Democrats disavow their Senate Candidate"},"content":{"rendered":"

This isn’t really related to the military, but it does illustrate how out of touch voters are with their candidates. In Tennessee, Mark Clayton<\/a> won the nomination of the Democrat Party for their Senate seat. But the State Party got a bad taste in their mouth about him after they found out that the only times he ever voted for a Democrat candidate was when that candidate was himself. It seems that the voters in Tennessee voting in the primaries were so disconnected from the issues that they just voted for Clayton because he was at the top of the ballot. I’ve been saying for years that we need to rescind the 17th Amendment, and that proves my contention.<\/p>\n

Anyway, the State Democrats announced that they’re withdrawing any support for Clayton because he belongs to a “hate group”. Which hate group? Public Advocate of the United States<\/a> which apparently supports a social conservative agenda which has put them on the “Hate Map” of the Southern Poverty Law Center because they oppose same-sex marriage;<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Yup, there they are among the white supremacists and the KKK in Virginia, just because they oppose same-sex marriage. Not that they’ve ever done anything to physically or verbally abuse any gays, but just by opposing the agenda, they’re a “hate group”. And the Tennessee Democrats are making their decision based solely on the word of SPLC that it’s a hate group to disavow their candidate. <\/p>\n

Yeah, I checked to see if SPLC had listed the TAH Corporate HQs and Resort as a hate group and they haven’t gotten around to it yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
