Xtian Conservs. are SHOCKED that there are ANY Gay R.congressmen

[Philosoraptor]

I've heard them calling in to cpan and I've been reading their responses on the web, they hate homosexuals with a passion, consider them evil, immoral, deviant, and they never in their wildest nightmares ever thought that there even WAS such a thing as a gay republican congressman. They are currently experiencing the same thing the flat earthers must have felt when they saw the photos from orbit.

Many of them say we should remove all homosexuals from our government because they infect the whole society. Not making that up, they really say shit like that.

Boy oh boy are they in for a shock. I suggest they invest heavily in pharmaceuticals.

1. And the log cabin republicans don't get it.

They are serving masters who will sacrifice them to try to remain in power.

8. A gay who supports the GOP is like a chicken that supports Col. Sanders.

[Rocknrule]

20. More like a Jew that supports Hitler

[Tyo]

9. I hate to psychoanalyze…

But if you are a Log Cabin Republican I think you have some serious issues that you need to work through and the sooner the better both for your own well-being and for the well-being of your gay brothers and sisters.

[BoneDaddy]

13. Log Cabin Repubs are like

"Jews for Hitler"

[TheBaldyMan]

32. I think it comes down to money with the LCRs

if you are rich and selfish enough, you'd have to be crazy to vote anything but republicans.

[Not Me]

2. That's the meme that they have been given for the past 25 years

It's been drilled into their head from their pastors and their pols.
Now it's coming home to roost.

4. why should they be surprised? their own ranks are full of closeted gays.

[Jawja]

16. Exactly.

Why else would they be so passionate in their fear of Gays?

[Hugin]

5. Karmic Retribution is a bitch...

I read that somewhere.

[warrens]

6. While proudly doing their pre-teen daughters

And letting Uncle Clem take the boys for a day of skinny-dipping. Those inbred curs shouldn't be let near a polling booth.

[slackmaster]

7. You mean they are ignorant about human sexuality?

What a surprise?

:boring:

[Ediacara]

10. well, I must say I am a little surprised

but then.. the log cabin republicans never fail to confuse me...

[Vexatious Ape]

11. These morons will be on the war path.

They'll have Dobson, Farwell and the rest of the idiots, lobbying Washington to carpet-bomb San Francisco.

[The Magistrate]

12. This, Sir, Is Why This Scandal Is Of Such Importance, And Has Such Heft

These people, in their simple way, have always imagined Republicans, their champions against the "deviants", contain not a single homosexual in their ranks. They cannot themselves imagine crusaders against deviancy would tolerate any in their ranks, or that any homosexuals would ally themselves with a campaign of hatred against their owen kind. Their faces are now being rubbed, till raw and bloody, i the fact that there aree a number of homosexual Republican politicians, and they find it a tremendously dismaying experience. A number of them are quite likely to throw up thier hands and stay home on election day....

[shadowknows69]

19. They managed to conveniently miss

that a gay prostitute was a republican plant in the WH press corp and more than likely had some extracurricular activities with his many visits to the WH. Nope no gays in the republican party. Can I be plugged back into the Matrix. Ignorance must be so very blissful.

[Philosoraptor]

23. free lobotomys all around!

[Avalux]

14. The epitomy of hypocrisy - Republicans.

Republicans have, for years, worked hard to get the votes of the Christian Conservatives, knowing that voting block is very valuable. So they've pandered to them, named themselves the "party of family values" and made promises to them about their issues like abortion and the marriage amendment in order to get their votes. Trouble with that is - they aren't sincere and don't practice what they preach.

Did you ever buy something based on really good advertising only to get it home and find out the advertisement was a lie? Kinda makes you angry, doesn't it?

[CJCRANE]

15. The Republicans are oxymorons -

they are the opposite of what they portray themselves as, in every way.

Remember the Dubai Ports scandal? Same thing, you can't be tough on terror and at the same time give the ports away to a foreign govt.

[damntexdem]

17. They should be shocked that there are pedophile congresspeople; ...

and especially that the GOP leadership enables them.

[Jack Rabbit]

18. "(T)he same thing the flat earthers must have felt"

Well, somewhere between that and what the local grand dragon must have felt when his county elected a Black sheriff.

[Philosoraptor]

21. think if we had a black lesbian republican president, oy the wailing.

[hsher]

22. A mere hiccup on the path to the Reich

I know for a fact the Republican Nazi Party is going to herd the faithful back into the barn somehow after this, but darned if I can see at this moment how they're going to accomplish it. What gives me dark giggles about all of this is how stupid the GOP truly views the Christian voter base as, which becomes obvious when you see the bored, "sigh"-ing way GOPers toss out regular bones to them, and how transparently lowest-common-denominator and dull-witted those "bones" often are. It's like they're not even trying. They see Christians as even stupider than we see them. It's amusing, in a really dark way, how gullible evangelist Christians are, and how easily controlled they are by any force that wants to use them.

But I guess you have to be gullible to believe a guy returned from the dead, and that because he did this, if you recite his name like a magic shibboleth, you get to go to a pink, lovely place full of clouds when you die and no blacks, gays or Jews will be there.

America's Taliban = fundamentalist Christians
America's Islam = fundamentalist Christianity
America's imams = the religious right and Moral Majority
America's Koran = the fundamentalist Bible
Suicide bombings = "God hates fags", abortion clinic bombings
Declaring a fatwa = right-wing's media smear machine

So where do I get to sign up to fight the real war on terror? :D
Point out the recruiting office! I'm there in a heartbeat.
Let's fight The Real War on Terror

[mondo joe]

24. This exposes the divide between the fundies and the neocons.

The fundies do indeed hate gays.

The neocons couldn't care less - just one more emotion to exploit - so they keep gays on staff.

What happens when the fundy foot soldiers realize how different they are from their elite "leaders"?

[ecstatic]

25. is it ok to exploit their irrational fears / phobias? YES!

If we were to point by point show them that Republicans are not "protecting" them from their irrational fear of illegal immigrants, gays, premarital sex, minorities, etc., the Republican party (as we know it) would be destroyed. It wouldn't be jumping on the hate train, it would be more or less exposing Republican hypocrisy so that the people who vote based on hate will just stay their asses home and let the people who actually want to make America a better place vote.

26. Howard Fineman says the born again bushies are PISSED OFF

[ComerPerro]

27. They will find a way to reconcile it. They always do

They will just tell themselves that he is not a true Christian, and was probably an undercover Democrat.

Hell, Faux already did that part for them

[Swamp Rat]

28. LOL! The Flat Earth Society still lives!

:rofl: Boy, if they only knew how many gay/bi republican congresscritters and bureaucrats there be.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

29. They never heard of Jim Kolbe? n/t

[RamboLiberal]

30. Please, please, please - someone out Mehlman

They will be shocked I tell you! Shocked!

[VeggieTart]

31. Actually, it's the very religious nonchristians who are infecting society

I mean, if you think about it, Christianity, especially the born-again evangelical type, is a lifestyle choice.

[Philosoraptor]

33. I'll be all but three of em' are gay
