Published on Jan 7, 2013

"Last Thursday, the gay GOP group Log Cabin Republicans (LCR) placed a full-page ad in the New York Times that attacked Chuck Hagel as anti-Israel and anti-gay and urged President Obama not to appoint him as Defense Secretary. This was quite a strange event for multiple reasons."*

Does Chuck Hagel have a "gay problem" as the Log Cabin Republicans said in their attack ad? Or is someone paying the gay conservative group to take Obama's Secretary of Defense nominee down? Cenk Uygur breaks down the situation.

    Wow, I don't know how I'd recover from such a devastating, witty, brilliant response. I'm Karl Marx because I think Ron Paul is racist. OK. Then I guess you're Suzanne Summers.

    So this is basically a false rainbow flag attack.

    You know who isn't quoted in Colossians? Jesus! Paul supposedly wrote it, not Jesus. Have you actually read this stupid book or are you just quoting the anti-gay passages to support your bigotry?

    I don't think that Karl Marx is a insult, remember that Karl was way more smarter than you are.

    Well, for one my mother is gay. Also, I'm just an open minded person... if someone says that they love someone I'm going to believe it and be ok with it, because it doesn't concern me. What someone else does/likes shouldnt be concerned with your "faith". Just because some crazy guys in the middle east wrote a book, doesn't mean you should worship it to every last word. Believe in what you may and keep it to yourself, but imo religion is a joke. Just ask yourself, "How does this affect me."
