| SC Rep. Garry Smith |
If this blog had a "tacky shit-o-meter," the following item would be number one this week. One of the South Carolina legislators
attacking state colleges for assigning books with gay-themes actually sent out a fundraising letter with claim so nauseating that Anita Bryant would tell him to tone it down.
I hope you haven't eaten before reading this snippet from Rep. Garry Smith:
Dear Friend,
Radical leftists constantly try to assert that political
conservatives, cultural traditionalists, people of faith — basically
anyone who doesn't agree with their agenda — are "intolerant." But let's
step back and take a good look at who's being intolerant.
I'm Rep. Garry Smith, and I've recently taken a bold stand that has
put me squarely in the crosshairs of some of the most intolerant people
in American today — the far-left militant homosexual community...
There is a concerted effort to push anti-American, anti-Christian, and
non-traditional values onto our children at their most intellectually
vulnerable stages — as they're learning in our public schools and
universities. I've been watching this phenomenon unfold for years and,
finally, a recent event pushed me to the breaking point.
When the College of Charleston and the University of South
Carolina-Upstate required that college students read blatantly
pro-homosexual and pornographic propaganda without any alternative or
counter-balancing view being offered, I said, "Enough is enough!"
As legislators, we have limited power to stop this nation's cultural
slide, but one thing we do control are the purse strings of our public
schools. That includes our K-12 schools and our public colleges and
universities. I will not stand idly by and allow our tax dollars to be
used to fund radical leftists' and militant homosexuals' propaganda
machine.
I led the charge in the South Carolina legislature to strip funding
from the public institutions of learning that are pushing this garbage
on our students — and that's what it is, GARBAGE!
You can imagine the reaction that is now sweeping our part of this
great nation. For taking a stand and saying, "You're not spending my
tax dollars and those of my constituents to push this garbage on our
children," and now, I'm being threatened and called every name in the
book.
It's the usual bullying routine you see whenever someone who holds to
traditional values takes a stand against the radical left. The true
hatred, bigotry, and intolerance that exists in this country comes out
and the individual carrying the flag for traditional values is targeted
with vicious verbal attacks, smears, threats, and intimidation.
You can read the rest at
Charleston City Paper. By the way, Smith is so full of crap that you can smell him with both nostrils closed. He is running unopposed.
Now ain't THAT scary?
