AFA:GOP Should Not 'Pander' to Ignorant, Naive, and Uneducated Young Voters on Gay Issues

Bryan Fischer is not at all impressed by the Republican National Committee's "autopsy" of what has gone wrong with the GOP leading to back-to-back election losses, and is especially miffed about findings that the party's hostility to gay rights is turning off younger voters.

As Fischer sees it, it is "idiotic" for the GOP to consider changing its message in an effort to win over ignorant and naive young people who don't understand the dangers posed by homosexuality.

"They don't need to be pandered to," Fischer proclaimed, "they need to be educated. We don't pander to the least mature, least intelligent, least informed, least experienced, least educated members of our movement; we educate them."


For once I'm in agreement with Bryan Fisher I think the GOP holding fast to its "values" is a winning strategy and they should stick to it.

The last thing they should do is doubt their Gawd given beliefs.

Don't let anybody talk you out of that! You can't waste time with worthless young voters and their immoral and liberal values (as you call them) Dating before 16 is just WRONG!!! Wearing Long Hair is JUST WRONG if you are a guy. Getting pregnant outside marriage is an offense to God Himself!!! (never mind about that Jesus thing, that was magic)

Can't wait to see these evil stingy uncharitable people to get booted by their own fascism.

5. I think Mr. Fischer needs to goad the Republicans into bringing back miscegenation laws, too.

They are really missing the boat with a large portion of the electorate on this issue.

"The Race Must Be Kept Pure!"

Has a nice ring to it, eh, Bryan?

Now say it while wearing your sheets, it sounds awesome!
