GOP Candidate Using Homophobia To Raise Cash
http://www.365gay.com/Newscon05/12/122105moore.htm

Former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore is asking supporters for a Christmas gift of cash to help his campaign for governor.

Moore is facing off against Gov. Bob Riley for the GOP nomination.

In an e-mail sent to supporters and signed by Moore's wife Kayla, she asks for donations and says that her husband is opposed by people who want to promote gay marriage and who "fear nothing more than the emergence of a powerful national spokesperson for Christian conservatism.

"And make no mistake: If elected governor of Alabama, my husband will be that spokesman!" she wrote.

1. Now why does this headline and that name not surprise me?
I await the time when these mutations of humanity begin dying off.

4. NO, I want the to live long and ever increasingly useless lives as
more and more people backlash against the hate. I want him sitting in a chair in his 90's, all alone, drooling on himself - with the only function he's capable of is looking back on his life and wondering how it all went so wrong.

6. re: "mutations of humanity begin dying off."..... I am working on a theory
that that is indeed happening. Its just observation now; looking around me and seeing all these old blue-hair republicans and old bigots (I'm referring to age 70 or so who are trying to hold on to "what it used to be like" and their issues are God, Guns and Gays and Flags). There are a lot of them left. People are more enlightened these days, but sadly not paying enough attention to what is going on in media manipulation.

2. And this is the A-hole that supports the '10 commandments' monument...
display in a public government building. I think he better go back to his monument and read 'WHAT' it says. Seem to recall something about 'loving thy neighbor' and I don't recall anything about 'except if he or she is gay'.

7. Nah.....
The 10 Commandments don't say anything about loving your neighbor. They just say that you're not supposed to covet your neighbor's ass. }(

3. His wife should wear a burka
to fulfill his sick fantasies.

5. REAL Christians promote donations ...
... to the poor, the hungry and the homeless at this time of year, as an appropriate way of observing the birth of their Saviour.

FAKE 'Christians' use the season as a way of putting THEIR OWN HAND OUT for money.

Apparently Mr. Moore has just declared WAR ON CHRISTMAS!
