The Republican Party had the entire United States of America from whom to chose their nominee for the US Senate seat in Illinois. Demonstrating quite clearly the kind of party they are, they chose Alan Keyes. From Maryland.
On Tuesday, Keyes called the “Vice-President’s” lesbian daughter Mary Cheney, a “selfish hedonist” apparently solely because of her sexual identity.
He did both that, and took a swipe at married couples who either can’t, or choose not to have children all in one fell Republican swoop.
Said Mr. Keyes in a satellite radio interview this week:
Asked whether that meant Mary Cheney was “a selfish hedonist,” Keyes said: “That goes by definition. Of course she is.”
So there ya go. You folks in the “married state” out there who have no children, are apparently “selfish hedonists” along with lesbian Mary Cheney. You, like those homosexuals who’d like to simply be recognized as a legitimate American family seem to have an “improper basis” for your marriage according to your party’s national pick for the U.S. Senate.

Guys,
lets be clear about Mr. Keyes and the Illinois Republican Party: he was BEGGED to run on the ticket here.
Mary Cheney is going to join Ghandi and the jews in hell, right Paul?

Don’t forget JFK, Marilyn Monroe, Elvis, and the Kerry campaign. (not there yet but loading up the hand basket as we speak)
