Kevin Lundberg - Colorado’s Village Idiot!

From examiner.com:

Republican State Representative Kevin Lundberg is busy staking out territory as Colorado’s new useful idiot, a post previously held by Doug Bruce. Lundberg issued a demented press release on Friday questioning the validity of global warming. Previously, Lundberg has tried to pass bills in the state legislature to redefine pregnancy and eliminate domestic partnership rights for gay and lesbian couples.

What Gay Groups are Taking Responsibility?

Two weeks ago today, citizens in three states approved amendments to their respective constitutions to define marriage as the union of one man and one woman. Nearly every gay group across the nation rallied to defeat these ballot measures. This was not the first time they had failed to sway voters.

Only one leader of gay organization committed to defeating such initiatives has stepped down since November 4. (That leader is the head of the only national gay Republican organization.)

Instead of clearing the decks and making way for new leadership and new strategies, the other national gay organizations (as those in the Golden State) are retaining their current leadership and have so far given no indication that they intend to develop a new strategy to promote their agenda.

Prince Stands Out Against Gay Marriage

“So here’s how it is,” Prince began, “You’ve got the Republicans, and basically they want to live according to this.” He pointed to a Bible.

According to a post in Minneapolis Star Tribune, Prince recently stated in an interview, “But there’s the problem of interpretation, and you’ve got some churches, some people, basically doing things and saying it comes from here, but it doesn’t.”

Prince then went on to say this about Democrats, “They’re, like, ‘You can do whatever you want.’ Gay marriage, whatever. But neither of them is right.”

When asked for his views on gay marriage and abortion, Prince tapped his Bible and said, “God came to earth and saw people sticking it wherever and doing it with whatever, and he just cleared it all out. He was, like, ‘Enough.’ “

Right Wing Whack Jobs & the Obama/Hitler Comparison

The Right Wing Whack jobs are at it again. A simple google search brings up hundreds of web pages making comparisons between Obama and Hitler. Now we’ve got a Republican Congressman in Georgia making the same comparison. It isn’t merely ugly, nor merely intellectually dishonest, this is about twisted values of Republicans.

Door for Gay Marriage May Open in New York

According to a post on newsday.com:
Even as voters in California banned same-sex marriage in a tight referendum, Tuesday’s election opened the door for the same debate in New York.

The pending shift in state Senate control away from Republicans removes one clear obstacle to legalizing gay marriage in New York, though opponents aren’t conceding anything yet and advocates say they have work to do.

Democrats won a narrow majority in New York’s Senate, where Republicans have buried legislation to start issuing marriage licenses regardless of gender. A Senate power shift was not a sure thing because four Democrats were considering an alliance with the GOP, which could swing the 32-30 majority back to Republicans.

“The only chance we had for meaningful debate or consideration of these issues in the state Senate was with a new Senate leadership,” said Alan Van Capelle, executive director of the Empire State Pride Agenda, New York’s largest homosexual-rights advocacy group. He added that no bills have passed in New York without some votes from members of both parties.
