said.

I’m sorry if this has already been addressed, but post-17th Amendment ratification Senator Booker’s question is probably a violation of the Religious Test Clause imo.
"Article VI, Clause 3: The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States [emphasis added]."

Faulty arguments about homosexuality began with the 1973 decision by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) to delist homosexuality from its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM).

Removal followed a two year campaign Newsweek described as ongoing disruptive, chaotic attacks on psychiatrists and physiologists. Yet throughout these disruptive attacks, no academic papers were presented at conferences refuting any research previously done. Eventually attacks forced sufficient abstentions and apprehensive responses for a third of APA’s 17,000 plus membership to vote removal.

After this decision a new task force was established to ensure perpetual sanctity for the APA action. No research papers would again arise to confirm initial therapy success rates of 30% to 60 %, substantiating that 7 of 10 homosexuals could eventually walk away from the lifestyle forever. This task force would set peer review standards mandating pre-ordained theses, acceptable flexibility in design definitions, and acceptable human data points. Psychology and Psychiatry chose to abandon scientific rigor in exchange for popular societal and political acclaim.

IIRC, it is brazenly and plainly UNCONSTITUTIONAL to even question a person's religious beliefs in any way remotely tied to approval for a job.

That jerk-face needs to be pummeled in the media up one side and down the other for such UNCONSTITUTIONAL hypocrisy.

Nah, Corey, sticking your weener into a sewage pipe for kicks is perfectly normal, and all creatures on earth should do this in lieu of reproducing themselves.

<>"homosexuality...perversion"<>

Well, they made it legal, so 'no'.

They are trying to legalize pedophilia now.

Corey Booker presses Mike Pompeo

Mike Pompeo is thankful that Booker didn’t attempt to press against him.

“’Do you think gay sex is a perversion?’”

No, I don’t “think” it is, I “know” it is.

Thanks for the background. These analyses still don’t seem to get at the real root causes of why society changed and abandoned millennia-long norms of civilization.

The article “How the American Psychiatric Association Went Gay” could be presented in 2018 as “How the American Psychiatric Association Went Trans.” It sounds like a perfect replay of insanity.

Yep. Being known to be a homosexual should have real negative consequences.

It would have been better had homosexual acts never been legalized.

Isn't it?

Haven't you heard?

That depends on what the meaning of "is," is.

LOL. The oligarchy and the rabid liberal hidiot left have been overhauling the dictionary in perverse ways for decades.

Qx noticed early on that MicroSlop's Word dictionary had demoted, omitted certain Christian words. I don't recall specific examples but that strategy has seemed to continue and to increase. IIRC, approximately 5-20% of the Christian/Pentecostal vocabulary Qx wanted to check the spelling on, were no longer available in the dictionary--i.e. Word's inherent dictionary.

We certainly see that strategy overtly amplified in the MSM blathering about their favorite culturally disintegrating strategies and goals.

INFANTICIDE now = "choice."
PERVERSION now = "optional life-style."

RABID HOSTILITY TO MASCULINITY now = "empowering feminism."
RABID HOSTILITY AND PUNISHMENT TOWARD CHRISTIANITY now = "cultural diversity enhancement."

SUICIDAL GLORIFICATION OF GENOCIDAL ISLAM now = "cultural respect & diversity."
CRUCIAL, RATIONAL FREEDOM PROTECTION 2ND AMENDMENT ADVOCACY now = "insane orgasmic gun-loving."

PARAGON TYRANNICAL GLOBALIST GESTAPO STRATEGIES now = "sustainable development."
GENOCIDAL FORCED DEPOPULATION now = "planet saving sustainable development."

WORSHIP OF THE CREATION INSTEAD OF THE CREATOR now = "planet saving environmentalism."
WHOLESALE DELIBERATE DESTRUCTION OF FATHERS, FATHERING & THE FAMILY now = "empowering feminism."

DELIBERATE DESTRUCTION OF THE MIDDLE CLASS AND MULTIPLICATION OF SERFS & SLAVES now = "sustainable development."
DEPOPULATING EUGENICS, STERILIZATIONS BY VARIOUS MEANS (incl vaccinations) now = "sustainable development."

NAZI, GESTAPO TACTICS LABELING (of good = evil; evil = good etc.) now = "inclusiveness."
STONED, DRUGGED-OUT, DRUG NEUTERED, SOMATIZED CITIZENS now = "cool."
