First Presidential LBGT Forum Expected to Promote Homosexual Agenda

Democratic presidential candidates are confirmed to participate next month in the first-ever presidential forum on issues concerning the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community.

Hosted by MTV's homosexual cable network, Logo, and sponsored by the nation's largest homosexual activist organization, the Human Rights Campaign, the one-hour event on Aug. 9 will feature Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, who will engage in conversation on marriage, hate crimes, HIV/AIDS and other issues.

'“We’re honored to give the presidential candidates a historic opportunity to share their views directly with the LGBT audience,” said Brian Graden, president of Logo, in a released statement.

Conservatives warn that the forum is "clearly a setup" and the gay agenda will come across loud and clear.

The debate will focus solely on homosexuality in front of an audience of gay activists, noted Connie Mackey, senior vice president of Family Research Council Action.

"It's not good politics," she said, according to CitizenLink, a publication of Focus on the Family. "The only positive I see out of it is that if enough Americans actually watch the Democratic candidates answer some of these questions, they're going to understand something about them that they probably have not understood before.

"The questions will be posed in such a way that it looks mean if you're not for it," she added. "So, they'll pose those questions strategically."

According to conservative public policy group Concerned Women for America (CWA), all major presidential candidates have been invited to participate and as of Friday, all Republican presidential candidates have declined.

Clinton and Obama, the two leading Democratic presidential candidates, are the only confirmed candidates. Both have expressed support for the LGBT community and have pushed for equality.

CWA's policy director for Cultural Issues Matt Barber expressed concern Friday, arguing that the debate is designed to "advance the radical homosexual agenda and to promote social and governmental acceptance and celebration of the high-risk and destructive homosexual lifestyle."

"It's disgraceful that our nation's moral standards have now dipped so low that it's considered 'tolerant' to hold a debate organized entirely around the promotion of sexual immorality," Barber commented in a statement.

The forum will be held in Los Angeles at 6 p.m. local time before a studio audience and broadcast live without commercial interruption on Logo's cable television channel and at LOGOonline.com.

A minister I once knew and never realized he was gay, got anal cancer. I had hoped that might scare him but he’s still a minister and still gay. I can’t understand that church. People have gone but gays have started attending.

Unfortunately, the DISH Network doesn’t carry LOGO, so I will miss it live. What a shame. Boo-hoo and all of that.

here are a couple of the dem canidates getting ready for the gay debate

The Party Of Abnormal Americans. Seriously this is what we've come to: Democrats pandering for the pervert, pederast and cross-dresser vote. It makes me glad my beloved mother and father aren't around to witness this degenerate spirit of one of our major political parties. This is a mega-barf and I'm not tuning in.
One of the parties?
Have you not seen Rudy Giulliani cross dress?

[SIDENET]

That’s just wrong.

You mean the Breck girl isn’t going to be there? He’s not even bothering to send his wife?!

Why isn’t Rudee going to be there? We know he was a big supporter of their agenda in NYC.

Anyway, no need to watch. It’s going to be one sick panderfest where the Hildabeast and Osama pander to the homosexuals, validate their lifestyle, and promise much more funding for AIDS research.
