Newt the Liar

Gingrich complains gays rights questions are ‘anti-Christian bigotry’

From the comments section of the article.
I could not have said it better:

"Should the Catholic Church be forced to close its adoption services in Massachusetts because it won’t accept gay couples"

What a goddamn liar. The state is saying they won't pay for them to discriminate - they didn't force the church out of the adoption business (and it is a business, make no mistake about it, otherwise the church wouldn't do it).

The media is at fault because they are too stupid or lazy or incompetent to stop Newt and call him out on this statement. Or maybe they are complicit, but a person with even the most basic rhetorical skills could shut down Newt in 2 seconds.
