GOP House Nominee: Anti-Gay Americans 'Fed Up' Just Like Bundy Ranch Militia

Pastor Jody Hice will likely become U.S. Congressman Jody Hice in November. This week he won the Georgia Republican primary in a "safe Republican" district.

Hice has a long history of dangerous and virulently anti-gay remarks, including advocating the position that gay people have a secret plot to seduce and sodomize America’s sons. Hice also thinks same-sex marriage is akin to bestiality and incest, and he has compared abortion to the genocide waged by Adolph Hitler.

Today, on his radio show, Pastor Hice spent several minutes praising the lawless Bundy Ranch militia members.

"I will never forget these ranchers on horseback," Hice told his audience. "They were prepared to die. They were ready for confrontation. They were saying, ‘Enough is enough. You’re not going to trample on our rights any more. You have gone far enough and no further will you go.’"

They never thought it could be worse than being 'represented' by Paul Broun. They were mistaken.
