Inadvertent e-mail attachment details group’s anti-gay strategy

(Oh boy, this is good)

The comments from Colleen Holmes, who heads the right-wing group based in Washington, D.C., appeared to have been inadvertently included in an e-mail to local radio host Jack E. Jett last week. Jett, who’s openly gay, later provided a copy of the e-mail to Dallas Voice and other media outlets.

“I hate to risk pulling a McCain,” Holmes joked in the e-mail to Jett, referring to Republican vice presidential nominee John McCain’s proposal to postpone a debate last week.

“I was giving more thought to why people are hesitant to get involved in the issue, which led to trying to brainstorm ways to counter the ‘Will and Grace’ effect,” Holmes wrote. “The other side has so effectively used rhetoric and emotionality to manipulate and flat-out bully many Americans away from taking any position indicating that homosexuality is wrong. It’s not surprising that politicians, media members and even military leaders are shying away from the topic, because Hollywood and other media outlets react so virulently at even the slightest hint of negativity toward homosexuality.”

“The issue has become such a tar baby, people don’t want to go anywhere near it, because the ‘homophobe’ moniker is so dreaded and so liberally applied,” Holmes wrote.

Just when I think the Wing Nuts can't get any crazier, another one rears their bigoted head to outdo the last nut that opened their mouth.

1. I just love it when they fuck up like this.

And they seem to do it with some regularity. :rofl:

[JackBeck]

3. And it looks like she's a graduate of the Tony Snow school of racial insensitivity.

The regularity of their fuck ups just speeds up their spiral downfall into insignificance.

2. I know what they should do: shut the fuck up and get their noses out

of everybody else's business.

5. At this point, let them keep talking.

They're doing much more good for our cause than harm.

But you're right that they should keep their noses out of decisions made by consensual adults.

6. Give them enough rope... I think they have been discredited, and for

the most part ignored by the younger generations.

4. Yes, how dare Hollywood show openly gay people

in a fair way. They should be showing them eating babies, like the bible says they do.
