In wake of DADT repeal, homophobes just can't stop talking about 'gay sex' and the 'gay agenda'

If you want the typical rightwinger reaction to yesterday's excellent repeal of DADT, look no further than the Town Hall column of Kevin McCullough.

McCullough, supposedly the leader of what he calls the "Musclehead Revolution" had the following to say:

1. What happens to housing, on base and in theater?

If it is morally questionable to have men and women housed together because of the sexual tension that exists between primarily men who would be predatorily interested in the women they might shower with or frequently be seen in the act of dressing and undressing on a regular basis, why is it any different if you have identified the predatory homosexual male who might have an unrequited "thing" for a fellow service member? If it is proper to keep men and women housed separately do we now go to four sets of housing. Men who don't engage in homosexual activity, Men who do, Women who don't, Women who do? Practically speaking Mr. President how do you get past the fundamental sexual tension that will be present the minute some make it known?

2. Do you expect the military system or the civilian courts to deal with the influx of phony sexual harassment cases to follow?

Oh brother. With this monstrosity of a column, McCullough unites two of his favorite targets of ridicule  - President Obama whom he feels he has a right to criticize because he is a man who has fathered a son whose skin is darker than the average African American (his exact words) and the lgbt community, whom he swears up and down are created by older, lecherous gay men molesting younger men:

The "alphas" in homosexual relationships, be they men or women, are many times recruiting younger partners. A vast percentage of those who enter the homosexual life do so after having been sexually initiated by an older person of their sex – be it consensual or not – it usually has the feel of enticement or seduction. - The 'gay' truth

And then rabid right-wing site Free Republic is throwing a mega tantrum, actually threatening to delete the accounts of members who dare to support the lgbt community:

If you support the homosexual agenda you are anti-constitution and you'll get the zot from FR. Homosexuals already have the same "rights" as everyone else. God did not grant and the constitution does not guarantee homosexuals any special rights. In fact, the homosexual agenda is a full frontal attack on OUR God-given, constitutionally protected rights to free speech, freedom of religion, freedom of association, Life, Family, Marriage, Pursuit of Happiness, etc.

I don't want it on FR and won't have it on FR.

Like abortion, if you support the homosexual agenda on FR, your account here will be zotted!

Don't like it? Tough frickin Shinola! Get the hell OFF this conservative site!!

I wouldn't bother to read anything further on the thread. It's rife with ugliness and comments like McCullough's but less, shall we say, polite.

You really can't say anything about people like this. You keep one eye open so as not to take what they say lightly, but at the same time, you don't give them more credit than what they deserve.

The only reason why I am talking about them is because I want to point out just how sad it is that not only are some people on the wrong side of history, but they are actually wearing that dubious honor like a banner.

These are not honorable people, these are not moral people. They are pitiful people worse than a pig who proudly covers itself with mud and manure.

We are honorable people fighting for what should have been ours from day one - equality, dignity, the right to love, and the right to self-determination.

We must never forget the differences between them and us.
