This Week in Gayness: Sally Kern Strikes Back

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

Rumors are swirling that Sally Kern, outed as a homo-hater by our own Katie Halper, is taking her problems out on the gays to get back at her own son...

BGay.com has the brief story on Kern, the anti-civil rights lawmaker who has crusaded against all things unholy and fantabulous, has disowned her gay son Jesse. No word on which came first-- her hatred of the gays or finding out her son was born "different." 

In other homosexual news: 

Oh, those Moroccans! They aren't apparently as liberal as we thought, and certainly not as liberal as New York City, Canada, or an Istanbul prison.

The star of the UK's Celebrity Big Brother was compared to serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer because he likes to lie with men. 

Your LGBT neighbors support Hillary

According to the right-wing media, "Angels in America" is a gay porn play for high schoolers.

"Matt Barber, director of cultural issues with Concerned Women for America, was amazed by the explicit nature of the book"  I love that "Concerned Women for America" has a man as their director of cultural issues.  Kind of explains it all, doesn't it?
