"Daddy...what's a lesbian? Am I a lesbian?"

I can just imagine the questions coming from Dodd's 2 and 5 year old daughters after his creepy remarks about how he thinks about them growing up to be lesbians. I'm not even sure if that was legal to say or admit thinking about these days. Anyways...how can he look at his 2 and 5 year old girls and think about them eating twat? Am I the only one completely creeped out by his comments? And when he walked off the set, was he greeted with high-fives and "You really nailed it out there?" Is it possible that Dodd thought that there would be folks who, after hearing about him imagining his 2 and 5 year old daughters growing up to be lesbians, said to themselves "What was that guy's name? Dodd? I'm going to vote for him. He articulates my thoughts exactly!" His remarks were the wildest, most ill-conceived, and creepy, that I've ever heard from a politician trying to win votes in an election process. I just threw up inside my throat. AL

Democratic presidential hopeful Chris Dodd told high school students Wednesday that people debating gay marriage should ask themselves just one question: What would you do if your child were gay? Dodd said anyone who would deny a gay child the right to be happy isn't being honest.
"We ought to be able to have these loving relationships," the Connecticut senator said.

Dodd, the father of 2-year-old and 5-year-old girls, said his daughters could grow up to be lesbians and that he hopes they would have the opportunity to enjoy marriage-like rights.
"They may grow up as a different sexual orientation than their parents," he said. "How would I want my child to be treated if they were of a different sexual orientation?"
Dodd, who opposed a constitutional amendment to limit marriage to man-woman unions, said he supports civil unions but not gay marriage. Asked after his address at Concord High School what he sees as the difference, he said: "I don't think probably much in people's minds. If you're allowing that, all the protections you have there, you've covered it."
As Dodd spoke, lawmakers were debating a civil unions bill a mile away at the statehouse. The bill passed easily, moving on to the Senate.
Later, during an appearance at Saint Anselm College's New Hampshire Institute of Politics in Manchester, Dodd told young voters that they shouldn't accept pundits' predictions that the Democratic field is limited to the three top-polling candidates.
Dodd, polling at under 5 percent in new numbers released this week, said New Hampshire voters should embrace his campaign for its ideas.

What's the problem with this exactly? he's right.

The problem is that him looking at his 2 and 5 year old daughters and imagining them growing up to be lesbians IS CREEPY, and it does NOT show what a great family man he is. If he's for gay rights, he could have made his case without dragging his 2 and 5 year old lesbian daughters into it. Some guys always seem to know the right things to say.

And some people read into things WAY more than they should.

The guy merely was pointing out that he appreciates the fact that his own kids may turn out to be gay some day.

You're the one with images of children having gay oral sex -- not him.

The guys says he thinks about his daughters growing up to be lesbians.

Anti-liberal, Democrats are creepy.

He said they could grow up to be gay. That's hardly the same thing as hoping they grow up to be gay, or envisioning their sex life. If he said he hopes they grow up to marry rich men, would you think he was envisioning them giving bj's?

The outrage should be that we pay politicians to hack over this petty emotional/religious traditional bullshit while more serious pressing issues exist that determine the success of our country are being neglected.

The fucktards debate these issues and pass on the real practical issues for the next wave of losers in office.

You won't be thinking about what two lesbians did decades ago when you're old, your meds are unaffordable and you don't see a nickel of any of that social security money you paid in for all those years you worked, all while the govt hotly debated flags on fire or prayer in school.

When that day comes you can ask yourself what your precious soccer team did for you and the country.

I see nothing wrong with what Dodd said.

Although, if the high five thing is true, I don't get exactly what he "nailed"

Probably from one of his handlers (simmer down AL - not THAT kind of handler). Anytime these wedge issues get pressed on a candidate when being recorded the staffers pray for a sound bite that reflects the policy and will get recycled.

Maybe to them it was a high five. Who knows.

Good point. I guess the High five thing could be more about that he didn't blow it ala the McCain-Aids comments.

Is it me - or did McCain go from 68 to 90 in 2 years? It's sad too, because he gave a lot of people hope with his "straight talk express" etc. He's had a few moments (including the recent CNN comments about how safe Baghdad has become) which I think have all been relegated him again to being the 2nd sister at the dance.

You're 100%!

This is sickning stuff. They argue about abortion and gay rights and ILLEGAL immigration. (it's illegal and oh well) These are the things they pretend to argue about, because we all know nothing changes with these subjects anyway.

But Goverment is stealing everything right from under us and nobody is talking about this. Nobody will attack their OWNERS the Corporations as to what they are doing to OUR Country!

I dhave not seen 1 person yet who would be a good President. All these slimeballs are bought and sold many times over and EVERY 1 of them should be escorted out of any Federal building.

Americans are pathatic!

Yes, well, for some of us, these issues are very important.

Very important for what reason? Because the national debt isn't high enough and we need two more digits on that national debt clock spinning so fast we can't see the numbers?

Am I being too fucking practical?

What does the national debt have to do with abortion, illegal immigration or gay 'rights'?

Only someone like that of someone like you would ever conjure a belief that lesbianism is the same as giving fellatio to another woman while staring at their 5 yo daughter.... pervert.

The point is that our government is pissing our money and our grandkids future away by pursuing these petty issues.

Gay rights or what a woman does with her body means nothing if the major issues continue to get tossed aside and continue to get worse.

We need leaders to address and try to solve major issues like health care, social security, education, and the national debt and drop all the horseshit haggling over what the gender is of two people sharing a private bedroom.

I can't believe people and politicians get caught up in these frivolous issues when the country's arteries are bleeding dry.

Or perhaps these "frivolous issues" are related to the "country's arteries bleeding dry?"

If the country is divided and culturally wishy washy, there's a spillover effect -- a lack of resolve, conviction and purpose.

I'd rather have 30-40 million American babies than these illegals flooding the country stealing American jobs.

Good social and economic policies are synonymous.

an on 'mom' and 'dad' considered – again
California agenda would require K-12 'gay' indoctrination

A plan that has been launched in the California state Assembly – again – could be used to ban references to "mom" and "dad" in public schools statewide by prohibiting anything that would "reflect adversely" on the homosexual lifestyle choice.

It's similar to a plan WND reported was approved by lawmakers last year, but fell by the wayside when Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed it.

"SB 777 forcibly thrusts young school children into dealing with sexual issues, requiring that homosexuality, bisexuality and transsexuality be taught in a favorable light," according to an alert issued by the Capitol Resource Institute.

"Not only does SB 777 require that classroom instruction and materials promote and embrace controversial sexual practices, it also bans school-sponsored activities from 'reflecting adversely' on homosexuals, bisexuals and transsexuals," the group said.

"Pushing this radical homosexual agenda in California schools will stifle the truth in favor of political correctness and will inevitably conflict with the religious and moral convictions of both students and parents," said CRI Executive Director Karen England. "The full ramifications of this sweeping legislation could affect the entire nation as most textbook companies tailor their material to their number one purchaser: California."

She noted that Los Angeles schools already have implemented most of the proposals now pending for districts across the state, and among the changes are:

* "Mom" and "dad" and "husband" and "wife" would have to be edited from all texts.

* Cheerleading and sports teams would have to be gender-neutral.

* Prom kings and queens would be banned, or if featured, would have to be gender neutral so that the king could be female and the queen male.

* Gender-neutral bathrooms could be required for those confused about their gender identity.

* A male who believes he really is female would be allowed into the women's restroom, and a woman believing herself a male would be allowed into a men's room.

* Even scientific information, such has statistics showing AIDS rates in the homosexual community, could be banned.

"It's embarrassing that we've got kids who can't pass their exit exams, but we add all sorts of complications [to school]," she told WND.

She cited an informational document published by the Gay-Straight Alliance Network and the Transgender Law Center.

"If you want to use a restroom that matches your gender identity … you should be allowed to do so," it advises. "Whenever students are divided up into boys and girls, you should be allowed to join the group or participate in the program that matches your gender identity as much as possible."

Further, the groups advise, "If you change your name to one that better matches your gender identity, a school needs to use that name to refer to you."

Randy Thomasson, of the Campaign for Children and Families, noted that the proposal was made by 'lesbian state senator Sheila James Kuehl, D-Santa Monica."

"Schools need to do a much better job teaching kids reading, writing and arithmetic, not a better job advertising controversial sexual lifestyles to captive six-year-olds," he said.

He also noted that, just as last year, two other bills also are pending: AB 394 by Assemblyman Lloyd Levine, D-Van Nuys, would demand that schools distribute to students "anti-harassment" education programs, and AB 675 by Assemblyman Mike Eng, D-Monterey Park, would give $1 million to pay for homosexual, bisexual and transsexual activists to turn 10 public schools into "sexual indoctrination centers."

Last year three similar bills were approved by California lawmakers, but were vetoed by the governor.

Many groups, including several national outreaches such as the Colorado Springs-based Focus on the Family, had lobbied for the veto.

One of last year's plans would have required the State Board of Education to increase sensitivity to so-called "discrimination." Under the plan the state Superintendent of Public Instruction would have had unlimited discretion to withhold state funds from schools that did not comply with that individual's interpretation of the law.

A second would have "integrated tolerance training" into history and social science curriculum and started a pilot program that would have forced students to learn a "new definition" of tolerance, one that would require them to not only accept but advocate for homosexuality, bisexuality and transgenderism, according to the CRI.

The third would have banned anything that "reflected adversely" on homosexuals, bisexuals or transgenders.

Former Assemblyman Larry Bowler, R-Elk Grove, described them as no more or less than "indoctrination, designed to inculcate our children and our grandchildren."

As WND has reported, California lawmakers also are considering a plan to make it a criminal offense to spank children with a spoon or similar instrument.
