| Sally Kern |
Unfortunately, very few on our side handled the controversy in a way which I felt was beneficial to the community. First folks made awful personal comments about her, then some of us waited until Ellen DeGeneres had something to say before we weighed on. Lastly, a lot of us focused on whether or not her son was gay.
And Kern stood above it all in false piety while repeating some of the most ridiculous lies about our community, which no one called her on.
The culmination was a huge astroturfed event held by those on the right - especially Peter LaBarbera - calling her a hero for "standing up to the supposed radical gay activists."
As stated before, I was not happy at how many of us acted during that time. The point we should have made was the danger in the fact that a legislator with voting power in state government could be so ignorant.
However, we missed the boat in making that point.
Thank goodness, however, for Kern's ego because it has given us a second chance. She took the liberty to write a book with a ridiculous title (The Stoning of Sally Kern) which revisited the controversy, thus presenting another chance to demonstrate to folks just how clueless she is.
And thanks to Alan Colmes, we now see this cluelessness on full display.
In an interview with him, Kern reveals herself to be not a Christian woman, but a very dim individual whose religious beliefs consistently leads her down a path of noble stupidity - an oxymoron if there ever was one.
Listen to the entire interview if you like or fast forward to 11:00 for some very hilarious stuff about gays and the closet.
It just goes to show how quickly false piety disappears when confronted with logic.

This is fabulous. That woman is an idiot, and he did an excellent job of exposing that.
I agree! But also I think that she is such an idiot that the fact that she's an idiot is pretty easy to expose.
