LANSING, Mich. (AP) — A Michigan member of the Republican National Committee said Thursday he will not resign after posting an article critical of gay people on his Facebook page, despite calls from members of his own party that he step down.

Dave Agema, who served as a state representative from 2007 until December posted an excerpt from an article titled "Everyone Should Know These Statistics On Homosexuals" on his Facebook page Wednesday. A group of 21 Michigan Republicans has called it "deplorable."

Turns out, the Judge probably died around 1960, so he may have been describing his experience.

I know Dr. Joseph’s list has been around since the ealy ‘90s, so none of it should be relied on for current facts.

Well he’s a solid conservative who took the RNC seat away from a progressive “republican”.

I have a feeling there’s a lot more to it than a facebook posting.

If he angered CAIR, that’s good enough for me.

He should say “What’s the real reason you’re all for gay rights? Do you plan on needing them in the future?”

Hm. The piece titled "Homosexual Rights Are Concern for Some" is cited here:

http://www.traditioninaction.org/HotTopics/a02rStatistcs.html

...and was covered in this FR thread in 2005:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1501855/posts?page=1

Some of those statistics are laughable, which means that none of them can be trusted. Each claim must be individually checked. "50% of suicides can be attributed to homosexuals." "Homosexuals account for half the murders in large cities." "95% of homosexuals are alien invaders from the planet Qxthhhrg." OK, I added the last, but if you believe the first two, you'll believe anything.

If I was pro-gay marriage, that is exactly the sort of document that I would want to attribute to the opposition.

I call it deplorable that those 21 RINOs have any influence in the Michigan GOP.

Wanna have fun? Ask your low-info friends what percentage of the population is gay. You will be amazed. The reason is that while only 2-3% of Americans are gay, almost 50% of the people on TV shows are.

“I think the entire “gay” issue could be the wedge we need to set conservatives apart from the Republican herd.”

Republicans would be fools to give up this issue. For conservatives this issue is a winner. I don’t care what the perverted main street media says, most Americans see homos as sexual deviants and are disgusted by their sick behavior.

I think the entire RNC should step down for supporting the governor who saturated Massachusetts in sodomy for the highest office in the land.

Homosexuality and Mental Health Problems

One important and carefully conducted study found suicide attempts among homosexuals were six times greater than the average (Remafedi et al. 1998).

“Gay marriage”

That term irritates me to no end. There are no laws on any state books for “gay” marriage. It is “same sex marriage”. This opens up all kinds of scam opportunity for monetary gain on fraudulent terms.

http://beverlyeakman.com/index.php/book-reviews/19-book-review-cloning-of-the-american-mind-eradicating-morality-through-education

Political Correctness: The Cloning of the American Mind is a short but very precise book published back in 1992 by David Thibodaux, Ph.D., English professor, University of South-western Louisiana. Dr. Thibodaux hit it right on the mark. In a relatively few pages (212), he succinctly chronicled the foundations of the disease called ‘political correctness,’ how it will destroy America’s moral foundation, educational excellence in this country and how it can be corrected.
One of the most obvious issues for cloning the American mind is promoting sodomy and other deviant sexual behavior. The American people have been under a barrage of the most sophisticated propaganda and brainwashing techniques ever seen outside Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. One should remember that promoting homosexuality as ‘normal, natural and healthy’ is listed in the top goals of the Communist Party. The underlying agenda is the destruction of a real family (a mother and father) and marriage between one man and one woman. Communism can only exist in a Godless society and that’s why this big push to destroy Christianity in this country and make the word of God something to deride and manipulate for the latest ‘tolerance’ issue. Cloning the American mind to reject all social values that have held this republic true since the Pilgrims landed is the number one goal of political correctness.

Dennis Lennox is a corrupt kid who thinks he is important. He almost went to jail and resigned as drain commishioner before getting recalled.

That’s the way.Just tell, the truth. Now we know what Rove and his merry band did not spend a nickle doing ads about social issues. They would rather loose the election than continue to be allied with us bigots.

Don’;t assume that because it is shocking that it can’t be true. The violent criminal element in the United State is not much larger than the number of homosexuals. The guerilla forces in Afghanistan are relatively a small number.
