Republican Ken Buck Says Being Gay Is A Choice, And Also Like Alcoholism

GREGORY: In a debate last month, you expressed your support for don’t ask, don’t tell, which we talked about with Mr. Gibbs. And you alluded to lifestyle choices. Do you that believe being gay is a choice?

BUCK: I do.

GREGORY: Based on what?

BUCK: Based on what?

GREGORY: Yeah, do you believe that?

BUCK: Well, I guess you can choose who your partner is.

GREGORY: You don’t think it’s something that’s determined at birth?

BUCK: I think that birth has an influence over it, like alcoholism and some other things, but I think that basically you have a choice.

Video of this after the jump.

Ken Buck certainly showed how much of a clueless moron he is.

 

[Tank]

In alot of cases people do make a choice

 

[Sunni Man]

Homosexuality is a Choice; a sick choice. but still a choice.

 

[Avatar4321]

Is this some sort of revelation?

I am astounded that people really admit they are so weak that they cant choose what they do.

 

[Revere]

Is it acceptable to act on all urges without control?

Its not what you do but what you are....

A homosexual can choose not to have sex, so can you or I

They don't have a choice of who they fall in love with. Nor should they have to

 

[Sunni Man]

They don't have a choice of who they fall in love with

True, homosexuality is alot like what confused animals do.

I had a dog once that fell in love with a friend of mine's leg.

The guy had to quit coming over to my house cause the dog wouldn't leave him alone.

Techinically he is partially right.

Being homosexual is not a choice...just like being an alcoholic is not a choice...just like being heterosexual is not a choice.

However, in the case of all three, one can choose to abstain. But, it doesn't change who they are inside.

Rinse and repeat.

For those who think it is a choice, what would it take to make that choice?

You right wingers are hilarious. I told you you're racist and homophobes and sexist and you are always calling me a liar. Then you prove you ARE those things. Hilarious!

Republican Party 90% white and mostly Christian.

Only 6% of scientists are Republican and only 9% call themselves "conservative".

Personally, I think that last two numbers are vastly over inflated.

Being homosexual is not a choice...just like being an alcoholic is not a choice.....

So homosexuality is a disease like alcoholism??

Thanks for admitting that homosexuality is an abnormal medical condition.

No more of a disease than your own heterosexuality.

Nobody restricts who you are allowed to love......why do you insist on doing it for others?

We can use the same analogy for you...

Who do you love? Is it OK for others to ridicule who you chose to love?

 

[Jack Fate]

it stands to reason that liberals would accept the idea that homosexuality is determined for you by birth. It takes away any responsibility for your actions and that is something near and dear to all iberals. If you don't believe that then you must be a stupid, racist, bigot, redneck, homophobic conservative.

It's a sign of "family values". To condemn others.

Oh, I'm not condemning anyone. I'm just letting them know they are dirty and diseased and will burn in hell for eternity. But those aren't MY words. I LOVE gay people.

Oh brother!

I love my dog, but I don't plan on humping the poor little thing.

What analogy??

True story; finally had to put the dog down.

And loved doing it, I'm sure.

 

[Jack Fate]

So perhaps one of you "enlightened" lefties can tell us when and who discovered the "gay gene"? I'm really interested.

 

[Sunni Man]

And loved doing it, I'm sure.

Nope, cause the vet charged $75
