SEVERAL THOUSAND CLAIM THEY AREN'T GAY

Quite a scene in Raleigh yesterday ... a rally for people who are not being forced to marry someone of the same sex saying they WILL NOT marry someone of the same sex, and are prepared to burn a few fornicators at the stake to boot, which just goes to show you how deeply into the closet some Christian right-wingers are prepared to hide themselves.

Noted: Senate leader Marc Basnight and House leader Joe Hackney were not impressed.

What was this rally, really? This posting at NCBlue, quoting Laura Leslie, makes the most logical sense. It was a campaign rally for Republican gubernatorial hopeful Fred Smith, and we certainly want to do what WE can to support his success in that party.

He's EXACTLY the kind of bigot we want running as a Republican for governor.
