Maybe if Sarah Palin put herself in our shoes, she would know how much pain it is to be gay. How many people judge you and take your rights away as a person. It's not fair, you don't just choose to make life harder for yourself. I wish people would just understand that, and things would be so much better for everyone.
gay guy here plz do not confuse palin with her church she has no stance and her views have never been expressed also there is a clear democratic bias in this video I'm not saying support palin I'm just saying get the facts not the propaganda. is that so much to ask?
Don't be afraid. There is someone Who loves you. He can help you discover your true identity and your true self worth. He can show you why you are here and how your life can impact eternal destinies. Maybe take a look at the following video in love and openness. It called "How can we help? Ex gay leaders speak out" and you can find it right here on youtube. God cares about you and loves you just the way you are... and so do some of His people.
Hopefully time will correct for these foolish fundamentalists, unfortunately they have had influence for thousands of years. However we are at a time when the world is becoming more educated and understanding.
I run a high school GSA in Alaska, and I can tell you that this is all 100% true. Sarah Palin has never been a friend or ally to the queer community, and as governor she has stopped queer positive legislation in its tracks.

Mt 24:35 "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away."
Hmm. That tells me that you better take heed to what is written in the Bible on how Jesus wants us to live, and who will and will not inherit the Kingdom of God. To say the Bible is just a witness and not the law is foolishness. Too many people water down what is written so it fits there sinful lifestyle. That way they don't have to change how they are living. WAKE UP PEOPLE, IT'S YOUR ETERNAL LIFE YOU ARE BETTING ON!!
I'm from the Middle East, and there I have SEEN "traditionnal marriage": Women oppressed, uneducated, used, abused, sold, bought and SILENCED. Just like it used to be here in the US traditionnally...
...And yet, we've FORGOTTEN about that!
Marriage is ALREADY changed, and we ALL benefit from that!
I just don't like Palin. She seems to be with McCain, lagging about fifty years behind everyone else in this world. If anyone is interested, please check out my video responce "The History of Marriage, Gay Marriage, Gay Parents and Divorce"
Most people in high positions are religious, but Palin seems to be expressing it more. If you want to hate Palin for being honest, why not you hate Clinton and Obama too for voting on and signing the Federal Defense of Marriage Act preventing the federal gov't from recognizing same-sex marriage.
I don't understand how any woman or minority could EVER vote for Sarah Palin. The thought of her as VP -was- incredibly scary; I'm just thankful we can avoid her at least for another couple of years.

yeah whatever, all you homo-phobic people. It also says in "your Bible" that people that eat Pork and men that cut thier hair and beard should be put to death. I bet you also believe that the World was "created" in just 6 days. Yeah right! Oh and it dont even mention Homosexuals in the Bible until 1942...i think they call that "hearsay" Cus i dont think God was here in 1942. So that part was intriduced into the Bible by someone else. Worry about something that really matters why dont ya?
Funny how Palin says she has gay friends when she just left McCain's view and said she wants a Constitutional ban on gay marriage. What a good friend she is...
I know. I'm not judging her as a person, but belief-wise I disagree with her whole-heartedly. I could never vote for her in good conscience because of her views.
LOVEET, you must be a closeted gay person, for your fear and ignorance usually stems from exactly the inability to realize what you really are and what you do behind closed doors. I pity people like you, whom claim to religion, like Sarah Palin, to hate others in the name of God. Great Christians, aren't you?
mariage is about love. a man can love a man just as much as a man can love a woman, just as much as a woman can love a woman. you say 'hands off' as though the gay community are taking something away from you. your still able to get married (dipshit)
Because we all know California state laws have magical powers that somehow allow them to govern not just their state but the entire federal government.
ooh, i hit a nerve. think about this genius. the only time "gay marriage" becomes an issue is when someone in power (20 out of the past 28 years that would be republicans) needs to distract their ignorant, uneducated, bible-thumping, conservative base from the fact that they're voting against their own economic interests. so the grand old party tosses out some "straw man" (immigrants, terrorists, gays) like red meat to pitbulls so you dimwits won't actually THINK. you won't win this so why try?

the only reason anyone would have such an irrational and violent dislike of gays is if they harbor latent tendencies they're ashamed of. we all know you've been spending a little too much time in the steamroom at your gym and that's fine. when you're ready to come out, the community will be there to support you as you make your journey down that yellow brick road toward pride and self-respect. : )

Dumbass! I did not say "everyone" in the military is gay-but there are quite a bit-again fighting for your rights-even if you are too stupid to have them. And the last time I check-the freedom to live the life the way you wanted does not mean that you're forcing others to live the same lifestyle. But then again-you would not understand that-in that religious fanatic conservatives CONSTANTLY project their views and lifestyles on others. I'm surprise that you know how to use a computer.
Bill Clinton sure did do a good thing. Because of "Homos" cowards like you can just sit on your ass and bash them-while they fight for the right for you to bash them-fucking inbred idiot.
I have you know that some of those "freaks" are fighting for your freedom right now. Oh-wait-I forgot only morons like you have the right to use that excuse.
Is she done with menopause? Because if she isn't, and is elected, she'll ruin what's left of this country. And no one better ever cross her, or she'll send her husband to hunt them down. She has clearly done that in Alaska. Even without any stand on gay rights, this woman is crazy for power and will abuse it over and over if elected.
YIKES!! Some of those freaks are eye poison!! God hates fags! Take the sign already beyotch!! The only way I know those fags are lying is because their lips are moving. If you stupid fags would just stick to the FACTS, Palin is bad enough without trying to change God! You can't change God - but Sarah Palin is a scary monster without that!
God forbid we have this awful person who calls herself a religious one (DON'T THE WORST ONES ALWAYS DO?) as VP of this nation of freedom for ALL, the way it always was and should always be. Maverick??? SHE THINKS SHE IS ONE??? Controlling books (along with HER church, of course), like they do in totalitarian countries (which she is fast to criticize for the same reason?) Allowing people to shoot wolves from helicopters AND point-blank? Pretending to be "tolerant" of LGBT people? Ppp-please!!!
Great video. I too was wondering about the comment she made in the debate making it seem like she was gay friendly. It didn't add up from other reports I had heard. You all are brave up there in Alaska! My hat is off to you.
if you can pray for homosexuality to be "reversed" why not pray for something abit more helpful?... like the cure for cancer and AIDS. or the children dying of poverty all around the world? oh wait there is something more important! pipelines in alaska!!!!
So many problems with this. First, the pastor is clearly in the bag for Obama. He's wearing a button and lives there putting his book into the libraries. If they're political enemies and there is an outcry by the public to remove his book, of course it would get removed. Its not like she took out other gay works.
Second, you can't find more than 4 or 5 people of the pursuasion to "come out" against her?
well done segment. although the dem ticket is not for gay marriage they are for "ABSOLUTE" rights to same-sex couples. Sahah's response or non-response to the question posed at the debate should make every gay person watching cringe... If our community had only moved in appropriate steps to gain equality and rights we would have those nationally today, instead .. the fight to call our rights marriage have derailed our fight. History shows us that the battles of rights is in steps. SEE MY VIDEO!
Look at the ages of the justices on the Supreme Court. In the next four years, their could be up to 3-4 vacancies as liberal justices retire. McCain/Palin have been very upfront in saying they intend to nominate conservative judges who will reverse Roe vs. Wade. They have stated this is their intent and I take them at their word. If Roe vs. Wade falls, do you think Lawrence vs. Texas is far behind? In a heart beat, everything we have gained in the last few years could be lost.
During the VP debate both Sarah Palin and Joe Biden said they are not for gay marriage. I'm not sure why people here wants to give their vote to Obama/Biden when they don't want you to have the right to get married.
As for Sarah Palin, she should have used the word "respectful" instead of "tolerant" when referring to gay partnerships. Tolerant sounds condescending.
Bottom line, neither ticket is for gay marriage, which should not make gays eager to vote for one party over the other.
Wrong. Obama/Biden are light years ahead of McCain/Palin when it comes to gay rights. Do not be fooled by the placating talk coming out of the McCain campaign. McCain/Palin are not and will never be friends of the GLBT community. Messages like these only muddy the water when their records are clear.
Well first off, there a many MANY other important reasons to vote for Obama/Biden over McCain/Palin. AND you will find that MOST of those reasons represent an ideology and world view that by its nature is much more conducive to respect and acceptance toward gay people and a desire to treat them as equal members of the American family. The reality is, Obama-Biden ARE for marriage equality. They will appoint judges that affirm that. They simply can't say it out loud, or they WON'T be elected.
She used the word "tolerant" because she IS condescending, & she didn't use the word "respectful" because she ISN'T respectful! Palin is a Fundamentalist Christian who has the support of a party who has been taken over by Fundy Christians who have worked 4 Constitutional amendments & laws to GUARANTEE that same-sex couples & families will NEVER be treated as equals! Do NOT try to pull that trick that both tickets support LGBT people equally. That is a lie 2 fool LGBT people n2 voting 4 McPain.
Right on. I feel so bad for the LGBT community in this country. They're supposed to have the same rights as straight Americans but, nope, doesn't happen. People need to get over these old fashioned prjudices.
Don't believe palins new found love for gays during the debates. She thinks being gay is a choice. Her church wants to "pray the gay away". Gay themed books have disappeared from library's in Alaska during her time as gov.
We all have to come out against palin, they all about Homophobia , let's vote NO to The California Marriage Protection Act it's very important for a gay commuity
I personally don't like either candidates or their VPs (that's also partially to do with me not being 18 yet). If one of them actually had a soul, then maybe I would support that person as a minor, but I hate all four of em. I'm an ally in this fight, and it makes me absolutely sick to know that certain individuals aren't allowed to have the same rights as everyone else just because of who they are and how they live.
Those may, or may not be, valid complaints of all the candidates. However, I was very underwhelmed to find that you had no such solution to said problems. Don't just tell us what's wrong, come up with ideas on how to fix it and work on enacting them. Otherwise, you are part of the problem as well.
I'm not 18, I can't vote yet, and even when I get the ability to, I probably won't. I don't like politics and I don't keep up with anything regarding politics. All I know is that the only people you can vote for in this race are all anti-gay.
So vote for somebody else then. And if McCain/Palin win then you can toss and turn at night in torment over the FACT that YOU helped contribute to their win, and turned back the clock on gay rights, protections, and equality causing great harm to gay people for MANY decades to come (Supreme Court), all because you're mad that Obama doesn't come out and say gay unions should be called marriage (which if he were to do so, he could just drop out of and concede the race now). Get a clue.
You apparently didn't read my rant/complaint very well, eh? I can't vote, legally anyway. Even when I turn 18, I probably won't. I support the fight for Gay Rights, I'm not involved in the political part of it.
Thank you all for your work and your bravery in putting this together. I found this woman's remarks on "tolerance" of homosexuality at the debate chilling. She is unacceptable as a president-in-waiting.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Book ban rumor has been provel not true.. Do some research! Your revisionist history is sickening. Obama and Biden is not for gay marriage either. You have never and would never vote for a GOP member so your opinion is worthless. No one in the mainstream is in favor of why is shown daily out of San Fran Sicko! Deal with it!!
Hey threein60; typical right wing ignoramus that you are. As they say, anything a right winger says, the opposite is true; you are the MASTERS of revisionist history. But then you probably don't even realize that due to your right wing miseducation. Everything this video says about Palin's attempt to ban books is true. Mayor Palin DID ask about removing certain books at the Wasilla library and then later fired the librarian after she said she would refuse to carry out any such request.
No one said this was journalism - How you didn't think Gay folk in Alaska would support Palin or that HRC would offer up anything but a partisan (pro Obama) piece is beyond me. You're obviously not the sharpest 'tool' in the shed, eh? ... Want happiness? Go back to Faux News and Billo the clown, by all means.
Why torture Alaska anymore? Send her to Russia! She could take over and ruin someone else for a change!!! (And drill/hunt as much as she wants! Talk about deregulation...why don't these deregulation retards move over to where their communist ideals can truly be realized???) Ultimate executive power, no regulation, rampant corruption!!!! Sound Republican?
When you come into this world, you get to choose your sex. Some are not sure and sometimes make a wrong choice. They then end up being in the wrong body. That is how gay people come about. Some guess correctly and end up in the right body. Most are sure that they are male or female so most end up as heterosexuals. Gay people should be accepted as full human beings, in all walks of life because being gay is no big deal. My source for this info is Billy Meier, who got it from the Pleiadians.
we thought joe made a great point on the basic, constitutional and legal rights for same sex couples. He said ABSOLUTELY they deserve the same rights as a hetero couple. Sarah, as many noticed, said.. "well if we give them those rights, the next thing ya know they will want marriage" Our history shows us the ignorance and struggles of many classes to simply obtain equality. when will we learn is the message in my newly posted video on rights, check it out and rate it, share it, add it!
if your going to quote, do it right. Well, not if it goes closer and closer towards redefining the traditional definition of marriage between one man and one woman. And unfortunately, that's sometimes where those steps lead, Palin responded, adding that her answer shouldnt be taken to mean that she would be anything but tolerant of adults in America choosing their partners, choosing relationships that they deem best for themselves. see any difference?
Now, four networks' polls are in -- CNN, CBS, ABC & NBC. Of course, people polled on all four thought Biden easily won the debate (CBS by almost 20%). Even AOL, normally very right leaning, gave it to Biden -- as well as BBC, Router and Gallup. In otherwords, everyone in the world except Fox. The nightly polls show an overwhelming majority polled by the major networks and news sites still think Palin is unqualified to be VP. No surprise. Can't wait to see Tina do some of Palin's answers.
Darcscorpio11, if you have the opportunity to see that portion of the debate again, take note that she said-- and I'm paraphrasing --that she's for equal rights as long as those rights don't move towards same sex marriage. So, what does that mean? What rights would she consider a move toward same sex marriage? Visitation rights? Parental rights? Shared property rights among same-sex couples?
and the way they want to support is condoning a separate but equal policy, same sex couples may receive the rights, but we need to call it something different. Very similar to sitting on the back of the bus if you were black
Darcscorpio, you should check the facts. Obama supports the full repeal of DOMA, the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell, and ENDA. McCain has come down on the opposite side of all these issues. While they both officially oppose full marriage equality, Obama has come out in support of Prop 8, while McCain supported a similar vote in Arizona. On Palin's personal record, these people have known her as a politician longer than anyone else, and are probably the best judges of her as a pol.
you can not repeal DOMA and not support Gay marriage, same principles apply to both. Clinton fooled US and I will not be fooled again. neither party thinks our unions are good enough for them!
Don't be a fool or an idiot rickya2. Obama-Biden are BY FAR superior when it comes to gay rights/protections/equality compared to McCain-Palin. Ron Paul? Opposes gay rights and equality. Maybe you're no fool, but are simply a right wing anti-gay bigot in disguise, doing your best to suppress the Obama-Biden vote. The smart vote in EVERY good, progressive, nation strengthening area is for Obama-Biden. The FOOLISH vote is any other vote, particularly if it helps put McCain-Palin in office.
Thank you, HRC, for bringing these important Americans into light to express how they have been repressed by Palin and her anti-different hate-mongering politics.
NOT voting Sarah Palin. We don't need her impossing her holy rolling, tounges talking, book burning, hateful extremist christian values on America. Hate and discrimination is hate and discrimination, even if she wants to do it int he name of God (much like Islam killing and hating in the name of God) It's evil..-she's no better!! NO BETTER!!)
They need to ask Palin in the debate if she believes the Bible is the inerrant word of God, and then follow-up with "Do you believe in the strictures called for in Leviticus?"
LGBT or hetero, we are all the same! Love is love!

Is she done with menopause? Because if she isn't, and is elected, she'll ruin what's left of this country. And no one better ever cross her, or she'll send her husband to hunt them down. She has clearly done that in Alaska. Even without any stand on gay rights, this woman is crazy for power and will abuse it over and over if elected.

So many problems with this. First, the pastor is clearly in the bag for Obama. He's wearing a button and lives there putting his book into the libraries. If they're political enemies and there is an outcry by the public to remove his book, of course it would get removed. Its not like she took out other gay works.
Second, you can't find more than 4 or 5 people of the pursuasion to "come out" against her?
Third, I call her friend.
Ridiculous.

well done segment. although the dem ticket is not for gay marriage they are for "ABSOLUTE" rights to same-sex couples. Sahah's response or non-response to the question posed at the debate should make every gay person watching cringe... If our community had only moved in appropriate steps to gain equality and rights we would have those nationally today, instead .. the fight to call our rights marriage have derailed our fight. History shows us that the battles of rights is in steps. SEE MY VIDEO!

Look at the ages of the justices on the Supreme Court. In the next four years, their could be up to 3-4 vacancies as liberal justices retire. McCain/Palin have been very upfront in saying they intend to nominate conservative judges who will reverse Roe vs. Wade. They have stated this is their intent and I take them at their word. If Roe vs. Wade falls, do you think Lawrence vs. Texas is far behind? In a heart beat, everything we have gained in the last few years could be lost.
Gamemaster729 3 years ago
During the VP debate both Sarah Palin and Joe Biden said they are not for gay marriage. I'm not sure why people here wants to give their vote to Obama/Biden when they don't want you to have the right to get married.
As for Sarah Palin, she should have used the word "respectful" instead of "tolerant" when referring to gay partnerships. Tolerant sounds condescending.
Bottom line, neither ticket is for gay marriage, which should not make gays eager to vote for one party over the other.
christylangley 3 years ago
Wrong. Obama/Biden are light years ahead of McCain/Palin when it comes to gay rights. Do not be fooled by the placating talk coming out of the McCain campaign. McCain/Palin are not and will never be friends of the GLBT community. Messages like these only muddy the water when their records are clear.
Gamemaster729 3 years ago
Well first off, there a many MANY other important reasons to vote for Obama/Biden over McCain/Palin. AND you will find that MOST of those reasons represent an ideology and world view that by its nature is much more conducive to respect and acceptance toward gay people and a desire to treat them as equal members of the American family. The reality is, Obama-Biden ARE for marriage equality. They will appoint judges that affirm that. They simply can't say it out loud, or they WON'T be elected.
EmeraldView 3 years ago
She used the word "tolerant" because she IS condescending, & she didn't use the word "respectful" because she ISN'T respectful! Palin is a Fundamentalist Christian who has the support of a party who has been taken over by Fundy Christians who have worked 4 Constitutional amendments & laws to GUARANTEE that same-sex couples & families will NEVER be treated as equals! Do NOT try to pull that trick that both tickets support LGBT people equally. That is a lie 2 fool LGBT people n2 voting 4 McPain.

I'm an ally in this fight, and it makes me absolutely sick to know that certain individuals aren't allowed to have the same rights as everyone else just because of who they are and how they live.

Those may, or may not be, valid complaints of all the candidates. However, I was very underwhelmed to find that you had no such solution to said problems. Don't just tell us what's wrong, come up with ideas on how to fix it and work on enacting them. Otherwise, you are part of the problem as well.

Kirvee2 3 years ago
So vote for somebody else then. And if McCain/Palin win then you can toss and turn at night in torment over the FACT that YOU helped contribute to their win, and turned back the clock on gay rights, protections, and equality causing great harm to gay people for MANY decades to come (Supreme Court), all because you're mad that Obama doesn't come out and say gay unions should be called marriage (which if he were to do so, he could just drop out of and concede the race now). Get a clue.

But then you probably don't even realize that due to your right wing miseducation. Everything this video says about Palin's attempt to ban books is true. Mayor Palin DID ask about removing certain books at the Wasilla library and then later fired the librarian after she said she would refuse to carry out any such request.

When you come into this world, you get to choose your sex. Some are not sure and sometimes make a wrong choice. They then end up being in the wrong body. That is how gay people come about. Some guess correctly and end up in the right body. Most are sure that they are male or female so most end up as heterosexuals. Gay people should be accepted as full human beings, in all walks of life because being gay is no big deal. My source for this info is Billy Meier, who got it from the Pleiadians.

we thought joe made a great point on the basic, constitutional and legal rights for same sex couples. He said ABSOLUTELY they deserve the same rights as a hetero couple. Sarah, as many noticed, said.. "well if we give them those rights, the next thing ya know they will want marriage" Our history shows us the ignorance and struggles of many classes to simply obtain equality. when will we learn is the message in my newly posted video on rights, check it out and rate it, share it, add it!
PrideVoter 3 years ago 4
if your going to quote, do it right. Well, not if it goes closer and closer towards redefining the traditional definition of marriage between one man and one woman. And unfortunately, that's sometimes where those steps lead, Palin responded, adding that her answer shouldnt be taken to mean that she would be anything but tolerant of adults in America choosing their partners, choosing relationships that they deem best for themselves. see any difference?

Now, four networks' polls are in -- CNN, CBS, ABC & NBC. Of course, people polled on all four thought Biden easily won the debate (CBS by almost 20%). Even AOL, normally very right leaning, gave it to Biden -- as well as BBC, Router and Gallup. In otherwords, everyone in the world except Fox. The nightly polls show an overwhelming majority polled by the major networks and news sites still think Palin is unqualified to be VP. No surprise. Can't wait to see Tina do some of Palin's answers.

Darcscorpio11, if you have the opportunity to see that portion of the debate again, take note that she said-- and I'm paraphrasing --that she's for equal rights as long as those rights don't move towards same sex marriage. So, what does that mean? What rights would she consider a move toward same sex marriage? Visitation rights? Parental rights? Shared property rights among same-sex couples?

Darcscorpio, you should check the facts. Obama supports the full repeal of DOMA, the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell, and ENDA. McCain has come down on the opposite side of all these issues. While they both officially oppose full marriage equality, Obama has come out in support of Prop 8, while McCain supported a similar vote in Arizona. On Palin's personal record, these people have known her as a politician longer than anyone else, and are probably the best judges of her as a pol.

Don't be a fool or an idiot rickya2. Obama-Biden are BY FAR superior when it comes to gay rights/protections/equality compared to McCain-Palin. Ron Paul? Opposes gay rights and equality. Maybe you're no fool, but are simply a right wing anti-gay bigot in disguise, doing your best to suppress the Obama-Biden vote. The smart vote in EVERY good, progressive, nation strengthening area is for Obama-Biden. The FOOLISH vote is any other vote, particularly if it helps put McCain-Palin in office.
