Barney Frank called Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia a "homophobe" recently in an
interview with a "Gay" news internet site.
This is a wonderful example of the patent dishonesty frequently used by "progressive" (collectivist) politicians. Particularly when they are promoting the agenda of tiny fringe minority special interest groups such as homosexuals (liberal ones I must clarify).
The idea is to use false attributions to frame the debate on an issue into an argument that has nothing to do with the facts at hand. For instance, in the example above, Frank (D-MA) calls Justice Scalia a "homophobe". This imputes, ridiculously, that the Justice bases his decisions of some sort of undefined "fear" of homosexuals or homosexuality. In fact, Justice Scalia bases his decisions on the U.S. Constitution. Read
his dissent in the Lawrence case and point out any indication of "fear" of homosexuals.
We think that homosexuals would have much greater success in their activism for acceptance and endorsement of their abnormal and unnatural choices if they stuck to the facts of their issues. As long as they insist on imagining, or worse, projecting their own emotional states on to those who are their political opponents they won't gain the ground they seek.
American Freedom should include all and significant cultural and social changes
SHOULD be debated, but based on fact, not on the dishonest attribution of emotional states by assumption or deception.
