MORE HOMOSEXUAL POLITICIANS REVEAL NEW FACE OF DEMOCRATIC PARTY Laird, Leno Are First Openly Gay California State Assemblymen

Sacramento – Two homosexual men have become the first openly gay assemblymen in the California State Legislature. At a State Capitol ceremony on Monday, John Laird of Santa Cruz and Mark Leno of San Francisco were sworn in as the first male homosexual legislators in California history.

“The Democratic Party should rename itself the homosexual drag queen party, because that’s what it has become in recent years,” said Randy Thomasson, executive director of Campaign for California Families, a statewide nonprofit, nonpartisan family issues leadership organization. “Sadly, the radical gay activists are intent upon taking away the rights of average citizens. More homosexual activists as politicians mean more attacks on the sanctity of marriage, religious freedom, parental rights and the Boy Scouts.”

Increasing the self-proclaimed “Lavender Caucus” to five members, Laird and Leno join three previously-elected lesbian activist legislators: Jackie Goldberg of Los Angeles (Assembly), Christine Kehoe of San Diego (Assembly) and Sheila James Kuehl of Santa Monica (state Senate).

In recent years, the California Democratic Party (CDP) has become a loud advocate of homosexuality, bisexuality and transsexuality. Since 1999, Democrat state legislators have passed, and Governor Gray Davis has signed, more than 15 bills promoting the gay and transsexual agenda. Both the California Democratic Party and numerous California state and federal Democratic politicians opposed the Protection of Marriage Initiative (Proposition 22) on the March 2000 ballot. That same year, at the Democratic Party’s national convention in Los Angeles, many party members booed the Boy Scouts for being allowed to lead the Pledge of Allegiance.

In April 2001, the CDP passed a resolution officially supporting “civil unions” or Vermont-style homosexual marriage. In October 2001, Governor Gray Davis signed legislation awarding more than a dozen rights of marriage to homosexual “domestic partners.” During the recently-concluded 2002 election, Art Torres, the chairman of the California Democratic Party, tried to force the removal of a radio ad which educated listeners about the gay agenda targeting schoolchildren.

“The homosexual and transsexual activists have hijacked the California Democratic Party and programmed the minds of Democrat legislators to push and promote their radical agenda, even to the point of overturning the people’s vote on marriage," Thomasson said. “More homosexual legislators will mean more of their special interest agenda. This is bad news for the rights of parents and average citizens.”

We haven't seen anything yet.

I believe that marriage is a sacrament.

Conversely, the left belives in moral relativism -- the notion that any value is as valid as any other value. In 1972, the then-front runner for the Democrat nomination, Muskie, refused to support gay rights. Today, gays are a key Democrat constituency, and support for legalization of gay marriage is a mainstream Democrat plank. The Democrats insist they do not support pedophilia, bestiality, or necrophilia, but that lack of support is based not on principle, or moral or religious doctrine, but on the fact supporters have not yet organized to become important Democrat constituencies. Once they do, Democrats will demand toddler marriage, livestock marriage, yes, even trans-death marriage. They will proslytize these values to our children in the public schools at our expense and they will force heterosexual marriage between adults underground, based on separation of church and state.

My question is the Republican campaign slogan of 1946: Have you had enough? I've had enough.

[Darksheare]

You summed it all up.

"...should go a long way towards demolishing a lot of the myths and ignorance about homosexuality."

Such as? If one might ask.

""...should go a long way towards demolishing a lot of the myths and ignorance about homosexuality.""

"Such as? If one might ask."

One may.

1. That they target children.
2. That gay sex = AIDS/disease
3. That it is a choice, and not a genetic mandate.

[onedoug]

Hmm.

Not to argue, but would you take a look at #46? Particularly its latter section, MORAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL QUESTIONS, with regard to your #3.

Moreover, I think the author's point about the sexual revolution wrought by Judaism as anchoring Western civilization is quite compelling, whether one is a "believer", or not. And if that can be borne out, then it's difficult to see that what "deviates" from such underpinnings does not contribute to Western civilization's decline.

[Darksheare]

Yes, they DO target children.
Gay sex DOES promote the spread of aids and Hepatitus C as well as other diseases.
And YES, it IS a choice.
There is NO CREDIBLE proof that it is genetic. They've reached so far to 'prove' that one that they say even the length of your ring finger determines your sexual orientation.

Like I said, for one trying to preach tolerance and enlightenment, you're awfully intolerant and being mighty ignorant.

[Clemenza]

Really? I thought the 14th Amendment merely extended the rights provided by the constitution (free speech, right to bear arms, FREEDOM OF ASSEMBLY!) to the states. Of course, legislation and court decisions by leftist justices have "reinterpreted" the 14th Amendment, but such is life.

OK, we've decided that the lavender lobby deserves "special protection." As a vegetarian, I am SICK AND TIRED about how we are depicted in the media and by "right wing bigots" like that Ted Nugent fella. Where is MY civil rights act?

Oh yeah, I forgot, I DON'T GIVE A DAMN WHAT OTHERS THINK ABOUT MY LIFESTYLE CHOICE. This is in contrast to the gaystapo (mg39 included?), who seek to shove their lifestyle down others throats, even when said people have legitimate moral objections of conscience.

Again, may I suggest the ACT-UP or Democrats Underground websites?
