Alan Keyes is such an idiot
Found at
Drudge Report (God help me):
Alan Keyes, the Republican candidate for a vacant U.S. Senate seat in Illinois, said Tuesday that Vice President Dick Cheney's daughter Mary is a "selfish hedonist" because she is a lesbian.
His comments came during an interview with SIRIUS satellite radio.
Keyes said: "The essence of ... family life remains procreation. If we embrace homosexuality as a proper basis for marriage, we are saying that it's possible to have a marriage state that in principal excludes procreation and is based simply on the premise of selfish hedonism."
Asked whether that meant Mary Cheney "is a selfish hedonist," Keyes said: "That goes by definition. Of course she is."
Aside from the totally unnecessary low blow at Mary Cheney; does Mr. Keyes mean to imply that infertile people shouldn't be allowed to get married either, as they are not able to procreate?
Damn you! You selfish hedonistic infertiles!
(Frinklin pointed out that people beyond child-bearing age would also be exempt from marriage--selfish hedonistic old people!)

Selfish, hedonistic old people? I certainly hope to be one someday.

Keyes has really gone 'round the bend. More accurately, he's driven all the way around the mountain is coming 'round for a second pass at the bend.

People with 50-year-old attitudes towards homosexuals drive me mad. As if people are going to become extinct because homosexuals marry. The world's already overpopulated - what the hell are these old-fashioned idiots worried about?

Is it possible that Alan Keyes will be the first major-party candidate in a prominent race to go zero votes? Is he actively trying to alienate everyone now? I don't understand him.

I would totally not vote for him if I lived in Illinois. Can a person get negative votes?

Hmmm... I guess selfish hedonists would also have to include those with VOLUNTARY infertility (temporary or permanent birth control - pills, condoms, vasectomies, tubal ligations...) and hey! Come to think of it, our birth rate isn't up to par with, say, India! That's it, I'm moving to Illinois to campaign for Keyes. Population boom or bust! (I bet the Vatican likes him too, no?)
