Tony Perkins: Musicals are nothing but ‘homosexual propaganda’

Tony Perkins, the president of the ever-sinister Family Research Council, is very angry at US Ambassador Samantha Power for taking some of her colleagues to see a production of the lesbian-themed Fun Home, a Tony-winning Broadway musical.
“The State Department already has an official LGBT envoy — it doesn’t need two! Tell that to Samantha Power, the U.S. Ambassador to the U.N., who is determined to join the administration’s goodwill tour for homosexuality. Like Secretary John Kerry, who seems oblivious to any problem not preceded by the letters L-G-B-T, Power is adding to the president’s embarrassing diplomatic legacy by trying to export Obama’s sexual extremism to a world preoccupied by far more important issues.

On Tuesday, Power, who has the ear of some of the international community’s most important leaders, decided to spend her influence persuading them on the need to celebrate homosexuality. This week, she hosted 15 U.N. Ambassadors at a gay Broadway musical called ‘Fun Home. Representatives from Russia, Namibia, and other more culturally conservative countries sat through New York’s latest sexual propaganda, followed by a personal thank you from Power herself. “Thank you,” she told the cast, ‘for bringing all of this home in a way that resolutions and statements never can.’”(emphasis added)

The right’s affinity for Russia is not based entirely on shady finance and helpful propaganda.
