Where’s The Outrage?
Dems Running Anti-Gay Campaign

by

Between Howard Dean promoting age discrimination against John McCain and Barack Obama’s trashing of religion, it is quite clear the Democrat Party will be declaring war on all sectors of traditional America in their campaign this year.

But going unnoticed is how the Democrats & Obama have swiftly thrown the gays under the bus already. Obama’s “Other Pastor” is stridently anti-gay. The Illinois Senator is snubbing local gay media across the nation. And where’s the outrage with this ad, from the DNC itself, with the rampant gay stereotypes?

One can only imagine the howls from the Hypocrite Rights Campaign if this were a Republican-produced ad! Shouldn’t the ‘Liberal Outers’ go after the producer of this ad as much as they did Republican gays working in Congress?

  1. This is a weird one. The Democrats are trying to suggest a gay relationship between Bush and McCain. Not seriously, of course, but in the manner of a schoolyard taunt.

    Meanwhile, we have gay activists who claim that any use of gay-related schoolyard taunts, like “You’re gay” or “That’s so gay”, is anti-gay. I don’t absolutely buy that logic, but they do. So yeah, I guess this new ad comes down to the Democrats being anti-gay. (By their own standards / logic.)

  2. I think that this political advertisement takes a juvenile and unsophisticated approach to criticizing John McCain, but it’s hardly offensive to me.

    However, when students use the word “gay” as a synonym for “stupid,” I do indeed find that insulting.

  7. Vince: I think it’s an issue of hypocrisy. You aren’t insulted by “x is so gay”. But Democrats and Gay Left activists tell us we should take it is an insult. Therefore, when they use it, they mean it is an insult.

    Like you, I’m still not actually insulted – because of the sheer unimportance of the DNC / Gay Left viewpoint in my life.

  8. Yes, the only way the Dems can appeal to the American voter, after going after whitey and big ol’ evil America, is to air weird ads with soft porn muzak belittling non-existent love affairs between two men.

  9. Students call their classmates “gay” to disparage them. The verbal exchanges in which the word is used have nothing to do with sexual orientation. Number one, students should not speak disrespectfully to each other when in the classroom. Number two, “gay” should not become a substitute for “stupid.” This is neither a Democratic nor a Republican issue; I am talking about an adult (the teacher) correcting children (the students) when they use inappropriate language.

  12. Re: Obama’s gaffe (referenced in the post). This is a gaffe in the classic sense, where a politician accidentally reveals how he really feels; in this case revealing the contempt and condescension he feels toward working class voters. But the thing is, I don’t think George Bush or John McCain’s attitudes toward the lower middle class are much, if at all, different. They just have learned to be less obvious about how they feel.

  13. This is OT but I couldn’t resist.

    I was reading book reviews on Amazon.com for the book “The War of the World: Twentieth-Century Conflict and the Descent of the West”.

    I find this in one of the reveiws. Are these people out of their mind delusional or what?

    “The anit-semetism of the Nazis is dealt with especially interestingly in this work. Ferguson does not go out of his way to condemn it really. In fact, he seems to try to excuse it, like conservatives in the US try to excuse slavery today.”

  14. You guys should see what the Leftists are doing up in Canada via the “Human Rights Commission”.. tribunals that are being used to persecute those in Canada who basically utter anything in public that goes against Leftist sensibilities.

    Almost all the entries on Mark Steyn’s informal blog are frightening.

    http://www.steynonline.com/content/blogsection/14/128/

    Remember our Democrats only aspire to be what the Left in Canada and Europe are. Whatever the Left is doing overseas, that’s the future trend for the Democrats.

    If you believe in your freedom of thought and speech then it’s important to be aware of these movements.

  15. oh please, don’t get your knickers in such a twist. Campaigns of both parties have used this type of attack for years “this guy is really bad, do you want more of the same if these 2 are in bed together” (metaphorically) Be for real..up until McCain became the presumptive candidate, all the wanna-be candidates did everything they could to distance themselves from Bush; the debate at the Reagan library with no mention of Bush was the biggest move.

  17. Re Vince’s #12. I do not totally disagree. Especially with Sen. “F— You” McCain on the whole “comprehensive immigration reform” bill-scam! Remeber his bud, Sen. Lindsey Graham referring to opponents of the bill-scam as the “Loud folks.”? On that issue, there are too many free-traders that would blur our national borders for a buck. But, overall, I think that there are a lot of Republcans and absolutly conservatives who understand what concerns the American people and are not elites. Remember, there are conservative elites as much as there are liberal, socialist elites.

  18. oh please, don’t get your knickers in such a twist. Campaigns of both parties have used this type of attack for years “this guy is really bad, do you want more of the same if these 2 are in bed together” (metaphorically)

    The point was not about them bashing McCain. Attacks like this are normal. What was bad about it was using the gay relationship as a joke. Jay Leno was attacked for make gay relationship jokes, yet no one is raising a stink about this ad. It’s a double standard for Democrats, and that’s the problem. Personally, the gay jokes don’t bother me, but the hypocrisy of it all gets under my skin.

  21. 20: LOL. Thanks for the biggest laugh of the day, you fascist. bigotry, hatred and intolerance? Last time I checked, it wasn’t a Democratic President who suggested writing bigotry, hatred and intolerance into the constitution, that falls on the current Republican president.

  22. Isn’t that interesting, Kevin; you and your fellow leftist gays fully endorse what you call “writing bigotry, hatred, and intolerance into the constitution” when it’s your Democrat masters doing it.

    Heck, you even give them millions of dollars and call them “pro-gay” and “gay-supportive” when they do it.

  24. Look, you little Timothy Treadwell, it WAS a liberal president who signed bigotry, hatred and intolerance into law. A liberal Texas governor made what you do in your bedroom illegal. Bush was preserving marriage and has said on more than one occasion that he supports civil unions and believes that the states should enact it on their own.

    So you can take fascist and shove it up your Timothy Treadwell sideways.

  26. 22: If had millions of dollars, I sure wouldn’t be giving it to any politician. And I’m sorry, in all 3 articles you site, I don’t find them writing this into the constitution.

    25: Anytime. and thanks for making a sweeping, unsubstantiated, unproven statement you little fascist.

    I find it interesting that in your responses to go so quickly after things like Kerry’s stand on marriage, you seem to magically absolve the Republican party from any culpability in these issues. Want to attack Clinton for DOMA and DADT? go right ahead, I agree 100%. But where is the “party of freedom” in reversing either of these? Sorry, what’s that? Can’t hear you…. We had 6 full years of Republican control, yet I didn’t see anyone in that party step forward to reverse these injustices to a large segment of Americans. And you wonder why Log Cabin supports Democrats? In fact it was Republicans who orchestrated the many anti gay marriage ballots in states for the 2004 election in order to bring more people to the polls to vote in Bush. So get off your alleged moral high horses.

  28. In fact it was Republicans who orchestrated the many anti gay marriage ballots

    In response to liberal gays trying to circumvent the democratic process and FORCE Americans to approve of their relationships by falsely claiming a phony equal rights issue which has been rejected by even the most liberal courts in the country.

    But it just goes to prove liberal gays are totalitarians through and through.

  29. I just find the ad stupid and a waste of money, they really need to get some type of political strategists in there to make something worth while. Why they don’t attack him on something that would stick like the war or the economy….no…they waste money on this. Democratic Part….this is becoming an abusive relationship.

    Go Hillary in 08, or in ’12

  31. “… One can only imagine the howls from the Hypocrite Rights Campaign if this were a Republican-produced ad! Shouldn’t the ‘Liberal Outers’ go after the producer of this ad as much as they did Republican gays working in Congress?”

    You know what makes me feel bad? That I am so tired of the hypocrisy I almost — almost — would rather not have to hear or think about “what ifs” any more. Liberals get away with this, time after time, because — I don’t know why! Are bloggers the only ones holding them accountable? Is that ineffective? It must be since they DO get away with it, mostly. They’ve almost got me looking the other way, which plays right into their hands, and that really bothers me.

    What would be an effective way to hold them accountable? Something different, bold?

  32. And I’m sorry, in all 3 articles you site, I don’t find them writing this into the constitution.

    Thank you for demonstrating complete Democrat blindness.

    You say that supporting the FMA is not writing discrimination into the Constitution.

    You say that supporting state constitutional amendments banning gay marriage is not writing discrimination into any constitution.

    Therefore, supporting the FMA and state constitutional amendments is not discrimination when your Democrat masters do it.

    Pure, unadulterated hypocrisy.

  33. Hell, I can play that game too.

    Want to attack Clinton for DOMA and DADT? go right ahead, I agree 100%. But where is the “party of freedom” in reversing either of these?

    Clinton has been in the Senate for 8 years. Orgasma for four. Neither have lifted ONE DAMN FINGER to reverse either of these. And we’re supposed to believe handing them the WH will make it go away? Maybe in the liberal mind where the Constitution can be waived at will, but not in reality.

    You can shove THAT up your Timothy Treadwell also.

  34. “Orgasma” that’s good.
    On the issue; this sort of absurdity pours from the lips and fingers of the anti-Republican easily, as he will never say what he is for; too risky, just what he is against. See, even if his OWN side is not with him on the issues it is all the fault of the nasty OTHER guys. Why scream and whine about something you want not getting done when your OWN side will not vote for them? I seem to recall the Dems had an absolute majority in one House or the other, no? Hilarious, this is, in it’s purposelessness. But Barry knows one thing the other Dems seem to have missed. African American voters skew rightward on many cultural issues like gay marriage and abortion. This has never had an outlet before among Dems at the national level. Big O is trying to be that vent.

  35. I received a reply from the email that I sent as referred to in comment #11. Their response? They welcomed me into their community and thanked me for joining their site. Clearly reading comprehension is a prerequisite to joining the DNC.

    I also wrote a message to GLAAD because they are the once who went so crazy over Jay Leno’s tasteless jokes. I don’t expect any real action from them either. It’ll just confirm my opinions on the double-standard.
