Well this is getting fun. The religious right is, predictably, freaking out that Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice last week swore in the new AIDS Czar and referred to his partner's mother as his "mother in law." Naturally, America's hate groups swung into action in order to bash Rice and gays.
First the gay-bashing from the religious right hate group the Family Research Council:
"We have to face the fact that putting a homosexual in charge of AIDS policy is a bit like putting the fox in charge of the henhouse."
Gee, that's funny. Bashing a fag and people with AIDS in the same breath - can the n-word jokes be far behind?
As for Condi Rice, the article goes on to point out that the hate groups were profoundly offended that she treated the gay man with respect, and they were offended, apparently, that gay people were permitted to touch Bibles. (Which is ironic, because I'm offended that religious right pseudo-Christians are allowed to touch Bibles.)
In any case, the religious right is finally figuring out that gay Republicans are in the highest positions of power in the GOP. Duh.
