Keyes calls Cheney's Daughter a "selfish hedonist"

Alan Keyes, the Republican candidate for a vacant U.S. Senate seat in Illinois, said Tuesday that Vice President Dick Cheney's daughter Mary is a "selfish hedonist" because she is a lesbian.

His comments came during an interview with SIRIUS satellite radio.

Keyes said: "The essence of ... family life remains procreation. If we embrace homosexuality as a proper basis for marriage, we are saying that it's possible to have a marriage state that in principal excludes procreation and is based simply on the premise of selfish hedonism."

Asked whether that meant Mary Cheney "is a selfish hedonist," Keyes said: "That goes by definition. Of course she is."

1. I'm starting to get the idea that

Alan Keyes may not win a senate seat this year.

3. Gee, ya think?

:freak:

2. Hah! Thank you Alan Keyes, keep it up good buddy.

More of this. Please.

5. He just keeps on giving and giving

[hatrack]

15. Does the name "Rupert Pupkin" ring any bells?

I see another television show in this guy's future!!

4. Hey, Alan! Keep talkin' baby, just keep talkin'...

HAHAHAHAHA!!!

What were they thinking dragging this nut into the race?!

6. I'm SOOOOOO disappointed he declined to speak at the RNC.

It would have been SO helpful.

7. That man has problems

13. With a dart.

At a great distance.

8. Well he won't be getting a check from the RNC for his campaign

I want to see Obama put the pedal to the medal with his campaign, to make it his quest to permanently cancel the political viability of Alan Keyes, to carry every county in Illinois.

19. I hope Obama

gets 100% of the vote. It's not completely unreasonable to think it's possible.

9. "If we embrace homosexuality as a proper basis for marriage"

I always thought LOVE was the proper basis for marriage. Silly, silly me.

16. I thought marriage was a contract

Having to do with property division, inheritance rights, power of attorney, etc.

The government doesn't certify baptisms or Bar Mitzvahs, so why should it be concerned with any other "sacred rite"

10. No more marriage for retirees or the infertile !

Those damn selfish hedonist elderly !

The FMA should include a procreation clause, doncha think?

11. Sooooooooo I guess this means that......................

my 44-yr-old testicular-cancer-survivor boyfriend and I (47-yr-old "dried up old prune") cannot get married? Because babies are not in the plans??? WTF?????????????

[kestrel91316]

12. Here's my proposal:

any married folk who do not start cranking out spawn within 12 months of the wedding and keep it up annually, shall have their marriage annulled and then be imprisoned. For life.

[kestrel91316]

14. Oh, and hey Mr. Keyes?

Are you seriously proposing that "selfish hedonists" of the homosexual persuasion be FORCED to marry a person of the opposite sex against their wishes?????????? Go suck an egg.

17. Hey, I got my toaster oven. Now where is the hedonism?!?!?!?!?

Do the math, Keyes.

A fertile woman might marry at 20, hit menopause at 50. So, 30 years of fertility, say.

So, let's say she wants two kids. So, you're talking procreational sex twice. In thirty years. Actually, in a lifetime. Thousands of weeks of sexual activity, and only two babies?

So, even the "ideal" married heterosexual couple is engaging in nonprocreational sex over 99.9% of the time.

Sounds wild to me! Hedonistic! </sarcasm>

18. He's probably gay.

20. The gift of laughter from the Illinois GOP for me and you.

I'm sure this guy's doing wonders for Bush/Cheney in Iowa and Wisconsin.
