Fox News Clip: #AskFLOTUS Indecency
I’m back from India — just in time to rejoin the fray of unjustified and uncivil but nonetheless unbounded attacks from the far right against everything and anything Obama. This time? Right wingers take to Twitter to try and sabotage a simple Q&A chat with Michelle Obama on fitness and healthy eating. Sheesh.
Here’s the clip, courtesy of Fox News and Mediaite:

Why do Gay people have to ” be humanized”? Are you trying to say its not human to be attracted to ones own sex? Don’t get upset! just saw your article and decided to ask a question?
Steve, not offended at all. Gay people are, of course, human and yes, it is human to be attracted to someone of the same sex. But in the piece to which you refer, I was arguing that gay folks / the gay community needs to be “humanized” in part because anti-gay forces have so viciously dehumanized us for decades — with slanderous portrayals and misrepresentations, to put it mildly. That clarify it?
