Video: Tony Perkins warns against the FAIR Education Act

August 28, 2011

By Adam Bink

Of course, the same Tony Perkins who editorialized against It Gets Better videos in the Washington Post (really), and who doesn’t exactly have a positive track record on what’s best for kids.

Piss you off too?

Spread the word.

Fight back.

    Here's an article about Perkins that hits the nail on head with giving an accurate description of him:

    Subsequent other articles feeding off this site hit the nail on the head with respect to Gov. Perry. This man is a nut-case. I can't imagine he'll gain much traction after the great swath of Americans come to truly know his persuasions, bigotry and scary associations with some of the most radical christian fundamentalists we have. He reminds me of the anti-christ of "The Omen" movies; he even looks demonic in his eyes. Yikes!

    What does that mean? "Confronting signature-gatherers"

    Poor professional bigots, they have lived by the sword, and now they will die by the sword.

    What I find more interesting is that they couldn't find ANY OTHER family that was as upset as the Parkers or Wirthlins got, and that was FIVE YEARS AGO!

    You an put lipstick on the pig, but it's still a pig.

    I'm not sure I can even watch the video.

    The whole topic's just so hateful and sad and pathetic.

    Maybe I can stomach it tomorrow at work, in the cold light od day with people around.

    I'm wondering the same thing.
    Head out to a Target or WalMart and confront the haters at the card table out front?

    I can't watch any of those guys anymore. They used to anger me, but now it's just painful.

    I'm guessing my comment, which is "pending approval" will never see the light of day. Thumbs down to Tony Perkins!
