Ethics

More Sally Kern Stupidity

By Ed Brayton

Pam Spaulding has the full text of a letter released by Oklahoma's anti-gay nut Rep. Sally Kern where she peddles as much absurdity as she did in that idiotic screed against gays last week. She predictably does what so many do when criticized, conflate criticism with censorship:

"In recent years homosexual activists have begun to aggressively promote their agenda through the political process, often providing substantial financing to candidates who agree with their views, including many running for state legislative races. National publications such as Time, The Atlantic and USA Today have noted that trend. That is their right, just as it is my right to voice opposition to their agenda, which I have been asked to do at several public forums in recent months. That's what democracy is all about. It appears some homosexual activists believe only one group is allowed a voice in this debate. I disagree.
