Will the real Bill O'Reilly please stand up?

Last night Bill O'Reilly from Fox news reported that Scott Eckern had been forced to resign from the California Musical Theatre. In addition, he said that if gay marriage is allowed to be revisited that the law would be forced to address polygamy and the legitimization of marijuana as though they were issues that should be addressed in the same breath.

There are many ways to address the enemy camp. In this case, this man is an institution unto himself. He wields a great deal of power, simply by the spoken word. Though he thinks that he attempts to be fair, his prejudice is so deep that his contempt is visible on his face.

He is condescending and disrespectful. We on the east coast in New York cannot help but wonder what will occur when our chance for equality comes around.

We have many open churches here that serve the gay community. However, my concern is that once our chance comes up that O'Reilly and other staunch conservatives will put their noses to the task and implement the ringing of the death knoll for our cause.

Our Governor has said that New York will recognize all marriages from other states.

However, I want to know that when we get our right to marry that our community will have a full knowledge of O'Reilly's power and the forked tongue with which he speaks.

He continually espouses the rights of gays yet manages to be snide and falsely tolerant of our rights.

I am interested in any activity that is occurring in New York re this issue and would appreciate hearing from any and all with ideas.

The prevailing thought is that homosexuality is a CHOICE!

This, of course, means that we are all masochistic as well as certifiably insane to have chosen such a difficult life.

Last night he called homosexuality an action. Implicit in this is conscious thought contingent upon choice.

Now I am mad. Like a dog!
