What would be helpful here is to deal with facts and stop getting so caught up in emotionalism.
Has anyone verified or discredited Coburn's claims about homosexuality? Cite some studies refuting him, please.
As to the death penality for people who kill babies...how is that wrong? If I killed a two month old, I would hope I'd get the chair. Some cases of abortion involve very late term children who could easily live outside the womb. How is this not murder? And how is it so different from killing the guy who murdered a just birthed child. (Of course, that is exactly what partial birth abortion is...so I realize democrats aren't going to agree. But they are being unfair to attack Coburn for simply being a consistent defender of life and the rule of law. Remember he says he would support it IF abortion were illegal.)
Finally, on the Schilder's list thing -- I know he said that and it was not well thought through. In fact, I think you failed to mention that Coburn apologized for his remark and said he re-thought about it and felt televising the movie could be good if older children watched with adults. And he was concerned not just about nudity but also about young children being scarred by the horror on the screen. The end of the matter is that he backtracked and changed.
If Coburn is going to suggest that lesbianism is no rampant in SE Oklahoma schools & say homosexuality is the biggest problem our nation faces well the burden of proof is on his bigoted piece of crap ass. & yes there have been many studies which have debunked that pile of garbage's stances on homosexuality. Just because you only believe studies which are funded by hard right wing whack job groups doesn't mean they don't exist....
