...'I would also seek out people like Tom Coburn, who is probably the most conservative member of the U.S. Senate. He has become a friend of mine."
Ok. I'm truly attempting to be rational about this. But, Tom Coburn is an out and out bigot.
Coburn: "The gay community has infiltrated the very centers of power in every area across this country, and they wield extreme power ... That agenda is the greatest threat to our freedom that we face today. Why do you think we see the rationalization for abortion and multiple sexual partners? That's a gay agenda."
Coburn again: "Lesbianism is so rampant in some of the schools in southeast Oklahoma, they will only let one girl go to the bathroom. Now think about it.
Mr. Obama, you cannot seriously expect to ask for my vote and then publicly tell the gay community that you would work with and ask advice of Tom Coburn and his ilk.
I would not work with nor ask advice of a racist, were I in public office. The least we can expect from you is that you disdain and disavow bigots and bigotry when you're running for the nomination of the Democratic party.
THINK THESE THINGS THROUGH, BARACK, BEFORE YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH!
