I am the father of a gay as well as being an adooptive parent who  also worked for many years in the foster care business. Kids deserve a stable home. What about kids adopted by straights and molested, abused or ignored. Nah,gay, straight, mixed. I don&#039;t care Get over it. Gay is not a perversion any more than being left handed or nearsighted, research is showing. Keep the real creeps out of childrens&#039; lives, be they gay, straight or Republican.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I respectfully disagree that gays are a problem as parents.

Homosexuality has to do with behavior and self-identification. These people want us to believe that they are the new black. No. They are the old perverts. They demand, yes, demand, that people agree with them and validate their perversions.
They are the most intolerant people I know.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s been said many times, but bears repeating: homosexuality is not similar to ethnicity.

Come on have you ever taken a good look at my nose?-&gt; my very Greek-Italian and Near Eastern maybe parts unknown, nose.  And my skin tone- hell I was born tan.  I was even in the back row of the nursery.  When I was in Saudi Arabia people came up to me and asked for direction in Arabic.

You might want them so you can actually see, read, and understand the debate even though it&#039;s so much easier to simply call people names, piss on the rug and leave in a huff.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi Annie, thanks for the calumny and insight.
