I'm Kern-fused...

First, Sally Kern, in her gay-crucifying speech (I was gonna use "gay-bashing" but I don't think that term goes far enough) presents such mistruths as "gays have shorter lifespans" (which, if she's referring to AIDS, she obviously hasn't picked up a medical journal in about, oh fifteen years...) and "no society that has embraced homosexuality lasted more than a few decades," (hmmm, maybe she should read up on ancient Roman practices and get back to me...they lasted more than a few decades, right?). Then, the former Social Studies teacher proceeds to hang the crux of her fear-mongering on the claim that "in schools....they don't teach facts anymore, they teach indoctrination."

 If her little display of ignorant hatred isn't fact-spinning and indoctrination, what is? And, tell me, how long are we going to just sit here and tolerate the undending instances where our leaders completely reject reality and fact, and just state whatever unfounded claim they believe will further their own personal cause? When will they be held accountable for the things that come out of their mouths? 

We're working on putting up a brand-new website at Progressive Future, which will offer supporters more chances to take action, voice their opinions and, for once, hold our leaders accountable. While the new website isn't up yet, you can still go to our old website, http://progressivefuture.org?id4=BL, and join our email list, which will notify you when the new site is up. Don't let outrage get the better of you without taking action!
