The Christian Right was in a uproar from the moment Grenell was appointed. He was excluded from meeting on the subject of his expertise.
Oh baloney. I'm Christian and I'm on the right and I have no problem with him being gay. Most of my family, collegues, friends, and associates are Christian, probably the majority are on the right, and none of them have any problem with him being gay.
I do not believe for a minute that one or two radical rightwing groups were able to have enough influence in this to merit the slightest bit of concern from anybody.
But the fact that the Washington Post and almost all other leftwing media and people like you on message boards and whatever other people are speaking for the left immediately highlighted the point that he was GAY. And that the right wouldn't stand for a GAY person. That Romney was weak allowing a GAY person to resign. Yadda yadda.
Would there have been any interest whatsoever in a person leaving the Romney camp if he had not been GAY?
The only significant bunch of people giving this any, most especially intense attention are those on the Left who see people as GAY and not just people.
So, he's a liar? He resigned, you're saying he lied about why?
Okay, I guess I should go remove my thanks from your earlier post that I thought made good sense. I obviously completely misinterpreted it.
So who's lying? The GAY guy who didn't say that the Christian right was in an uproar? Or me who has certainly seen no objections from any Chrsitians or Christian groups that I know? Or PJ here who said it was? (Though I don't consider a wrong perspective or notion or brain washing to be lying.)
