Yesterday, Alan Keyes, who is running against Democrat Barack Obama for a US Senate seat, took the trouble to get on the radio to announce that gays and lesbians are “selfish hedonists”.
Illinois Republicans were quick to explain that Alan Keyes, who lives in Maryland but is asking to represent Illinois in the US Senate, is an expert in selfish hedonism. It seems that Mr. Keyes has a long history of experience with selfish hedonism.
Well, we thank Mr. Keyes for clearing up the question of just where the Republican Party stands on issues of bigotry. Now that Keyes has identified the selfish hedonists, we’re waiting for the praise he’ll offer to those conservative elite corporate criminals like Ken Lay and Conrad Black. They’re not selfish hedonists, that’s for sure.
