5. Sandy Rios: Heterophiliac Mary Kay Cosmetics spokesmodel Sandy Rios has carved out a nice little niche for herself as an AM radio personality and a contributor to Fox News. This wingnut welfare queen keeps herself in poly-cotton blazers and Extra Super-Hold Aqua Net by making statements comparing same sex relationships to the relationship between Cleveland kidnapper Raoul Castro and his three female captives. She also informed the world that among same sex couples, there arent many lasting relationships maybe among lesbians, but certainly not among gay men, thats not the norm.

4. Justice Antonin Scalia: Truly, one of the finest judicial minds of the 15th century, our nations highest-ranking right wing troll wrote a shrill, hackish dissent to the historic decisions regarding DOMA and Prop 8 last summer. In it, he lamented our nations moral decline, played the part of persecuted Christian victim, said that the Courts decisions were based on legalistic argle-bargle and pleaded for the return of Texas old-school anti-sodomy laws.

3. Pat Robertson: Somewhere, right now, a damp old wad of chewing gum, a hairpiece and a pair of dentures are snoring together in a tank of life-giving protoplasm. That hair-studded pink mass is the worlds oldest living televangelist, Pat Robertson, who will doubtless rise within 72 hours to say something breathtakingly hateful and ignorant in his quavering old mans voice, like, gay men wear special rings that allow them to slash the hands of other people during a routine handshake and infect them with HIV.

2. Bryan Fischer: Fischer, national spokesman for the American Family Association, lands on this list mainly for his absolute tirelessness. He is a deeply unoriginal man, sticking to an age-old litany of false accusations against LGBT people, that were mentally ill child molesters, that were anti-Christian and that the horrible, secular gay mafia is going to come to your house and break the legs of your end tables and force you to marry someone of your own sex.

1. That pig-ignorant cracker from Duck Dynasty: Whats his name? Hap? Spud? Keebo? Oh, right, Phil Robertson. Some might argue with his placement at the top of this chart due to his newness to the field, but this patriarch of a family of yuppie poseurs turned unkempt millionaires really made a splash this year with his statements conflating gay sex and bestiality as well as his assertion that African-Americans were happier when they were singin, field-workin indentured servants.

(295 posts)1. Why bring racists into...
anti-LGBT rankings? That makes the writer seem confused and/or insincere.

(1,074 posts)2. Perhaps the racist is also a homophobe. n/t
NCLefty
(3,678 posts)3. I consider racism/homophobia to be largely the same thing.
The ignorance and hate is nearly indistinguishable.
That's why gay people who are racists are especially low on my list.
