And straight Conservatives can’t? Dan Savage, known for his efforts in the LGBT anti-bullying industry, has no problem bullying those he disagrees with. However, his true hate shown brightly when “other gays” got a bit “uppity” from his perspective; from NewsBusters (emphasis mine):
The blogosphere is abuzz today after anti-conservative bully and gay activist Dan Savage tweeted, “The GOP’s house faggots grab their ankles right on cue…Pathetic” in response to GOProud’s endorsement of Mitt Romney in the 2012 election.
The screen cap from Twitchy (and Bully Dan Savage hasn’t yanked it from his own Twitter feed either):
Double standards. This is definitely an example of that phrase “Conservatives think Liberals are just wrong but Liberals think Conservatives are eevviillll”. And when you are evil, so goes Progressive thinking, you are sub-human and thus, can be called anything with impunity, for you don’t matter. GREAT example, Dan Man, for all those LGBT youngsters you try to protect with your It Gets Better anti-bullying group. You’ve just shown everyone you’re a fraud at worst or posses a serious lack of consistency (to the kindest I can be). This is akin to black Liberals calling black Conservatives “house n*****s” (astericked out, not to stay Politically Correct, but Search Engine Correct) or at best “Uncle Tom”. Or the Nags from N.O.W denigrating Conservative ladies like Laura Bush, Ann Coulter, or Sarah Palin. Or just angry (or lately, is that losers) Progressives call TEA Party supporters that sexual innuendo. So, Dan Savage feels just dandy letting lose against other homosexuals simply because of political and philosophical difference. Splendid!
What does this show? It’s certainly not about civility. It shows that the Left believes that it can say anything they want without impunity from their fellow travelers. Remember, Dan Savage is supposed to be The Anti-Bully – yet is proud of the bullying he has done to Rick Santorum for his beliefs and seemingly unable to keep his own hate in check when talking about Christians (imagine, a grown man, a Leader in the Anti-Bullying industry doing exactly that to high school kids what he is telling everyone else not to do). Once again, we see the lack of consistency from what Leftists say, and then what they actually do.
The truth is plain – it is only about trying to get a political edge. No, Dan, pathetic is NOT that GoProud, a gay Republican group, endorsed Mitt Romney. This is about you thinking you are better than you are. Your tweet amply showed that. So the next time someone follows your lead, but back in your direction, you only have yourself to blame.
Yo Dan! Only bullies believe in and use double standards.
