Homo-Fascist
Watch—Special Edition
Report for June
18, 2004
Wisconsin State Assembly
Speaker John Gard has incurred the wrath of New Sodom, and her suburbs, by
taking a position against so-called same-sex marriage. In a speech at the
Republican convention in La Crosse last month, Gard stated that
"there are a lot of people out there who think that people should be
able to marry whoever they want, or whatever they want." Obviously,
Rep. Gard used a bit of hyperbole when he said there are "a lot of
people . . . who think that people should be able to marry . . . whatever
they want." But he did not lie, and he was right to drive the point
of his argument home in such a way. There are people involved in
bestiality who would marry an animal if it were allowed. Gard was making a
point to give strength to his argument. Marriage has an immutable
definition, even though some are clamoring for the state to create a
fantasy called "same-sex marriage." Depravity begets depravity
just as lawlessness begets lawlessness. When the boundaries of eternal
right and wrong are violated, what was unthinkable yesterday is accepted
today and mainstreamed tomorrow.
Of course, the homo-fascists
are calling for Rep. Gard's head on a platter, even as they propagandize
on behalf of their own "reality." Here we provide an example of
their strategy. According to the wildly pro-sodomite, Madison newspaper,
the Capital Times, Rep. Gard is wasting time pushing a state
constitutional amendment which the people of Wisconsin do not want.
Actually, almost 70% of the people of Wisconsin do want it, but perhaps
they are not real people but only homophobic humanoids with no brains or
souls. Because John Gard does not want the state to confer the title of
marriage, with all that goes with it, to sodomite couplings, the Capital
Times announces to the world that "bigot" Gard's beliefs are
"foul," "wrongheaded," "ranting,"
"irrational," and that ALL Wisconsinites are embarrassed by him
-- all Wisconsinites. Because in his speech he did not sing Sodom's song,
or at least hum along with it, the Cap Times pronounces John Gard to be a
senseless, cruel man peddling ignorant bigotries. The writer of the
editorial, sure to be lauded by Sodom's citizens, finds it shocking that
Gard did not fall at the feet of the offended promoters of perversion and
beg for mercy for uttering the word whatever. Clearly, America is still
too free, comrades!
John Gard is also under fire
from the unnatural Republicans, those who insist an individual has the
absolute right to commit any sexual perversion which his little,
unregenerate heart desires in the privacy of his cabin and still not be
"discriminated" against. James McFarland, the political director
of the Wisconsin branch of the sodomite Log Cabin Republicans, has posited
that John Gard's statement was "MORALLY WRONG"! Think about that
for awhile. It is clear that we have come to a, shall we say, shocking,
irrational time when people who commit foul, senseless, wrongheaded,
embarrassing sexual acts have the audacity to claim not only the moral
highground but also the approval of "all Wisconsinites." The
Capital Times article below is an example of homo-fascism in full flower.
The philosophy has come to fruition; the philosophes lack only the force
of the government to crush all those who oppose them. I encourage all who
read this message to contact John Gard (rep.gard@legis.state.wi.us)
and urge him not to give in to the shrill demands of Sodom's brownshirts.
I urge all Christians to stand up to those brownshirted bullies; but do it
only "by the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of
righteousness on the right hand and on the left" (2 Corinthians 6:7).

Editorial: John Gard's foul
words
An editorial

Assembly Speaker John Gard,
R-Peshtigo, has been roundly criticized for refusing to allow the
Legislature to address fundamental economic, education and health care
issues during the current session. Instead, Gard guided it repeatedly into
debates about social policy that had never been demanded or encouraged by
the people of Wisconsin.
It was especially troubling that
Gard was willing to devote days to debating a wrongheaded proposal to
discriminate against gays and lesbians.
It didn't make sense. Why would
Gard push an amendment to the state constitution designed to ban same-sex
couples from marrying when state law already bars such unions? Why would
he waste so much time on needless cruelty when there was
real work to be
done?
Now the answer is beginning to
emerge.
Gard has come out of the closet
as a bigot.
At the state Republican
convention last month, Gard devoted much of his speech to a ranting
defense of the proposed amendment to define marriage as between a man and
a woman. He begged delegates to help him ensure that the discriminatory
amendment was added to the constitution because, he said, "there are
a lot of people out there who think that people should be able to marry
whoever they want, or whatever they want."
Gard's irrational comment was
quickly countered by responsible Republicans, including James McFarland, a
longtime party activist who was a delegate to the convention. McFarland,
the political director of the Log Cabin Republicans of Wisconsin, a group
that represents gays and lesbians in the party of Lincoln, wrote a letter
to Gard complaining about his language.
"We will give you the
benefit of the doubt and assume the phrase 'whatever they want' was not
intended to imply that lesbians and gays, who are the ones seeking the
right to marry, are less than human," the letter explained.
"Therefore, the only conclusion we can draw is that you were
referring to people 'marrying' animals."
The letter asked that Gard
retract his statement and suggested that "we believe that you and
your Assembly Republican colleagues should consider whether you should
continue to remain as speaker of the Assembly ... Your statement was not
only morally wrong, but also makes you a liability for the Republican
Party."
No one expected Gard to exit as
speaker. But his response was still a shocker.
Gard argued that he was merely
trying to make the point that "if the institution of marriage is
merely a semantic or legal construct subject to a definition-du-jour
relativism, then the variety of definitions one could pursue for it is
virtually limitless."
Far from a retraction or an
apology, Gard returned to the same suggestion he made in his speech.
And, in so doing, he confirmed
McFarland's point.
Former Gov. Tommy Thompson went
out of his way to make gays and lesbians feel welcome within the "big
tent" of his Republican Party. He avoided hot-button social issues,
choosing instead to deal with economics, education and other big-ticket
items.
Even Wisconsinites who disagreed
with Thompson's economic conservatism acknowledged that he was a moderate
- even a liberal - when it came to forging a Republican message that
eschewed the petty bigotries that Gard is now
peddling.
John Gard is trying to steer the
GOP away from the course Thompson set. That's bad for the party, and for
Wisconsin. McFarland and the Log Cabin Republicans are right. Gard has
become a liability. But that liability is not merely an image problem for
the GOP. Of course, Republicans should be embarrassed by Gard's recent
statements. But, by virtue of the fact that he serves as Assembly speaker,
Gard is, as well, an embarrassment to all
Wisconsinites.
