Pam Spaulding has pulled together the interesting reaction from the right, using words like “judicial activism,” “Walker pushing his own homosexual agenda,” and it was “the whim of one judge.” Liberty Counsel’s reaction (home to Peter LaBarbera): Today [...]

Irrational Anti-gay Arguments

Since I subscribe to various right wing-nut email lists, I usually get to see the daily anti-gay rhetoric fill my email box. Today’s nonsense drivel comes in the form of an American Family Association email about repealing “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” Gays showering with straights? Absolutely.
