GAY-RIGHTS HONCHO $HOWS BIG CHILL FOR HILL (Hillary to hold gay-themed fund-raiser)
NY POST ^ | February 22, 2006 | FRANKIE EDOZIEN

Posted on 02/22/2006 3:08:50 AM PST by Liz

The head of the state's largest gay-rights organization is urging his members not to throw their financial support behind Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton because of her "disappointing" stand on marriage for gays and lesbians.

.....Empire State Pride Agenda, executive director Alan Van Capelle branded Clinton a "complete disappointment [who] does not deserve [a gay] fund-raiser." He's refusing to lend his name to sell tickets to the bash.

"This year, Eliot Spitzer, David Paterson, Alan Hevesi, Andrew Cuomo, Mark Green, Sean Maloney and others are running for statewide office and are in favor of marriage equality for gays and lesbians," he said. "When our struggle is over, they will be recorded as being on the right side of history and, as of now, Hillary Clinton will not be with them."

Despite his criticism, Van Capelle said he'll vote for Clinton. "I believe Hillary Clinton has served the people of New York well in the United States Senate and that she deserves re-election," he said. "My vote for Sen. Clinton will come despite her regrettable statements on the issue of marriage for same-sex couples."

Hmmm, this fairy sounds like a case of homosexual hypocracy.

Much ado about nothing.

Homosexuals know Hillary is "one of them." It is the topic of their cocktail parties (and probably their BDSM gatherings.)

They realize she must masquerade as a sheep in wolf's clothing in order to win the Presidency, and they will do their best to support this charade.

This little dust up is just a "reminder" to her of all the damage they could do to her if they really, really wanted to.

Snort. Of course you will. The so-called big chill is really to help Hillie, not hurt her. Like folks won't see through that. Nice try, though.

It was the gay community that funded the Clinton's original run at the White House. If she is losing their support, she's toast.

"Mince-meat"?

No, just mincing about, throwing hissy fits, stamping their little feet. Just another fairy tale.

Or just another I'm-a-moderate-the-left-is-attacking-me moment, carefully engineered and staged by and for the Hildabeast.

A gay-themed fund-raiser for Clinton is being planned for March 10, and her staffers have been asking well-to-do gays to host the event.

Video, video, please let there be video!

Hil's backing off from homoesexual marriage is another indication Christians are a huge factor in choosing not only Repub candidates but Dims, as well.

Opposition to homo marriage (among other Christian issues) was a big factor in GWB's win, especially among Black religionists who vigorously oppose homo marriage.

The MSM's running pics of homos getting hitched caused a huge backlash at the polls, and a rash of anti-marriage state laws.

Do not forget, " I will vote for her anyway". Hilliary is just positioning herself to have it both ways and she will revert back to her real self once she is elected. Do not for one minute forget her Wellesley ties.

But with the "success" of Bareback Mountin the homos really believe that the wind is at their back. They are believing their own propaganda, like the Arabs in 67 or Suzanne Somers. They will accept no less than a presidential candidate who publicly supports sodomite marriage. They're here and they're queer.

I was wondering the same thing, but of course she cant come out, she needs her "loving" husbands support, If she comes out she admits the marriage was a farce. Which we all know anyway.

Now we've heard from the Sin-For-Fun-And-Profit contingent, marketing their evil in order to make the United States more like Sodom and Gomorrha.

" Hilliary is just positioning herself to have it both ways and she will revert back to her real self once she is elected."

I believe that, and President Bush's latest actions back that up: you don't know what they're going to turn into once they're in office.

Two Homosexual Activists have been chosen to be the principals at both Newton MA High Schools. Check the Article8alliance web-site for this and the shakedown by the city of Worcester on a Christian event which Gay Activists, including the Mayor attempted to shut down.
