"Joe the Plumber" Stuck In Time Machine
"Joe the Plumber" was asked about statements that he made on marriage for same sex couples the slur "queer" and the notion that someone who is gay lesbian bisexual or transgender (LGBT) is likely to molest kids. He has not learned that as a straight male he is more of a threat to molest his own kids than someone who is LGBT. It’s time for "Lester the Molester" to start using facts before he tries to run for office on opinions. The "n-word" was originally a neutral noun for a person with dark brown skin from Sub Saharan Africa. Would he use that term when talking about someone who is black?
"Joe the Plumbers" continued ignorance with regards to the use of "queer" as a slur to someone who is LGBT is indicative of someone out of touch "Joe the Plumbers" stance on marriage and denying committed consenting unrelated couples their right to have their relationship recognized by the government has racial undertones and matches those who opposed interracial marriage. He wants to represent Lakewood, an area with a large LGBT population, with archaic views from the 1960's shows he is someone who doesn't want to represent everyone.
