Obama names Pope-basher to White House Faith advisory council (Harry Knox)

Posted Tue, Apr 7, 2009 at 5:58 pm

Barack Obama has named Harry Knox of the Human Rights Campaign to the White House's Advisory Council on Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships. From this:

[L]ast month, [Knox] described Pope Benedict XVI and certain Catholic bishops as “discredited leaders” because of their opposition to same-sex marriage... Knox also criticized the Catholic Knights of Columbus as being “foot soldiers of a discredited army of oppression” because of the Knights’ support of Proposition 8. The latter was a ballot initiative that amended California’s state constitution to define marriage as being between a man and a woman, and passed in November 2008... Knox told CNSNews.com that he “absolutely” stands by his criticism of the pope.

No mention of the Pope, and completely off-topic again Fred. Stop eating gun powder you nut. It's rotting your brain. You hurt our cause with your incessant repetitive racist rantings. Will it ever end? I have been waiting 5 years for you to shut up. Have some decency and manners, please. Shut the fuck up. We get your message. It has been said thousands of times before, several times each day, for five years. Enough already.

_...because of their opposition to same-sex marriage...support of Proposition 8._ That's pretty funny. Is this guy serious? He should apply for a job at the San Francisco Chronicle, the all-gay-marriage-all-the-time newspaper (or maybe not, as it will probably fold this year -- no connection there I'm sure). Of course this guy would never be called an extremist -- it's people who don't think two men ought to be able to 'marry' each other and have that seen as more or less equivalent to a traditional marriage who are the extremists and 'oppressors'. It's this complete moral inversion that gets under my skin. Of course this guy Knox himself is gay. I didn't watch it, but apparently here in this video [1] he says homosexuality is 'a gift from God'. _by the way obama hate race wife hates the name white house, she calls it the people house._ I have not heard or seen that, but I would not be surprised.
