Comments on: Cameronesque Award: The Family “Research” Council http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/2009/05/15/11438 News, analysis and fact-checking of anti-gay rhetoric Sat, 18 May 2013 21:32:26 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: Christopher Waldrop http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/2009/05/15/11438/comment-page-1#comment-40786 Christopher Waldrop Sat, 16 May 2009 11:26:01 +0000 http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/?p=11438#comment-40786 Sweet indeed, but I'm a little peeved. In another article I made a comment about how anyone in favor of marriage equality--actually I should have said all LGBT supporters and their allies, since fighting marriage equality is only part of the destructive "Family" "Research" Council's mission--can never operate on a level playing field because our opponents are willing to lie. And I should have saved that comment for here. So let me restate it as a challenge. Let both sides debate the issue honestly and openly, sticking to the facts. Although I think it says something that the "Family" "Research" Council is so insecure they can't do that. Sweet indeed, but I’m a little peeved.

From what I've seen none of their "research" is about families, its all about oppressing LGBTs Rather than Family “Research” Council, it should be “Family” “Research” Council.
