"Call off your dogs?" Seriously? The last sentence I wrote was "What are your thoughts?" I didn't say call your congressman. I didn't offer a petition. I offered my opinion and asked for yours. Thanks for taking the time to share it with us.

Why do conservatives always call something "propaganda" when they don't want to accept facts?

As lovely as it would be to stick our heads in the sand and pretend people like Bryan Fischer don't exist, they do. Ignoring them does not make them go away nor does it give them less credibility. The simple fact is Fischer works for the AFA wich has a $14 million annual budget, 180 radio stations across 40 states and reaches millions of people daily. Trust me, my bringing to light his crazy beliefs neither emboldens him nor gives him credibility. What it does is expose his ignorance and hate and gets more people on the right side of the argument.

I understand your point but this is perfectly legitimate. Scarborough did not mention what his tweet was related to, so I took an educated guess, given his timeline and show this AM. But the fact remains that the Church has injected itself into politics and marriage equality is an excellent example, especially given the Prop 8 decision about to come down. Everything is interrelated.

We'll be sure to contact you when we need a weatherman to tell us it's about to snow even though the thermometer says 70 degrees.

Facts are funny things -- just because you "feel" they're wrong, doesn't make them wrong.

Pity that the GOP and Tea Party are living under the mistaken idea that their feelings supercede facts.

"people with common sense know that homosexuality is disordered," you say.
In little more than a day you've got 44 people who down voted your ignorance, hatred, and bigotry. I'm pretty sure you're mistaken.

Or, unless you're a woman with an unborn baby who gets shot with a gun. Which is what happens far too often, all the time. But only in America. In the UK, in France, it happens, like, almost never. But yeah, guns are the SOLUTION. Right...

Apparently you didn't have a chance to read my comment above. We will continue to report on Bryan Fischer until he recants all his anti-gay bigotry. Nothing will change that.

Alex, respectfully, I'm afraid you don't grasp the magnitude of this. First, these people don't go away if you ignore them. Bryan Fischer is not some lone wolf. He is a highly-paid spokesperson for the AFA, a group that has a direct line into the RNC, a group with a budget of tens of millions of dollars, a group with 180+ radio stations in 40 states that daily reach millions of people.

Fischer speaks at CPAC. He can pick up the phone and talk to any religious or political leader he wants to. They only go away when their lies are exposed. And that's why we do this.

So, how do you account for this from The Atlantic (above): "Karen Handel, a former gubernatorial candidate from Georgia who is staunchly anti-abortion and who has said that since she is ‘pro-life, I do not support the mission of Planned Parenthood.’"
