'Ex-gay' event in DC a SUPER disaster

From Right-Wing Watch:

Yesterday, American Family Radio’s Sandy Rios spoke to Ex-Gay Pride Month organizer Christopher Doyle about today’s ex-gay lobby day on Capitol Hill. Doyle, who was organizing the since-canceled Ex-Gay Pride banquet at the Family Research Council, complained in an interview with the Christian Post that “un-American” LGBT rights advocates have “shut us out,” explaining that “because of all this homo-fascism and indoctrination in the media, ex-gays aren’t given a fair shake.”

Rios confidently predicted that “thousands of ex-gays are descending” on Washington for a press conference planned for today at the Supreme Court. She lamented that when she led Concerned Women for America the media refused to hear “our ex-gay friends” because it “undermined the whole effort of the homosexual lobby.”

If I was Rios, I wouldn't play the lottery any time soon. Fewer than 10 showed up:


You can see other pictures of this disaster at Right-Wing Watch. Also, enjoy this video from the event. It's so pitiful that it becomes hilarious.

    I remember last year when there was a rally like this and the report I saw said, "threes and threes of people showed up." They should be proud, they got their numbers up.

    I thought the event was cancelled due to threats by homo-fascist terrorists or something like that.

    Maybe Sandy didn't get the memo.

  6. I'm baffled why anybody would identify as "ex-gay." If a person were ashamed to be gay, would they not be equally ashamed to be ex-gay, and identify as straight, instead? The only "ex-gays" we hear of are those in paid ex-gay business positions.
