Right wing groups raise a fit when they are compared to Nazis. However, comments made by PFOX and the Family Research Council's Peter Sprigg make the comparison seem accurate. Commenting on the Uniting American Families Act, legislation that "would allow same-sex partners to be united legally through the U.S. immigration process," Sprigg said we should be exporting homosexuals, rather than importing them.
Who does this self-righteous person think he is to tell Americans that they must leave their country? Could you imagine the temper tantrums if a gay groups said we should export Christians?
This is an example of raw bigotry and of how little these wing nuts value our lives. One wonders, if given the opportunity, if they would justify murdering us? Clearly, they see us as less than human, and have no concern how "exporting" gay people would effect our friends and family members. Much like how the Nazi's saw Jews, people like Sprigg believe our lives our meaningless and we are expendable. These are scary people and we need to pay close attention to their rhetoric. According to Sprigg:
"We oppose this bill because it is, although it may be at the margins, part of an assault on the definition of family...I would much prefer to export homosexuals from the United States than to import them into the United States because we believe homosexuality is destructive to society."
Why do none of the two democratic contenders go after republicans about this kind of thing and why is it that the republican party seems to engender this kind of thinking? What makes them this way? We're waiting Clinton and Obama!

These are the same people who could barely contain their glee when the AIDS epidemic struck gay men in the early 1980s. If they lived in the 3rd Reich, they'd be the the first ones handing in job applications for a position in one of the Konzentrationslager.

People like this man truly need help. The funny thing is that our lives have no effect on him except in his own twisted mind. They are just ... sick.

I also wish the democratic contenders would go after people like these, too. It may not be high on their list of objectvies - but rhetoric such as this can be found in the media of the time during pre-nazi rise to power.

Wayne you also forgot to mention that the Nazi's wanted to exile the Jews from Europe until they found that no other country wanted to take them, that was when they implemented the "final solution". I bet these christocrats would do the same as the Nazi's did to the Jews.

LOL@Eshto, yeah the nutballs ARE like Garfield trying to ship Nermal off to another country!
It's about fucking time gay people start calling this BS for what it is - plagiarized Nazi propaganda.
And the "ex-gays" are using it too, Randy "Stay-Puft" Thomas being one of them.
