The real intolerance hasn’t ever been mentioned. Opponents are the evil, hate mongering people of this world. At least if you believe the main stream media. One media outlet (the Washington Post) had a writer who actually portrayed a gay marriage opponent in a positive light.
That was a mistake and one for which the writer will dearly pay. Already the Post has issued an apology for such reckless behavior. As the Huffing Post remarked…
The Huffington Post called Hesse’s coverage “pathetically worshipful.”
When you lay down before the wrong altar in today’s society you are quickly sacrificed.
Outraged advocates of same-sex marriage have forced the Washington Post into an apology for running a features piece last week that portrayed an opponent as more than an evil, bigoted, hatemongering fundamentalist.
The profile examined Brian Brown, executive director of the National Organization for Marriage, one of the groups that lobbied for Proposition 8, the hotly-contested California State ballot initiative that explicitly defined marriage as between and man and a woman, overturning a State Supreme Court decision to the contrary.
Pundits on the left called the features piece, written by Monica Hesse—who says she is a bisexual and has had romantic relationships with women in the past—“absurd,” “bizarre,” and “accusatory and belittling.”
