When it comes to issues of homosexuality, however, he suddenly turns far left.
On Monday, he was vehemently attacking a court case that allowed the blocking of adoption of children by homosexual "couples." He insisted children raised by homosexuals was a wonderful thing, and raised his voice at the callers that disagreed. When one man called to say it homosexuality was against God's law, Smerconish blew a gasket.
He challenged the man saying "No! We can't even agree on which god says this!" The man shot back: "Yes we can, that God is Jesus Christ." Smerconish said he worshiped the same god, but the caller didn't know what he was talking about.
To have the most dominant radio personality in the morning Philly market so stridently against the Christians in this case is hurting their case terribly. Most people are not getting the full story, and Smerconish himself never even watched the video of their arrest.
Smerconish is hardly a conservative. He has supported Arlen Spector all his adult life. He is more of a self-promoter and political opportunist than anything.
Wow! It sounds like the guy's true colors are showing. Maybe Smerconish is a Log Cabin Republican?
I agree that he definitely can't be helping their situation. The story has to get coverage IMO if these Christians are going to get any help.
I just thought a few minutes ago about contacting the local Christian radio stations and asking them to run the story, that ought to help some.
This station rocks and has affiliates nationwide http://www.air1.com/
I'm going to start with them.
There are a couple other local stations that I can call tomorrow.
