I registered just so I could read the article. Yes, what was posted was a synopsis paragraph, but the article elaborates on the statements made in that paragraph. Here's another part:
"During his failed campaign last fall against Barack Obama (D) for the Illinois Senate seat, Alan Keyes lashed out at Mary Cheney, the lesbian daughter of Vice President Cheney. Keyes told a radio interviewer that Mary Cheney was a "selfish hedonist." Then, without having been asked anything about his own family, he volunteered that "if my daughter were a lesbian, I'd look at her and say, 'That is a relationship that is based on selfish hedonism.' I would also tell my daughter that it's a sin and she needs to pray to the Lord God to help her deal with that sin."
Maya heard the comments and recoiled. "It was kind of strange that he said it like a hypothetical," she says. "It was really kind of unpleasant."
He knew at the time that his daughter was gay, yet he makes a statement like that? It get's even better- worth registering to go there and read it.
The man doesn't deserve a great kid like that. What a creep.
