| Matt Barber |
The Liberty Counsel's Matt Barber is the lgbtq community's best ally in our fight for equality.
Forget the pseudo piss- elegance of Maggie Gallagher and the National Organization for Marriage because Barber simply won't play that game.
He is from the old school where the David Dukeish turn of a phrase "we aren't anti-gay, but pro-family" won't apply.
Barber is simply homophobia defined. Pure, unadulterated, and very vindictive. He never misses a chance to demonize the lgbtq families, including our children.
Witness this monstrosity of a statement courtesy of People for the American Way's Right Wing Watch:
Barber's heart doesn't break. If anything I would suspect that his heart skipped at yet another moment to demonize the lgbtq community. He certainly has a twitter history of doing so.
Like his tweet about the death of Osama Bin Laden:
Or his equally tasteless tweet during President Obama's recent State of the Union speech:
Or the various ugly, called-for-comments he has made via twitter about the lgbtq community after the New York marriage equality victory:
I would actually pay to hear religious right figures reconcile the filth which comes from Barber to the notion that their actions against the lgbtq community have to do with simply upholding "traditional values."
If the filth emanating from Barber represents "traditional values," then we need to toss them over immediately.
And if people like Maggie Gallagher and NOM had any integrity, they would denounce Barber. But who am I kidding?

Matt Barber and Deryl Edwards of Liberty Counsel dedicated Faith and Freedom to discussing the dangers of allowing gay and lesbian couples adopt children. Barber, who previous said that the high suicide rate among LGBT youth is due to the fact that they intuitively know that being gay is wrong, said that his “heart breaks” for children adopted by same-sex couples who are using them as “propaganda photographs” and “props on their lap.” He elaborated that same-sex couples don’t actually care about the welfare of children but only want to further “post-modern sexual anarchy.”

Barber needs to read Matthew 23:14-15, 23-28 and Matthew 7:1-5, 21-23
MFC, FRC, Barber and the rest of them are pharisee's and false prophets.
Truly as you say Alvin, Lies in the name of God are still Lies.
What do you expect from outfits who have been deemed hate groups... by folks who know exactly what they're talking about?
The Southern Poverty Law Center hit the nail on the head with these nasty characters.
