Leading Democratic Contenders Approve Homosexual Fairy Tale for 7-Year-olds

The book read to the 2nd graders was “King and King”. Please note (and I see there is a lot of confusion about this), this incident followed another incident of a parent of a kindergarten student who protested when there was a class discussion about “families” and gay couples were discussed. The father of the kindergarten parent was arrested in the principal’s office when he demanded that his son be excluded from future discussions of this type. THAT is what provoked the court case, not the “King and King” episode.

Idiot fairies....Move on’ers?

[Leo Farnsworth]

Look, I’m an American. I’m all for diversity...

I just want to hear Hillary! Obama! the Breck Girl and the rest of the leftist twits in Congress say to their children the following:

“No, Chelsea (insert name of liberal offspring here), one man inserting his penis into another mans anus is quite normal. No way is that perversion. Animals do it all the time!...”

If they can all do that - say that - to their own, then let them promote homosexuality. But if they don’t...why not. It’s a simple litmus test. (They do not do it because they CANNOT defend it).

[HoosierHawk]

One of the most important duties of a parent, and perhaps the single most important one, is to instill in their children a code of moral values.

Well, yeah, that's a given.

When I sent my freshman daughter off to college, (she's coming home this weekend, YEAH!), I told her, 1) Don't do drugs, 2) Don't drink the booze, and 3) Don't become a liberal.

My larger point was, and maybe I didn't make it clear, that if he didn't feel that it was appropriate to impose his values on his children, how would he, as chief executive, administer the enforcement of federal law.

It seems to me to be a feckless statement from a fake and feckless candidate.

"Not one candidate was uncomfortable with young children learning about same-sex marriage in the second grade.

I don't think they give a rip how other peoples children are treated. I'll betcha their own would attend private schools where "fairy" tails like this were not read.

Edwards: "I don't want to impose my view. Nobody made me God."

That is such a pathetic answer from such a girly man. He can't impose his views on anybody, yet we are supposed to blithely accept that is okay for the homos to impose their view on us.

I think you are right. I was almost napping when I first heard it. I woke right up . I don't want him or anyone who will allow the gay agenda to invade the schools. I think if you want to be gay and you are an adult who understands the risks, aids, std's, & dying, thats one thing. To read these books to young children is another matter. Fairy tales , living happily ever after my arse. If you plan to promote it tell the truth. Tell the kids that they might die. I will be one of the jailed parents if they try to read this cr@p to my daughter.

ewwwwwww

[TigersEye]

Definitely disgusting. The government shouldn't be teaching anything about marriage to anyone. Nothing!

This is so Marxist it's just not funny.

[VOA]

“Just now on HGTV, decorating channel for you guys, had on ad ad for GLBT History MONTH!!!”

I hope they didn’t out any of their presenters/guests.
It’s always fun when visiting my “church lady” mother and HGTV is on.
Occassionally, I will say “that designer is a bit light in the loafers”
and she gently say “that might be a possibility”.

[gidget7]

Naaaaaa Suzy, they try to claim anyone as one of their own, especially when those someones can’t defend themselves.

I know what you mean though, those ads pop up where and when you least expect them, without warning. I believe they call it ramming? or jamming? something like that. Put it everywhere and we will eventually get used to it, is their thinking.

[Clintonfatigued]

Regardless of how one stands on social or educational issues, I can’t imagine a defense for this!

[TigersEye]

Edwards claims that he does not want his views to influence his children's views. "I want my children to be able to make that decision on behalf of themselves, ... because I don't want to impose my view. Nobody made me God."

That's a good thing. Maybe his kids will have a chance to become useful human beings. For people who actually have brains and values it's probably better to pass that on. ; )

[gidget7]

No he is derelict of duty to his kids, and would turn around and impose his beliefs on all of us ADULTS!

[pandoraou812]

Nobody made me God.

And nobody is going to make him one either. What a moronic thing to say...I dislike him even more now. I feel sorry for his children. Can you imagine him being your dad? ewww

[agrace]

"...Second grade might be a little tough, but even in second grade to be exposed to all those possibilities, because I don't want to impose my view. Nobody made me God."

No, just their FATHER, you fool.

[TigersEye]

He’s not a dad. He is basically admitting that he doesn’t consider himself fit to be a father. I think we should take him at his word on that.
