Seething Mom

I seethe NOT because my son is gay. I seethe because he lives in a country in which some elected officials find it politically advantageous to deny him dignity, basic rights, and protections. I seethe because there are people who preach hatred and discrimination towards gays yet claim to be "good" and "loving" Christians. I seethe because there are groups who claim to be "advocates" for the family but who work to do great harm to any family that doesn’t fit their narrow template for “normal”.

Despair

In his very own words, from his very own book, "A Charge To Keep”:

"I don't believe my role is to replace the verdict of a jury with my own," - George W. Bush on why he signed death warrants for 152 inmates as governor of Texas.

This is a man who has absolutely no conscience. Absolutely no morality. And absolutely no Christian values. And those that defend him at this point are just as despicable.

How many more nails in the coffin do we need before we can bury this shameful chapter of our history? The stench from the rot is unbearable.

Not very tolerant words there. Actually they are down right hateful. It can't be pleasant to harbor so much hate and anger because of a son's sexual attractions, can it? You need to find a better, less hate filled seething way, you really do.; 7/03/2007 9:50 AM
