I keep seeing the same tired, pathetic and clearly desperate spin on the Foley story on just about every right-wing message board on the web; Conservatives whining about the Democrats being hypocrites because of the outrage towards the Foley drama.
Here's the thing, in my point of view, and so far it's shut up plenty of right-wing morons online.
The Conservatives have run on "family values" for years and they've made it abundantly clear that their version of "family values" is a thinly veiled anti-gay agenda because they've made a killing scapegoating gays to placate the Religious Right. They've consistently demonized the gay community with glee on a regular basis, ruining lives and gay families, at every available opportunity to garner money, power, and votes.
Now, suddenly, when it's revealed that Conservatives' "family values" is nothing but a hollow marketing ploy, they're trying to spin this to say Democrats are hypocrites for their outrage.
Bullshit!
They can't have it both ways!
They've dug this grave for themselves and they deserve it.
(On edit: Woops on the typo in the headline...)
