You Are a Bigoted Homophobe (UPDATED)

by

Almost exactly half (49%) of Granite Staters are “bigoted homophobes.”

That is according to the latest New Hampshire Poll by American Research Group and using the phraseology offered up by Steve McBrian in this Union Leader Op-Ed, which is still live on the UL’s website.  I notice that there are more “bigoted homophobes” than not, as only 42% of New Hampshire citizens favor civil unions.  9% have yet to decide if they are “bigoted homophobes” or not.

I would offer up some key pull quotes from Mr. McBrian’s ranting Op-Ed, but the thing needs to be read from beginning to end, so please do so now.  Suffice it to say, virtually everything in it is incorrect.  It is so over-the-top, I assumed it was a joke, at first.

Here is the biggest problem facing Mr. McBrian, Gov. Lynch, and all those Democrats in the State Senate who will vote to redefine marriage this week.  ARG writes:

While 72% of voters between the ages of 18 and 24 favor a law allowing civil unions in New Hampshire, 55% of those 25 to 44, 52% of those 45 to 64, and 53% of those 65 and older oppose a law allowing civil unions.

Having worked on a great many campaigns in my time, I can tell you with certainty that the 18-24 age demo doesn’t vote with very much intensity.  But the 45-64 age demo and the 65+ demo does.  This means that among those voters who vote reliably and consistently, majorities oppose the Democrats’ course of action on civil unions, which, by the way, is not what they were elected to act on.

The redefinition of marriage is but one consequence of electing extreme ideologues who operate under the guise of moderate good-government types.  Fortunately, the guise is being lifted and these people must stand for election every two years.

UPDATE: Pastor Greg Lull should expect some hate mail.
