What makes heteros better parents than gays?

submitted by kymbos

1 decade 2 years ago

On Australia's political talk show "Q&A", an audience member asks straight conservative politician Joe Hockey why he thinks he's a better parent than lesbian politician Penny Wong.

Wong's response is priceless.

And Hockey gives a prime example of "Begging the question".

So he doesnt think gay parents are worse parents, but the best thing for children is to have hetero parents, so we must legislate in such a way that it becomes harder for gays to be parents. But they are not worse. but the heteroes are better. Or "the best think for kids". But gays are not worse. Honestly. But we must make laws promoting the best option, which is hetero. But gays are not worse. So to conclude: Not a bigot, just want the bigoted laws, thats all.

Yup, that makes perfect sense.

Yeah, it's this absolutely fucked thing that conservatives do... they say 'No, I have no issues with gays, or muslims, or evolution or whatever' only because they know that it's regarded as homophobic, racists or anti-logic. They DO have issues, they DO have issues with them, but the pussy foot around actually saying it, and just legislate against such things.

Well, that's what some of them do.

What other people do is they really DON'T have any issue with those things but vote against them due to fear of losing the ultra-conservative vote.

There was a time, way back, when Hockey and Rudd (before he was prime minister) used to face off against each other on a morning show each week... and I didn' t mind him then, he seemed ok.

But the more I hear him, the more I see he really is a conservative dick who thinks the rich should keep their money, the gays should be out of sight, and anyone who is poor is such due to their own fault.

Don't like him

I guess the only thing I've got to say for him is that he at least listened to her response and seemed to think about it
