I'm just sitting here going WTF?!?!?!
Dear Oklahoma State Senator Sally Kern,

After careful consideration, listening to this audio clip and actually transcribing it into words, I've come to several conclusions.

1) You were born in the wrong era. If you remove every instance of 'homosexual' in your speech and replace it with 'black' or even 'African-American' you could have been giving a speech straight from the 1960's. Go back a bit earlier, insert 'Jew' or 'Gypsy' and you could have written a prize-winning speech for Hitler and his little band of troublemakers.

2) If this is the kind of knowledge you taught in your 20+ teaching career, it's a wonder any of your students graduated high school, much less went on to lead active, productive lives. You couldn't possibly have taught facts when you are so filled with blind, bigoted hate.

3) The biggest threat to this nation is people like you, especially people like you. It's bad enough when an 'average' citizen is so filled with hate, but when you are a public figure, a person who was actually given the authority to make public policy, to write and pass legislation that impacts people's lives, when somebody like you spreads this kind of hate? It's people like you who are the 'death knell' of this nation.

In short, lady, you are made of fail.

From the Sane portion of the world.

Transcribed from YouTube: Senator Kern's anti-homosexual speech
The homosexual agenda is destroying this nation, k, it's just a fact. Not everybody's lifestyles are equal, just like not all religions are equal. The very fact that I’m talking to you like this, here today, puts me in jeopardy. Ok, uh, and I’m not anti, I’m not gay-bashing, but according to gods word that is not the right kind of lifestyle. It has deadly consequences for those people involved in it. They have more suicides, they’re more discouraged, there's more illness, they're life spans are shorter. You know, uh, it's not a lifestyle that’s good for this nation. Matter of fact, studies show that no society that has totally embraced homosexuality has lasted more than, you know, a few decades. So it's the death kneel for this country. I honestly think that it's the biggest threat even that our nation has, even more so than terrorism and Islam, which I think, is a big threat. Ok, cause what’s happening now they're going after in schools, two year olds. You know why they're trying to get early childhood education? They want to get our young children into the government schools so that they can indoctrinate them. I taught school for close to twenty years and we're not teaching fact and knowledge anymore folks, we're teaching indoctrination. Ok and they're going after our young children, as young as two years of age, to try to teach them that homosexual lifestyle is an acceptable lifestyle.

You know gay are infiltrating city councils. Did you know eureka springs, any body been there for the passion play? K, have you heard that the city council of eureka springs is now controlled by gays. K, there are some others, Pittsburgh, Pensilvanya. Maryland, Kensington Maryland, in Vermont, Oregon, West Palm Beach Florida and lots of other places in Florida, what’s happening? And they are winning elections.

One of the things that I deal with in our legislature, I tried to introduce a bill last year that would notify parents, that schools had to let parents know what clubs their students were involved in. and the reason I did that bill primarily was this, we have the gay-straight alliance coming into our school, kids are getting involved in these groups their lives are being ruined and parents don't know about it. So I introduce the bill that says you have to notify of all clubs and things. And one of my colleges said, you know, we don't have a gay problem in my community, that’s why I voted against that bill. Well you know what, that is so dumb. If you've got cancer or something in your little toe you say well you know, I’m going to forget about it because the rest of you's fine, it spreads ok? And this stuff is deadly and it's spreading and it will destroy our young people and it's going to destroy our nation.

I'm speechless. If someone in politics said that over here, they'd be flayed alive in the papers, on tv and be hounded out of office.

What a revolting person.

I heard that clip and I was...appalled doesn't even come close. How can this woman live with herself? You would think that containing that much hatred and bigotry would blow someone's brain to smithereens.

Thank you for this link! Sadly, I doubt that the vicious and lunkheaded Ms. Kern will care one whit about a single word it says.

What a complete moron! I'm just glad that this time the idiot making the comments isn't from Texas *whew*. I am ashamed that she's a Republican, tho...maybe we can kick her out of the Republican party.

She's allowed to have her own beliefs, but I think it's wrong to use an influential position to push a hateful agenda...but that's a politician for you.

*back to lurk mode*
