“Gay Political Activists and Democratic Leaders are already Planning Post-Election Strategies."
NAPERVILLE, Ill., Oct. 20 /Christian Newswire/ -- Peter LaBarbera, President, Americans For Truth is available for comment on the following highlights from an article, "Democratic House a Gay Boon?" in the most recent (Oct. 20) edition of the homosexual newspaper Washington Blade:
-“Gay political activists and Democratic leaders are already planning post-election strategies and priorities for an expectedly bluer and more progressive [read: liberal] House of Representatives... The preliminary plans ... put a [transsexual]-inclusive Employment Non-Discrimination Act [ENDA] atop the wish list of gay rights supporters,” the Blade reports.
-“I think that everyone believes that [a transsexual-] inclusive ENDA is our top priority,” said Matt Foreman, executive director of the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force.
Other top priorities for homosexual activists: passing a “hate crimes” bill that is homosexual- and “transgender”-inclusive, and repealing the ban on open homosexuality in the military.
-“We’re accused of having a gay agenda ... but this is the time when we really need one,” says radical homosexual activist Wayne Besen.
-A Democratic House is key to advancing gay priorities, John Marble, spokesperson for the [homosexual group] National Stonewall Democrats, told the Blade. “If the Republicans are in control, it’s going to take much more work.”
-Homosexual U.S. Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) says that a Democratic House “would snub ‘anti-gay initiatives’ like the Marriage Protection Amendment, and give lawmakers new ability to concentrate on passing ENDA and overturning “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” the Blade reports.
-“Those are probably the two [ENDA and ‘Hate Crimes’] that we would be thinking about,” Frank told the Blade. “There would be a very good chance of movement there.”
-“If the Democrats retake the House, Frank could emerge as chair of the powerful and prestigious Financial Services Committee, which has jurisdiction over leading financial institutions, including banks,” the Blade reports.
-Besen said homosexuals will be disillusioned if they are “played and used” by the newly dominant Democrats; "gay" analyst Hastings Wyman agreed that the Democrats cannot afford to alienate their homosexual base: “The political heft of the gay community has been of great value to the Democrats,” he said, “in terms of money and in votes and in muscle.”
