Carl Paladino says it’s not okay to be gay.
"There is nothing to be proud of in being a dysfunctional homosexual," the Republican gubernatorial candidate told a small Hasidic group at K’hal Adas Kasho synagogue in Williamsburg today.
"That's not how god created us, and that's not the example that we should be showing our children."
Paladino, who has made his opposition to the gay marriage and "the homosexual agenda" clear, went much further yesterday, to say children "would be much better off and much more successful getting married and raising a family" than being gay."
"And I don't want them to be brainwashed into thinking that homosexuality is an equally valid and successful option," he said. "It isn't."
The speech came just days after the suicide of a gay Rutgers student and an anti-gay gang attack in the Bronx.
His Democratic opponent, Andrew Cuomo, blasted the remarks as "stunning homophobia and a glaring disregard for basic equality."
A campaign spokesman said "These comments along with other views he has espoused make it clear that he is way out of the mainstream a

I agree with you...but you will get flamed...Because it is also NOT OK to disagree with Paldino’s behaviors...not onfreeper...no matter how ridiculous or “12 yr old boy” like his acting out becomes.
there are plenty of conservative men who are politicians who are in control, yet are outspoken and principled!
Paldino just is embarassing!
This is politically unobjective jibberish. Are we here to talk about what is really happening, or would you rather just sit in an echo chamber and chat about what you wish was going on? God is also in Europe, but it didn't stop them from becoming a massive, leftist, social welfare cesspool.
That is why their thinking is so twisted. It is what the KGB calls cognitive dissonance. Kids can not think logically== period== with 12 years of forced cr*p taught as “knowledge”.
They think they are tolerant, yet they are intolerant of Christianity and logic, reasoning and science....everything this country was founded on. Following article:
Militant Homosexual KGB “Sleeper” Agents Described Over 25 Years Ago
By itooktheredpill
All of a sudden we see a homosexual… 15 years ago he did his dirty job and nobody cared. Now he makes it a political issue. He demands recognition, respect, human right, and he rallies a large group of people and there are violent clashes between him and police, his group and ordinary people. No matter what. It’s black against white, yellow against green. Doesn’t matter where this division line goes. As long as these groups come into antagonistic clashes, sometimes militantly, sometimes with firearms, that is the destabilization process. The sleepers, many of whom are simply KGB agents, become leaders of the process of destabilization.
-Yuri Bezmenov, 1983
My brother is homosexual. Ever been in a “gay” bar? I used to bar hop with him. He bartended in one of them. I watched these guys turn the “swish” (their term, not mine) on and off. Unless they were prancing in a bar while cruising, you wouldn’t have guessed they were homosexual. I listened to their stories of abuse and emotional trauma that “made them gay”. Their stories were all pretty much the same and mirrored my brother’s.
I like that about him too.
Your post is reasonable, articulate and eloquent.
There are many posters here who use crude terms for homosexuality and vitriolic comments and then justify this type of “discussion” by saying in true 12 yr old style “Well, that behavior is ugly so my using crude words over and over only is being honest!”
The really rageful comments are usually by people who have a problem with confidence or security in their own sexuality...they are so threatened they can’t distinguish what is legal behavior and what isn’t and instead of putting forth their personal religious views, they just get ugly.
If I remember correctly, you’re not in NY, thank God.
I asked but they aren’t answering questions, too busy ranting. Pro-homosexual rants get posters banned.
No, I am not in NY...but I am a conservative who is concerned about ANY conservative politician.
you go ahead and vote for Palidino..If I was in NY I would hold my nose, vote for him and hope he doesn’t act so out of control when he is in office. If he behaves as a true conservative when he is in office, great.
I have seen him interviewed by Fox who gave him plenty of time to explain his behaviors, I was not impressed.
“Does the AP think we should find these comments controversial?”
Anybody who didn’t know the AP is liberal should know it now.
The AP is trying to hurt Paladino, but it backfired - the majority of us will like him MORE.
I chose to discuss and debate politics within the prism of reality - not wishful thinking. I am in interested in winning elections and the art of the possible, not ignoring what is really going on, where public opinion is, and how voters are likely to respond to candidates and their positions.
What are you, a member of GOProud or something?
I'd never heard of it till now. Personally, I consider homosexuality a destructive lifestyle, but I am pretty much a libertarian on the issue and don't really care what they do - so long as they don't try to force their agenda on the rest of us. If the gays would just shut up and keep their activities to themselves, I wouldn't give them a second thought - and I'd be thrilled to see them vote for conservatives.
I’m sorry that I was unkind to you. Truly I am.
Ah it’s ok. Toots. ;-)
Thanks, DJ. I’m going to read that thread and look up the Newsday article tomorrow.
Listen , who died and made you “FreeperGod”?
You did NOT respond to the posts with ‘questions”...
and I don’t appreciate your veiled THREAT!!
“Pro-homosexual rants get posters banned.”
There have been NO Pro-Homosexual rants...just people trying to discuss Palidino’s Political and Media behaviors..which at the very best are often so out of control emotionally and other times not very politically savy AND honest.
YOU just can’t argue your points...so you throw this crap around and call people Pro-Gay or whatever!
I think it is her brother that is gay.
She tells everyone here who isn’t traumatized by gays (I have no business/personal issue with the lifestyle, never have never will)
that Jim Robinson will ban them.
I have been hit by that threat.
We all have our special interests is the way I see, mine is advocating pro life.
The delusion of some is when they become self important in promoting their interests which is very ineffective, IMO.

Let me know if you find it.
So being a gay person who is also downs syndrome is not kosher? /sarc
This guy is EXACTLY what a rough state like NY needs.
