In what sense of America "going down", Mr. Buttars? Most gays I know would probably say that they are the greatest force supporting America "going down" than ever before, not the greatest threat. It's a fantastic subject, but do we really need to discuss in the state legislature who wants America "going down"?
Anyways, this guy is a confused nutjob, spouting off about gays, muslims, blacks, and anyone that isn't just like himself. America has lots of major problems to be handled right now (did he miss the unemployment rates, Middle East military occupation, threat of terrorism, financial crisis) and to bring up this nonsense is outrageous and irresponsible. He deserves public scorn, humiliation and condemnation.
The gay friends at our wedding danced and celebrated with us, my gay neighbors have been wonderful people and supportive. They helped build the white picket fence around our backyard in a big way -- placing the thirty-some six foot 4x4 posts three feet deep into the ground. "Meanest buggers"? Anything goes? No. Very American indeed.
Yes, gays have morals that can be discussed, catalogued, and found to be more wholesome than anything this guy maintains. But why not leave these people to their own lives?
Get your groove on, Mr Buttars.

ReplyDeleteChris Buttars should resign.
Once the whole enchilada becomes available for public consumption, the country is gonna be sickened by his camera drunk performance.
The documentary is coming out in July.
It's one thing if Chris were to appear in that film in the role of a *former* Utah senator.
It's another thing entirely if the audience were to be treated to the spectacle of a sitting state senator spewing this bile.
The choice of reactions is up to the Utah legislature.
July's audience will either think "good for Utah for cutting this crank loose" or they'll think "only in Utah can a jerk like this keep his job."
It's one or the other.
And if it's the latter, it's not like Chris is going to keep his job after July anyway.
Show a little humility and bow out now, or suffer utter humiliation later.
It's up to you, Chris.
