The PC Crowd Wants OPM to Support Sodomy; Stan Lee says No

By Jeff “Mario” Smith, Guerilla Reporter

October 18, 2006

In these days of political correctness (PC), political corruption, and political scandal, it is rare when a politician stands up to do what is right for his constituents, knowing the onslaught that will engulf him from the raucous PC crowd. Representative Stan Lee, Lexington, has done just that and we should all thank and support him.

According to the October 18^th edition of LEFTington’s Heraldo-Liberal news rag, Representative Lee has introduced a bill, BR-102, which would bar “domestic partner”, code word for homosexual or non-married, benefits at schools. In July, U of L approved these expensive benefits for their homosexuals and live-ins and U of K is considering doing the same thing.

These liberal sanctuaries we call universities are publicly supported, read taxpayer funded, and they act like we taxpayers have nothing to say about all this PC. While U of L has already committed our money to this family institution destroying concept, UK’s taxpayer funded Board of Trustees authorized a committee to “make recommendations” on “domestic-partner” benefits by early 2007. Liberals love using other people’s money (OPM) to force their agenda on our society, AKA “social change”.

There is not a part of our Kentucky community more rabid and fire-breathing than the liberal homosexual activists. The Heraldo-Liberal article by Art Jester states that Stan Lee’s bill “has drawn fire from two gay-rights (read sodomy promoting) organizations.” This is like saying water is wet, no surprise here. It is also no surprise that rags like LEFTington’s Heraldo-Liberal and Screwyville’s Communist-Journal readily give a voice to these tiny groups of socialist liberals who bully the rest of us with their PC.

Christina Gilgor of the sodomy-supporting Kentucky Fairness Alliance, labeled the bill “disgraceful”. So! That is like saying child molesters think the sex offender registry is oppressive. Who cares! The best thing we can do for these lost people is to pray for them to understand truth and follow God’s Word, not enable them to continue down the dark path to destruction. This is what the Kentucky Fairness Alliance states on their website: “With over 10,000 members, the Kentucky Fairness Alliance seeks to advance equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people through leadership development, public education and by encouraging participation in the democratic process.”

Then Gilgor goes on to say that Representative Lee “is playing politics rather than acting in the best interests of Kentucky’s families and children.” After I got off the floor from laughing so hard, I had to comment on the sheer audacity of this statement. What is more outside of the interests of Kentucky’s families than the promotion of homosexuality and non-married partnerships? This woman is clearly lost in the murky waters of political correctness which rules every discussion in our society today.

Someone named Jordan Palmer, alleged president of something called the Kentucky Equality Federation, said local governments and institutions “have a better understanding of what’s in the best interests of their community.” Oh really? So, we the people, who elected these “politicians”, have nothing to say; only our liberally controlled “institutions” know what is best? This is very revealing of the liberal mindset. Liberals really do believe that they know best what is “good for us”. Hence their empowerment of government over man in opposition to how this nation was formed which was through the endowment of God empowering man who then empowered government. This fellow, like his “partner” at the Kentucky Fairness Alliance, is also clearly lost in liberalism. Amazing!

Expressing the arrogance of those who spend our tax dollars frivolously, Ernie Yarnarella, UK faculty trustee in his 36^th year as a political science professor, no surprise here, said he doesn’t believe the legislature should intervene in what should be internal policy decided by UK. I have news for Mr. Yarnarella. UK is spending my money, so I have everything to say and you have to listen. Wake up, man! The University is constantly whining for more money, yet they want to shove these anti-family policies, which will cost lots of money, down our throats. This is arrogance, pure arrogance, and it is a byproduct of the mental disorder of liberalism!

Ferrell Wellman of WLAP Radio in LEFTington, who replaced conservative Dave Baker, commented that the bill would have a pretty good chance “because the voters (of Kentucky) already expressed themselves on the Constitutional Amendment.” Wellman is correct; it was 75% to 25%, and we the people have spoken and we do not want to condone homosexual unions or domestic partnerships through our governments, or as socialist Jordan Palmer states, our institutions. This is about the arrogance of liberals who control these institutions and fly in the face of what the people want by doing what they want instead. This has to end, and many thanks to Representative Stan Lee for standing up. Let’s keep an eye on BR-102 and when it becomes a bill in January of 2007, let’s ask our Representatives to sign on.

Editor’s note:  Whenever government forces taxpayers to pay for something, and whenever government imposes political control over free markets, it requires people to support things that, in good conscience, they cannot support.  It is understandable that university employees and other people want to be able to get health insurance to cover other members of their households – whether it is a brother or sister, a child, a spouse, or a friend.  The answer is not to provide create special categories for politically powerful groups such as homosexuals, but rather to privatize health insurance but rather to get employers out of the health insurance business.  Universities and other employers should pay their employees and then let them buy any insurance they want on the open market, just as they buy their own auto insurance and homeowners’ insurance.  This would create a market for private insurance policies that would encourage entrepreneurship and small business growth as well as avoiding the problem of forcing taxpayers to support sodomy or other practices that are in conflict with their religious beliefs.
