To: Recovering Ex-hippie

Thanks for the support. I’m getting slaughtered here. LOL.

I still hope Paladino wins, in fact that’s WHY I think his remark is so off-base—becasue it will only help Cuomo in the end.

Except that he never said it. The statement that you object to was not in his speech.

There's a link in 183 and 158. And there's also this:

but his campaign manager, Michael R. Caputo, denied that the candidate is antigay, and noted that he employs an openly gay man on his campaign staff.

I get what your point is—and you’re right—this will not play well politically—but then again Cuomo is such a lying thug who knows how things will go.

What I struggle with is this: I do not want to persecute gays—ever—on this matter I say live and let live.

BUT I do resist what seems to be an all out campaign to create “parity” between hetero and homosexual lifestyles.

This is just a propaganda fantasy perpetuated by the liberal establishment —but the youth buys it, they experiment in ways they would never even dreamed of-—in fact they feel by experimenting, they are showing what ‘good people’ they are, so non-judgemental etc, and the outcome for many is a fog of cynicism, depression, confusion, “I don’t really know what/who I am”.

Youth are hammered every moment through media, pop culture to completely reshape their instinctive inclinations—lest they are uncool uptight, “bigots”. And our youth is our future of course.

Just great.

So to comfort a small minority, we illogically turn our entire values structure and definition of our natural identities on it’s head. it is utterly insane.

And truthfully it is overtime that we start re-calibrating some sanity back into this world of ours before we take a mass lemmings leap off the cliff.

How we reconcile common sense and moral values and NOT ‘depress” homosexuals is the tough part—in other words, because we don’t mindlessly cheer, “Hey! Your lifestyle is a completely valid option—JUST AS GOOD AS THE MAN/WOMAN CHOICE— for today’s young people thinking about the future!

Sorry, in this case the majority well being and systemic health of our natural way of life should win out.

Case closed.
