Ms. Kern I expected better

I think it is a perfect example of the hypocrisy of our country when a man who sleeps with a prostitute is forced out of office, but a woman who claims that people who are gay are worse than terrorists is allowed to not only remain unapologetic and unrepentant, but also gets to keep her office.

Hate speech apparently is a far lesser offense than pre-martial sex.

Representative Sally Kern was taped recently stating that homosexuality is a far worse problem to America than Islamic terrorists. She said that the fact that we are teaching tolerance to children of others who might be gay in our public schools is the result of gays infiltrating our city councils and other governments in an attempt to press their “gay agenda.”

Well, I don’t know about Ms. Kern, but I have never thought that teaching tolerance to children was pushing any sort of agenda other than trying to make the world a slightly better place. I don’t understand how someone who is a self proclaimed die-hard Christian can be preaching against the very foundations of what Christ believed in.

His message was about tolerance and hope and she (and those like her) dare to get up in front of audiences and try to scare them into the word of god by claiming that acceptance of gay people will lead to the society’s downfall because of god’s wrath. She needs to pick a book and stick with it. Either she is an old testament believer who deigns in the wrath of an indignant god, or she is a new testament person who believes in the redeeming power of Christ’s sacrifice for ALL HUMANITY. Not just those whom he decided were worthy.

People who don’t fully study or understand their own religions piss me off, but that is far off topic. I really just wanted to point out what a lopsided world we live in when the non-violent act is punishable by expulsion from office because it is sexual in nature while the other seems to be accepted by her party for spewing hateful propaganda.

I’m not sure how Sally Kern sleeps at night knowing that her words may have helped some young gay man or woman get attacked. I mean, after all, according to her they are worse than terrorists so some ill-informed member of the public could mistakenly believe that they are acceptable targets of hate. I hope that if it does happen someone in the victim’s family at least sues the pants off Ms. Kern. At least then she might get a more public shaming for her words because I doubt she will ever feel remorse for the actions that could result from her words unless someone points it out to her.
