Goldstein backs Clinton

I guess this means that Hillary Clinton now has the backing of the head of one of New Jersey's biggest hate groups.

Gay and lesbian activists and groups are some of the angriest, most miserable, hate filled, intollerant people and organizations walking the planet. They are no better in their rhetoric than the Black Panthers or the KKK.

These people want to force their lifestyle and the acceptance thereof on everybody and if you disagree with them or even dare to speak out against them, you are labeled a bigot when it is infact they themselves who are bigots who attempt to silence their oppostion through slander. Steve Goldstein is a slanderous thug who is the head of New Jersey's Gay Mafia and is attempting to force gay marriage down people's throats in New Jersey the same way it's being done through activist courts since it's been rejected in the voting booths of sixteen states. Goldstein knows full well that if put to a vote, the people of New Jersey would reject gay marriage by a landslide margin. The man knows no shame.

But I guess talking like this makes me sound like Hitler right? That's usually one of the first things these people will say.

Typical gay mafia rhetoric.

Care to elaborate on that rather than prove me right?

I don't think my comment needs any elaboration. Just the way the hate filled comments spew out of your mouth are elaboration enough. You don't give specifics, you just go off on a group of people that have been beaten, spat upon and murdered over years of discrimination just because they are different than you. Maybe you would be somewhat angry also if that kept happening over and over and over to you throughout the years. Even today, as evidenced by your hate filled rantings, it obviously is still going on in a supposedly enlightened state. And you are correct in stating that it makes you sound like Hitler...he also spewed the same sentiments against homosexuals...only he had the power to send them to concentration camps. I'm also sure that if you and your hate filled friends had that power they would still be going.

Maybe you should look into joining the Westboro Baptist Church. Seems like you would fit right in.

These guys play victim. They are very good at it. In reality you see a group of greedy individuals who not only want to force their lifestyle on everyone else but get the rest of us to pay for it. This is only about one thing, MONEY and how much of it can end up in Goldstein's pocket.

See the game here, compare gay activists to Holocaust victims. Therefore those who are against Gay Marriage are Nazis.

The history of the Gay Rights movement has been to equate opponents with Nazis. Steve is an expert at that.

Goldstein's pious "I am better than you" crap is wearing thin. Unfortunately he still continues to intimidate legislators more afraid of being called names than standing up for their constituents.

Isn't Golstein backing Bill?

Bravo Steve, Bravo.

You are amazing. You go on the attack immediately with generalities about some imaginary gay groups to slam a specific person who made an endorsement, then pretend to be the poor aggrieved truth-teller.

If you can find evidence of Steven or any other director of Garden State Equality using a Hitler reference when describing a political opponent I will eat my hat. But you can't, because they haven't.

And I regularly slam people for using Nazi and Hitler references when talking about President Bush or anyone else. By doing so, people minimize the horrors and evils of the Nazis. It's ridiculous.

But idiots on the left wing is not alone in calling people Nazis. When have you blasted Rush Limbaugh for using the word "feminazi"? My guess is never.

The use of this epithet doesn't belong to any one side of the political spectrum, and is equally odious for both.

In my view, Garden State Equality is for building up people's rights -- not tearing others down. If they stand up to those trying to oppress others, kudos to them. That no way justifies calling them a hate group.

 And I thought conservatives were all about responding with force.

"Maybe you should look into joining the Westboro Baptist Church. Seems like you would fit right in."

Funny, but the more you talk, the more you keep proving me right. You aren't discrediting anything I have said here.

Furthermore, groups like Garden State Equality are merely the extreme opposite of the Westboro Baptist Church. If you don't agree with their fringe, extremist point of view, they treat you like garbage.

Also, whether you love me, hate me, or love to hate me, anybody here can tell you that I am the farthest thing from an antisemite on this blog. I am staunchly pro Israel and have supported military action against Iran and continue to do so for the sake of Israel's security so that arguement is not going to wash here.

What's wrong with asking for equal rights? Absolutely nothing. The problem is that that's not what Garden State Equality does. They do the exact opposite. In reality they are chipping away at everybody else's equal rights to disagree with them. That's why they and groups just like them all over the country use the judicial system to get what they want and use bullying tactics, either aggressive or passive aggressive to silence any and all opposition.

I also can't help but notice that Steve has remained silent on his and GSE's  slander of Larry Giancola.

Silence sure does speak volumes.

"Any Nation which can prefer disgrace to danger is prepared for a master and deserves one" -Alexander Hamilton

Giancola is a freedom-hater. If he can't stand being called out for his words, he shouldn't say them.

I'm a straight white male. When two guys get married, my rights stay the same.

Is Goldstein on a high horse from time to time? I can agree with that, but at least he's doing it for the right thing.

I got to know Larry Giancola while I campaigned for Kean and I know for a fact that he is a good man and a great American who served his country in Vietnam. In his hometown of Guttenberg, he is the Chairman of the Memorial Day Parade Committee and is very well liked and respected within his community.

The fact of the matter is that the majority of Democrats in this country, like Larry, do not think like Goldstein. They are a fringe left wing minority who have hijacked the once great Democratic party of Roosevelt, Truman and once upon a time, Ronald Reagan which is why they haven't been able to win elections in this country until last year when Republicans started breaking their promises to the American people by spending like liberals and Democrats ran to the right of them in order to get them out of power. Democrats only won by running away from the left and if you don't believe me, ask Ned Lamont.

Hudsonreformer2007, it's very easy to sit there and call me all sorts of childish names but like everybody else here who sees fit to do the same, you're only confirming what I have stated here. All you can do is insult and call names in an attempt to discredit those who disagree with you.

why don't you prove that all gay and lesbian activists are miserable, hate filled, intollerant people - they just want the same rights and benefits and everyone else.

you proved your an idiot by showing what you wrote. go continue to waste space

i'm done responding

Garden State Equality: 28-member Board of Directors. Plus 40 District Leaders, ie one in each legislative district, who mobilize members in each district. Plus 9 Caucuses, including an African-American Caucus, Catholic Caucus, Children's Caucus, Clergy Caucus, Corporate and Professional Caucus, Couples Caucus, Labor Caucus, Latino/a Caucus and Real Estate Caucus. Each caucus has 3 cochairs and holds its own meetings. The organization endorsed 15 candidates in hotly contested primaries in June 2007, 13 of those candidates won. Since the organization's founding in 2004, New Jersey has enacted 153 LGBTI civil rights laws at the state, county and municipal levels - more LGBTI laws in less time than in any other U.S. state, ever.

You're talking in circles. Thank you for finally shutting up.

Steven, where's your apology for slandering Mr. Giancola? I'm still waiting.

If you think that I'm feeding into the "progressive" stereotype of a Republican being a "gay hating bigot" then you really don't get the point that I'm trying to make.

I also really don't care what "progressives" think because all they do is spin things and take them out of context anyway because "progressives" are liars who twist and manipulate anything and everything conservatives have to say. In other words, any "progressive" here can say whatever they want about me or Republicans in general because whether I speak up on this issue they're going to say what they want about me or Republicans in general anyway. To insinuate that what say I here gives them more ammo is quite comical.

I also find it funny that based on what I said here that everybody assumes that I hate gays which isn't true at all. I merely detest people like Steve Goldstein and his gay mafia. Anybody who thinks that I was referring to all gay people are playing into stereotypes themselves. This has everything to do with good and bad element.

As an Italian-American, I resent people assuming that all Italians are mobsters who do nothing but eat sausage and pepper sandwiches, have people whacked, watch the Sopranos and say "bada bing." Unfortunately, there is a bad element who embraces that stereotype.

That is what Steven Goldstein and people like him all over the country do by trying to force their views on an overwhelming majority of people who reject them. All it does is breed more contempt and prejudice towards gays in general and breathes new life into negative stereotypes. Once again, this is why they have to go through activist judges in the judicial system who legislate from the bench to further their agenda.

Groups like Garden State Equality look to take our freedom to criticize them by labeling people who disagree with their fringe agenda and call them out for what they are as bigots and will not be satisfied until religious freedom starts getting stripped away as well for being "homophobic." The sooner we recognize this, the better off we'll be.

Then again, as Teddy Roosevelt once said, "Americans always learn from catastrophe and never from experience."
