The U.S. is degenerating fast, the last straw would be a Lesbian president. Maybe it is time a party of "normal people only" took to the hustings and campaigned for a return to normality. This would apply to many western countries including Australia whose parliament is riddled with homosexuals both male and female - What an utterly decadent world we live in today!

Senators Clinton, Obama, say “Homosexuality is Moral”

By Gudrun Schultz

WASHINGTON, D.C., March 16, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – U.S. Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama entered the media furor yesterday over comments General Peter Pace, Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, made against homosexuality last week, with both issuing statements saying, “I do not think homosexuality is immoral.”

Clinton and Obama made the statements after a homosexual activist group attacked “Democratic candidates” for failing to oppose General Pace’s comments that he believes homosexuality to be “immoral.” The general told the Chicago Tribune Monday, “I believe homosexual acts between two individuals are immoral and that we should not condone immoral acts.”

“Well, I’ve heard from a number of my friends, and I’ve certainly clarified with them any misunderstanding that anyone had, because I disagree with General Pace completely,” Sen. Clinton told Bloomberg News. “I do not think homosexuality is immoral.”

That led to an attack from homosexual activist Jo Wyrick, executive director of the National Stonewall Democrats, "We expect Democratic candidates and elected officials to reaffirm those same values, to speak up when families or individuals are scapegoated or maligned for political gain, and to proactively argue the benefits of treating all Americans equally under the law without regard to their sexual orientation or gender identity," Wyrick warned.

Meanwhile, Senator Sam Brownback released a letter March 14 in support of General Peter Pace, to be circulated among his Senate colleagues for signatures. The letter states the signatories’ support for General Pace against criticism from media and activist groups, Christian Newswire reported March 14.

“[W]e we applaud General Pace for maintaining a personal commitment to moral principles. He has demonstrated great leadership during a very difficult time and he continues to do so today.,” the letter states.

“[W]e should not expect someone as qualified, accomplished and articulate as General Pace to lack personal views on important moral issues. In fact, we should expect that anyone entrusted with such great responsibility will have strong moral views. We should be concerned if they do not have strong convictions on key issues.”

“The question is whether personal moral beliefs should disqualify an individual from positions of leadership in the U.S. military? We think not. General Pace's recent remarks do not deserve the criticism they have received.”
