Bush Appoints More Homosexual Activists

Bush Appoints More Homosexual Activists
By Stuart Shepard, correspondent

SUMMARY: President Bush has quietly appointed four homosexual activists to mid-level spots in his administration.

The homosexual political group, Log Cabin Republicans is applauding President Bush for appointing four of its members to posts in the administration.

"President Bush has just done a phenomenal job and his approval ratings in the gay and lesbian community are higher than any Republican president has ever enjoyed," said Kevin Ivers, director of public affairs for the Log Cabin Republicans. "I think that these appointments actually reflect the core values of the Republican Party going back to the beginning, and certainly the core values of this president that qualified people who merit positions will get them."

The four were named to mid-level spots in the State Department, the Federal Transit Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency.

Bob Knight, director of the Culture and Family Institute, is disappointed, but not surprised, at the appointments.

"We wouldn't be surprised that some homosexuals are among many hundreds of appointments made by the president," Knight said. "What makes these interesting is that they're homosexual activists working within the Republican Party to try to undermine the pro-family view toward homosexuality."

Former Republican presidential candidate and activist Gary Bauer was harsher in his criticism: "I think the administration is going in exactly the wrong direction and runs the risk of insulting and alienating its Evangelical and Catholic supporters."

Bauer, who heads American Values, said mid-level positions are where government work actually gets done.

"Personnel is policy," Bauer said. "When you place these sorts of appointees in government positions, it is absolutely predictable that their biases on homosexuality will affect the decisions that they make."

The Washington Blade, a homosexual newspaper published in Washington, D.C., reports that at least 15 more homosexual appointments are in the works.

Bush had previously named Wisconsin Log Cabin Republican leader Scott Evertz as director of the Office of National AIDS Policy -- making him the highest- ranking homosexual to serve in a Republican administration.

Do you think he's gay? He did have Trent Lott over to the ranch is that funny hat with the feather. If he is, he seems to try to cover it up pretty good with the rugged cowboy look and tough talk. Maybe he just appears to be real lovey dovey with Laura to deflect any talk about his real preference.

As time goes on, this statement from Buchanan keeps entering my thoughts. "The differences between the two beltway parties are inconsequential".

I would hardly consider the Log Cabin Republicans to be a radical or even an activist group. Perhaps they consider behavior modification to be the best way to cure AIDs. I'd rather we deal with the responsible conservative homosexual groups now, rather than have to deal with the radical hate-mongering homosexuals later.

"Nor shall you bring an abomination into your house, lest you be destroyed like it. You shall utterly detest it and utterly abhor it, for it is an accursed thing."Deuteronomy 7:26

Don't bring up the 'throwing the first stone' canard. That's out of context and won't apply here.

No names.

Bush said that he would appoint the best people for the jobs.

The best people don't gravitate toward government jobs, as we all know.

I don't know if you're joking or belittling, but this is an issue that matters to a lot of people. We don't need Bush appointing a bunch of gay activists. Sex should not be a topic, period. The fact that he is appointing gay activists very much makes it an issue. Keep their sex lives to themselves.

Just because LCR's are fiscally conservative doesn't mean they are not gay activists. They are. The Catholic Church made excuses for hiring gay priests and look where they are today. I think it does matter. I can live with gays being hired in government, obviously, but not gay activists who want gay marriage, adoption, promotion in the schools, boy scouts, etc...

There was a memo sent out within the LCR some years back warning them not to show up in diapers or other "fun" attire at gay pride parades and other functions.

Perhaps I should excerpt more than discussion notes from the tape I was listening to Friday: Dr. E. Michael Jones's talk on "The Homosexual as the State's Ideal Citizen".

Thanks for the links.
