GOP Gay Fever
From Huffington Post

Singer/songwriter Paul Hipp releases a satirical ode to the GOP’s attempts to drive a wedge between voters on the issue of gay rights.

Click here to hear the song.


The Huffington Post:

With elections round the corner
When the voters start to care
About the mess we have created
We give you issues that aren’t even there

We give you Homosexual marriage
Gonna wreck your family’s life
Gay men want your husbands
Lesbians will steal your wife

Advertisement

Lies lit up the daytime
Till bombs lit up the night
Bin Laden sleeps in a cave somewhere
While in Iraq our soldiers die and fight

We give you Homosexual marriage
Gonna wreck your family’s life
Gay men want your husbands
Lesbians will steal your wife

Billy Frist and Arlen Spector
Know the votes are just not there
Orrin Hatch said “Go tell all of your wives”
In his sacred Mormon underwear

Gas will be four bucks a gallon
Katrina’s wrath is still unfixed
The deficit is at an all-time high
While Republicans play politics

They give us Homosexual marriage
Gonna wreck your family’s life
Gay men want your husbands
Lesbians will steal your wife

With scandal all around us
Indictments everywhere you look
We ask ourselves what would Jesus do?
He’d said “Hey! Look out, what¹s that over there”

It must be Homosexual marriage
Gonna wreck your family’s life
Gay men want your husbands
Lesbians will steal your wife

Just remember there’s a price paid
For each inflammatory thing you say
Mathew Sheppard’s safe in heaven dead
How many other souls will have to pay

You give them Homosexual marriage
It won’t affect your family’s life
Gay men don’t want your husband
Lesbians won’t steal your wife

Yes, Hatch IS a hotty! Too bad he’s so uptight. Loved the song—message was very much to the point!

REFULGENT EPICENE RESPONDS TO CHRISTIANISM
.
The gorgeous and sexy gay man smiles at Jerry Falwell (on Larry King perhaps?) and says:

“Darling, Reverend, we honestly appreciate that you Christianists at least allow us to do “what we do” in the privacy of our homes. Likewise in the spirit of of turn-about is fair play, no pun intended, we are just tickled to have you do “what you do” in the sanctity of your churches.

It’s obvious but bears constant repeating.  Those who rant and rave about gays are most likely troubled with gay tendencies themselves.  It’s called Pharisaism.

Here in Utah we are so proud of our own Elder Hatch.  What a hotty!
