Clean up your own house

After Jessica McBride got done trying to make all Democrats looking bad because a few of them running for office are on the fringe, Xoff correctly notes that the people McBride cites were soundly defeated while the Republican side actually nominates people on the edge.

The views of some of in the Republican party are not only outside of the mainstream, they can be hateful and cruel. Take the Republican running against Rep. Terry Van Akkeran in Sheboygan. Here is part of a post on an internet board from that candidate:

Truth and Morality are "timeless," and not subject to Popular Opinion. If there are 100 people in a room, and all 100 Vote that Homosexuality is Okay, irregardless, Homosexuality is still Morally Wrong.



If you polled 1,000 Groups of 1,000 each about whether it is Morally Wrong for an adult man to have sex with an 8 year old girl, you would probably find at least 1 pedophile, in each Group, who would say sex with an 8 year old girl is okay. So now, if we take that 1 pedophile from each Group, and form 1 Group of 1,000 pedophiles, and they unanimously Vote that is is completely acceptable for an adult man to have sex with an 8 year old girl, will that make it Morally Right? No.



Homosexuality is no different. Homosexuality has always been recognized as a Sexual Perversion, and simply because society has become weak on the subject, and has bowed to the Vocal Minority, does not make Homosexuality Morally Right, any more than a Group of pedophiles Voting to approve of pedophilia.



What was Morally Wrong before, is still Morally Wrong now. All the Theories, and Studies in the World, that falsely conclude that some people are "born Homosexual," will not make Homosexuality Morally Right. These are simply people in need of Psychological Counseling, the same as pedophiles are in need of Psychological Counseling. Plain and Simple. End of Story.

No doubt this candidate has seen that the Republican Party has welcomed similar views from their elected lunatic, Senator Tom Reynolds (R-West Allis) and felt comfortable sharing them with people on the internet.

I feel confident the voters of the Sheboygan area will reject these views and this candidate in November, but will fellow Republicans like Jessica McBride be writing any time soon about the need to reject the views of Van Akkren's opponent because they are outside of the mainstream?

Didn't think so.
