‘Clueless’ actress Stacey Dash: It’s ‘propaganda’ to say GOP is against marriage equality

‘Clueless’ actress Stacey Dash: It’s ‘propaganda’ to say GOP is against marriage equality

Outspoken Hollywood Republican Stacey Dash said that it’s ridiculous to say that the Republican Party doesn’t support same-sex marriage.

The New Civil Rights Movement quoted a Dash appearance on TMZ, in which she said, “We are for equal marriage, we’re not against that, we’re not against that at all. We believe everyone should have the same rights.”

However, as David Badash noted at The New Civil Rights Movement, only 19 percent of Fox News viewers approve of same-sex marriage. The network hired Dash as a contributor earlier this year...

The 2012 Republican National Convention party platform stated unequivocally stated, “we believe that marriage, the union of one man and one woman must be upheld as the national standard, a goal to stand for, encourage, and promote through laws governing marriage.” ...

It would be quite interesting if there was a way to give all candidates and party advocates a truth serum right before election cycle.

We wouldn't hear the endless baloney about how Party A and Party B are both for the middle class.

Of course, the American public would probably eat up the abuse, much as the executives did in this Jim Carrey rant:
