Among other disclosures: The Liberty Counsel, which has offered to help Rekers sue his critics, used Rekers’ fraudulent antigay testimony in proceedings to ban marriage for gay people in California.

On MSNBC tonight, Rachel Maddow reports on Prof. George Alan Rekers’ gay escort scandal. Rekers is co-founder of the “ex-gay” think-tank NARTH and of the Christian Right political group, the Family Research Council.

Maddow spotlights the contrast between the elder antigay activist’s alleged sexual behavior with a very young man, and Rekers’ letter to school boards, in which he posed as a “pediatric” expert and urged schools to be intolerant of LGBT youths — just two weeks before Rekers’ scandalous European vacation.

I’m warning you now, you can’t unsee this.

I like when the shouty beardaddy pastor starts yelling for the crowd to do the Hokey Pokey “by faith.” I wasn’t aware there was any other way to do it.

Larry King hosts the debate between Sinead O’Connor, the intellectually dishonest, anti-gay Bill Donohue, former CNN anchor Thomas Roberts, himself abused by a priest as a teenager. and a couple of priests. Bill Donohue basically continues his campaign of not caring about the victims and defending the Pope no matter what. He also continues his disgusting argument that raping minors isn’t so bad if they’ve hit puberty.

The only good thing about this scandal is that it’s exposing people like Bill Donohue for the rape apologists they truly are.

There’s an entertaining moment in this segment where Sinead O’Connor says something very sensible, and indeed, conciliatory — she is, after all, a committed Catholic — and Bill Donohue loses his mind. I’m going to guess he’s not accustomed to respecting a woman’s forthright opinion, but again, that’s just a guess.

In this third clip, Bill Donohue hilariously claims that he is “second to nobody” in fighting for victims of sexual abuse. Amazing. The self-aggrandizement is simply amazing:

Finally a solution!

The free market does solve everything.

Thanks, Monsanto!

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton speaks to the National Prayer Breakfast yesterday regarding the U.S. obligation to deter genocide and human-rights violations against the LGBT people of Uganda.

Bruce Wilson of Talk To Action – a veteran watchdog of the Christian Right — has created a very short documentary called “Transforming Uganda.”

Please share the video with friends or colleagues, and spread the word that the Uganda antigay genocide legislation is not an isolated incident. In fact, the “transformational” movement is working underground in several cities in America.
