American Family Assocation Bent Out of Shape Over Indiana LGBT License plate



Indiana recently became the first state in the Union to issue an LGBT license plate, for the Indiana Youth Group, which looks after the needs of self-identified Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender or Questioning youths.  All purchases of the license plate, you will help fund programs at the IYG.
Well of course the American Family Association which hates all things gay, all the time has got thier tailpipes in an uproar.
Said AFA Executive Director Micah Clark: “You have to question what the DMV was thinking when they approved a license plate for a group which recruits teens into the homosexual lifestyle. Since health risks do not seem to matter, what is to prevent a cigar club from now getting a license plate from the DMV? State agencies should be neutral in the politically charged culture war especially the promotion of homosexuality among minors. It is very disappointing that Indiana is the first state in the nation to have a license plate celebrating youth involved in homosexual behaviors.”
Of course, the pro-family – anti-abortion license plates are just fine though even though they go to fund extremists potential homeland terrorist groups.
After all many shootings, murders and bombings are gay youth groups responsible for in the name of God?

Anti-Gay AFA Loves Marriage So Much, They’ve Endorsed Gingrich for Prez

Meet the many wives of Newt "Marriage Protector" Gingrich: Marianne Ginther Gingrich, Jackie Battley Gingrich & Callista Bisek Gingrich

If the Southern Poverty Law Center hadn’t already designated the American Family Association a hate group, we’d be afraid that the group would have something of a credibility crisis on its hands after endorsing New Gingrich for president.

Newt’s virulently anti-gay, so there’s no problem there. The thing is, he’s also virulently anti-fidelity, having twice divorced wives he cheated on to marry his then mistresses. Wife number one notoriously got the Newt boot for “not being young or pretty enough to be First Lady.” Oh, and also having cancer.

Wife number two was also divorced after falling ill. Newt must have skipped the “in sickness and in health” part of his marriage vows.

The Des Moines Register writes:

The fact is simple — marriage equals money. Groups like AFA need gay people more than they need to “protect marriage.” If AFA wanted to protect marriage, it would be supporting laws to make divorce harder, not candidates who serve as its poster child.
 
No matter how much one twists logic, it is factually (and morally) impossible to reconcile the desire to “protect marriage” with the endorsement of Newt Gingrich. This was a disastrous decision by an organization that appears to care more about profiting from gay fearmongering than strengthening marriage.

The moral of this story, therefore, is clear. If you abandon two wives for two mistresses all you need to do is oppose the happiness of two people of the same sex to have your moral creds restored. Meet the Pharisees of the 21st century; a bunch of sad sacks time is leaving behind.
