My bombard for Thursday.

From 365Gay.com on Wednesday, September 8, by Ray Hunt, blogger, 365gay.com:

• Gays Worse Than Terrorists. Who remembers Oklahoma State Rep Sally Kern? Well if you need a refresher, in 2008 she was recorded (without her knowledge) giving a rabidly anti-gay speech.  Among the choice quotes were: “Not everybody’s lifestyle is equal, like not all religions are equal,” and “I honestly think it’s (gays) the biggest threat our nation has, even more so than terrorism or Islam.”Them’s fightin’ words.

Well Ms. Sally wants to clear up the record: “Here in America we’ve had what, three known real big terrorist attacks on our nation.  But every day our young people are in a sense bombarded with the message that homosexuality is normal and natural.” Gays = Terrorists, before. Gays = Terrorists, after.

Well I guess you cleared that up.

I had forgotten about Sally, perhaps thinking that her 15 seconds of fame were so over.  I had to Google her to refresh my mind, and found this site, Party of Jesus, where Sally’s own words from February 2009 are there to haunt her forever (nothing ever goes away on the internet), if she’s intelligent enough to use Google.  Ray Hunt’s blog relies on an entry at Towle Road last week. you can watch the video.

Ex-Gay Watch has more background on Kern, including the shocking revelation that “gays are infiltrating city councils.”  Geez, what will they think of next? Even more entertaining is the site http://sallykern.com.  She apparently wasn’t quick enough to buy her own name’s URLs to prevent this.  Oh well.  And over two years ago Queerty uncovered interesting stuff that alleges Kern has a (disowned) gay son named Jesse. Shades of Pete Knight all over again!

Kern appears to be a bumbling but highly religious legislator.  It was her proposal last January to amend Oklahoma’s divorce laws to restrict divorce, or as Yahoo news put it, “Sally Kern divorce law forces big religion on Oklahomans.”  I don’t think this ever passed , but her legislation “would make divorce illegal under these conditions:

• There are living minor children of the marriage
• The parties have been married 10 years or longer
• Either party files a written objection to the granting of a divorce

Sally Kern has been vocal about her belief that divorce is one of the issues causing problems in America. She also blames Obama and gays.” Kern may try to outdo Palin with rhetoric intended to offend virtually every segment of society.  Coming at the same time as that nut job in Gainsville, Florida who wants to burn the Koran and pick a fight which is not his to pick—all apparently just to take control of his 15 seconds of fame and probably pick up some extra cash contributions to keep his tiny church afloat— it is more obvious what kind of folks are causing problems in America.So if you are a minor and you’re reading this, I guess you have been “bombarded” again with the “gay agenda!”
