(OKLAHOMA CITY)  To commemorate National Coming Out Day on Saturday, October 11, 2008, I am exercising my gay genetic heritage and declaring Rep. Sally Kern of Oklahoma an honorary gay/lesbian person in recognition of the fine work she has done to keep our community's issues in the forefront of media attention, both here in Oklahoma and nationwide.

In a country turned upside down by religious and financial turmoil I feel that it is important to keep our American values straight and forthright.  Her latest pronouncements have illustrated the debt our gay brothers and sisters owe to her.   http://tinyurl.com/3qenfk and  http://tinyurl.com/4jjsdz

RESOLUTION

Whereas:  Mrs. Kern has defended the 2nd Amendment right to bear arms by exercising civil disobedience in carrying a gun twice into the State Capitol in Oklahoma City  http://tinyurl.com/5vfh7v

Whereas:  Mrs. Kern has shown us how to defend the 1st Amendment by her attempt to remove gay-supportive books from public libraries http://newsok.com/article/2934605

Whereas:  Mrs. Kern has demonstrated her profound patriotism by diverting the public's attention away from terrorism and towards gay/lesbian equality  http://tinyurl.com/6ggxu6

Whereas:  Mrs. Kern has helped populate our ranks with new members  http://tinyurl.com/34gg3d

Whereas:  Mrs. Kern has directed media attention towards the inequalities of living openly as a gay man or woman in the USA  http://tinyurl.com/4gy4yb

Whereas:  Mrs. Kern has helped educate parents and legislators about gays and lesbians with her P-FLAG interview  http://tinyurl.com/484bax

Be it resolved that:  Mrs Sally Kern, Republican legislator in House District 84, in the State of Oklahoma, be recognized as an honorary gay/lesbian person for the rest of her God-given natural life.

Who hates gays

This is why Rome fell and we want the same for America ? Go marry your dog... I don't care just don't ask otther to get involved ... gay rights means anything goes sex in public and same rights as a man and woman. We don't hate gays we just want to stop thinking America is against them... and quit with the equal rights...... if it was so important George washington and John Adams would have included you inn the Constituition quit trying to re-write history.......

You say "we don't hate Gays" and "just quit with the equal rights" in the same sentence.  If you don't hate us, why don't you want us toe have equal rights?

You claim that if equal rights for Gays was so important, it would have been included in the Constitution.  The abolition of slavery and women's right to vote weren't in the Constitution either.  But both are pretty important issues and had to be added to the Constitution.

The Roman Empire did not fall because of its tolerance of Gays.  The Emperor Constantine I made Christianity the official state religion of the Roman Empire in 376 A.D. and tolerance of Gays ended.  The Roman Empire did not fall until 476 A.D., after Christianity had been the sate religion for 171 years, when a barbarian invader deposed the last Roman Emperor and informed the surviving eastern half of the Roman Empire in Constantinople that there was no emperor in the west.

You say you don't care what we do.  But something motivated you to write a comment containing nearly ever stereotyped argument against Gays and Lesbians around.  If my having sex with another man repels you, the solution for you is simple.  Simply don't have sex with other men.  I promise you won't feel a thing when I do.  And stop writing these hate filled comments.
