Oh, oh, it would seem that my guy Rick Perry has gone and pissed off the light-in-the-loafers crowd. He’s been described as having sparked outrage from both gay rights groups and Democrats with what were described as being his "toxic" remarks comparing homosexuality to alcoholism. Sounds like a fair comparison to me. But look, personally I really don’t care what people do in the privacy of their home, but I resent it being constantly shoved in my face.
According to the Dallas Morning News, it was some liberal boob by the name of Will Hailer, the Texas Democrat Party executive director, who wasted very little time in chastising Perry for his supposed ‘toxic’ comments. He said, "Gov. Rick Perry should be ashamed of himself." The trouble with gays is that they simply expect us all to be accepting of their chosen lifestyle. A lifestyle that, to say the least, comes with it’s own rather unique set of health risks.
Perry made his little comparison on Wednesday at the Commonwealth Club of California in San Francisco after being asked the rather loaded question of whether he believes homosexuality is a disorder. You know, those on the left are always preaching about tolerance. And yet who is that is the least tolerant of the views of others. We who do not agree with their preferred lifestyle MUST be tolerant of them, but that tolerance doesn’t seem to go both ways.
"Whether or not you feel compelled to follow a particular lifestyle or not, you have the ability to decide not to do that," said Perry, who's not seeking re-election, in remarks broadcast on the local CBS affiliate. Perry went on to say, "I may have the genetic coding that I'm inclined to be an alcoholic, but I have the desire not to do that. And I look at the homosexual issue in the same way." And, honestly, what’s really wrong with that statement?
But Hailer said, "The governor should be working to bring Texans together instead of grandstanding across the country and spewing toxic, ill-informed rhetoric." The comments, which were called controversial by some, have been said to have spread across the Internet like wildfire. And they were also slammed by some group who calls itself the Human Rights Campaign, a group supporting gay rights, at least according to the Houston Chronicle.
It was Fred Sainz, vice president for communications at the Human Rights Campaign who said, "Although he may not have the ‘genetic coding' to think before he speaks, Rick Perry, M.D. should have a real conversation with actual doctors before voicing his expertise on these issues." This boob went on to say, "Every major mental health and medical organization in the country has condemned practices aimed at changing a person's sexual orientation."
I guess my question is, how stupid must gays really be for them not to be able to recognize the fact that the ONLY reason even the Democrats go along with their questionable lifestyle is because they want gays to vote for them. It’s not that they necessarily condone the gay lifestyle. So all of this holier-than-thou bullshit is just that, bullshit. And although many folks think that gays make up 25 percent of the population, it’s actually much closer to only 2-4 percent.
Now I think it pretty safe to say that gays in this country are a pretty solid Democrat constituency, and that’s fine with me. And if they want to keep on voting for the party that’s destroying this country they can feel free to do just that, but they’re liable to be in for a rude awakening. Because they might want to consider the fact that when the country goes under, which it is now very close to doing, it’s gonna go under for everyone, gays and straights alike.
