This is absolutely ridiculous...
This is the third story I've read today DEMANDING to know if Kagan is gay. Why the hell are these people so concerned about what people do in their bedrooms and who they do it with?!?!

These are the same imbeciles that call for smaller government, but want the gov. to tell you who you can marry and what you can do with your body.

I can't even begin to express my anger... :argh:


Chaps Klingenschmitt Likewise Demands To Know if Kagan Is Gay

http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/chaps-klingenschmitt-likewise-demands-know-if-kagan-gay


Gordon "Chaps" Klingenschmitt is also demanding to know whether Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan is gay and is launching a petition urging the Senate to "oppose and filibuster reported Lesbian Elena Kagan's nomination to the Supreme Court":

As far back as 2006 and 2007, four different Harvard Law Students confirmed that Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan was a Lesbian. Why is the Obama Administration now suddenly ashamed of Kagan's homosexual orientation?

CBS News first reported that President Obama's new Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan will be the "first openly gay justice," pleasing much of Obama's liberal base. But after pressure from the White House they amended the report: "I have to correct my text here to say that Kagan is apparently still closeted -- odd, because her female partner is rather well known in Harvard circles." CBS later pulled the report entirely, after The Washington Post criticized CBS policy, saying "most major news organizations have policies against 'outing' gays or reporting on the sex lives of public officials unless they are related to their public duties."

Why the sudden media blackout, even among conservative news organizations?

Only the Alliance Defense Fund asked, "If Elena Kagan Is a Lesbian, She Should Say So because Public Has a Right to Know." Kagan's private sex life already has, and will directly impact her public Supreme Court decisions, especially on "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," and other issues.

In breaking news, Chaplain Klingenschmitt reveals that four different Harvard Law School students reported Kagan was Lesbian Homosexual as far back as 2006 and 2007.

The 4 Harvard law students' quotes are now online at www.prayinjesusname.org/kagan.

1. If they couldn't attack her for being gay, they would find something else.
It isn't her sexuality, it's that she has to be attacked one way or the other.

3. I know you're right..
but what angers me is if you want to attack her based on her political leanings that's one thing. But someone's sexuality should NEVER be a reason for attack, anymore than someone's religion or non religion views. Those are personal matters, and shouldn't even be in the arena of discussion.

4. Yes... between her gender, sexual preferences and body weight
(as brought up her in a revolting post), they always have her religion. I am actually surprised that hasn't come up, but I guess the other issues are far more "concerning" at the moment.

9. Yeah I've seen..
quite a few of the "fat", "ugly" comments while I was cruising different sites. Disgusting, that that's what's important to these idiots.

And they have the nerve to call Dem's sexist.

And they worship someone who thinks our country was founded on what the Bible says...cuz she's purdy... :wtf:

2. These people that always focus on sexual identity have some very serious
difficulties in their own sexual lives. We have seen this over and over and over again with these damn fools. If many Americans weren't so ignorant these people harping on gay versus straight versus whatever would be laughed out of any recognition at all.

What a fool's paradise the US has become. I've been listening to this crap for decades and decades. I wish these people would grow up and get a life. They are so fucken boring, the same crap over and over and over.

5. Odd how their curiosity seems not to extend to Republican political
figures -- say, some in the Southern states.

Just sayin'.
