Southern Poverty Law Center Declares Ben Carson a Right-Wing Extremist




The Southern Poverty Law Center, an anti-American organization, has publicly declared anyone who believes in traditional marriage is an extremist.  They placed renowned neurosurgeon and potential republican presidential candidate, Ben Carson, on their extremist watch list.


Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson rapidly ascended as a far-right political star after publicly scolding President Obama, whom he sat a few feet away from, at a National Prayer Breakfast in February 2013. Carson’s reproach of Obama for his health care and tax policies went viral, unleashing a flood of adulation from right-wing media and hate groups. Carson’s own story as an “up by the bootstraps” black man reared in poverty translated into an inspiring, magnetic narrative that captured media attention. Soon he was appearing as the keynoter at a rash of right-wing and hate group gatherings, linking gays with pedophiles, comparing the U.S. to Nazi Germany and endorsing biblical economic practices for 21st century America. A movement to draft Carson as a presidential candidate took off in 2014, raising more than $7 million by June, according to its website. Carson has coyly declined to say whether he would run as a Republican or on a third-party ticket, but media interviews suggest that he is increasingly willing to run on some ticket.

In His Own Words:
   
“Marriage is between a man and a woman. It’s a well-established pillar of society and no group, be they gays, be they NAMBLA [North American Man/Boy Association, a group advocating pedophilia], be they people who believe in bestiality—it doesn’t matter what they are, they don’t get to change the definition.”

—Interview on Fox News’ “Hannity,” March 26, 2013


The Southern Poverty Law Center considers Christians and Christianity a right-wing hate group.  Any organization that calls traditional marriage an extremist ideology shouldn’t be taken seriously.  These people are a disgrace.

Gay Marriage is Another Participation Trophy




Marriage was once promoted as an appropriate vehicle for procreation and family values.  In today’s world of political correctness, the idea of marriage and family has been overturned by unelected activist judges.  Gay marriage is our new standard for family values.  Marriage, as an institution, has been relegated to participation trophy status.


I remember playing sports when I was kid.  There was no such thing as a participation trophy back then.  Hard work and skill were rewarded.  Trophies and medals were an approbation of achievement.  We didn’t award mediocrity.  Had I received an award for participation, I would have thrown it in the trash.  To me it is an insult.  Likewise, so is gay marriage.


Today’s marriage is not about procreation and the concomitant responsibilities that entails.  Any yahoo can produce a child.  Why promote marriage as a family value when you have a village to take care of your urchins. 


Marriage, today, is all about tax breaks, pensions, and benefits.  It has been rendered a contractual obligation tied in a transient bow of love.  Who are we to deny equal rights to gay people? First of all, I didn’t know marriage was a right.  I thought standards had to be met.  That isn’t true anymore.


I wonder what the next fabricated right some special interest group will manufacture.  Whatever it is, I’m sure a liberal judge already has a participation trophy ready to hand out.

Traditional Marriage is More Than a Tax Break




The gay and lesbian community is desperate to destroy traditional values for their own selfish purposes.  Marriage is more than about tax breaks.  The speaker at this event lays it out. You have to watch to the very end when he hits his stride.

Charlotte Observer Bemoans Passage of Traditional Marriage Amendment

Yesterday, the citizens of North Carolina joined thirty other states in amending its constitution, reaffirming traditional marriage. For those who are traditionally impaired, marriage means a union between one man and one woman.

Of course, the so-called Progressives are up in arms over this definitive alteration to our Constitution. They believe this act was unnecessary. We already have a law that prohibits same sex marriage. So what is the big deal?

Well leave it to the libtards at the Charlotte Observer to outline all sorts of preposterous scenarios. Here is one of them:

And judges might refuse to issue domestic violence protection orders in cases involving unmarried couples and throw out orders already issued. Under this amendment, North Carolina doesn’t appear to recognize them as having legally-defined personal relationships.

So the editors at the Charlotte Observer would have us believe that Amendment One prohibits restraining orders on non-married persons? Get real morons! Here is another gem from the Disturber:

Duke University professor Mike Munger told the Observer editorial board Tuesday that domestic partner benefits “clearly are in jeopardy.” Unmarried couples who get domestic partner insurance benefits from local governments could lose them. “It’s not clear it’s legal” under the amendment for the governments to offer them, Munger said. Chapel Hill, Durham, Greensboro, and Mecklenburg and Orange counties now provide health care benefits to domestic partners and their children.


Again this is quite simple, get married if you want benefits. Why should the taxpayers subsidize a public employee’s hedonistic lifestyle? And do they seriously believe children of an employee are going to be denied health care benefits? That is an absolutely fatuous statement.

Here is another example of perverse Progressive logic.

Proponents like Rep. Paul Stam, who has been the top legislative cheerleader for the amendment, have said the amendment isn’t likely to have those impacts. But in truth, they don’t know. That’s why many legal scholars expect the courts will adjudicate the matter. Some say the amendment itself is unconstitutional and is just inviting a federal lawsuit challenging its validity.

We hope there is a challenge to this misguided amendment. It was unnecessary. N.C. law has banned same-sex marriages since 1996. This change unwisely writes discrimination into the state constitution.


So if the constitutional amendment is prejudicial and discriminatory, wouldn’t logic render the preceding law the same? According to the Disturber, in their twisted way, the law against same sex marriage is a violation of gay and lesbians civil rights, and should have been challenged in a federal court. But somehow that conclusion didn’t make it into their commentary.

The interlopers at the Charlotte Observer are having a hard time with the poll results. Here is their partying shot at people who value traditional American values:

The state is on the wrong side of history on this matter. Most Americans are increasingly rejecting this type of prejudice against gays and lesbians. A new Gallup poll showed 50 percent of Americans believe same sex marriages should be recognized as legal, while 48 percent say such marriages should not be legal.

Unfortunately, for the commie/hedonist at the Charlotte Observer – 61% of North Carolinians overwhelmingly voted for Amendment One. And every state that has proposed a constitutional amendment upholding traditional marriage has passed it.

Maybe, the editors at the Disturber would feel more at home – let’s say – in San Francisco. Just saying.
