Liberty Counsel: DADT Keeps ‘Moral Perverts’ Out Of The Armed Services
This is all they have left:
Last week, Brian noted how Religious Right leaders have seized upon reports that Wikileaks-leaker Bradly Manning is gay in order to argue for the continuing need to enforce Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.
The topic came up in the Liberty Counsel’s “Faith and Freedom Radio” program today as Mat Staver and Matt Barber discussed the issue and cited a report from the 1950s claiming that gays were “moral perverts” and therefore a national security risk
Video, transcript and more at the link. Also:
.I guess it is worth pointing out that Staver is completely misrepresenting the 2001 “The Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory” by suggesting that it supported the findings of the reports from the 1950s when it did the exact opposite
Now that the military’s recommendations and Pentagon report are in— now that there’s no other good even remotely plausible reason to keep gay people from serving — expect to see more of this: that old time Homophobia just letting fly.
