As much as I want to win back the United States Senate, some people I just can't support and Brad Carson is one of them.
He does not support the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, he does not support the Hate Crimes Bill and he has endorsed the Federal Marriage Amendment.
Now, kos and other progressives - would you even be supporting or promoting a candidate if they were this terrible on these issues that affected another minority. I would hope not and seeing you plug Brad Carson, without pointing this information out is a little upsetting.
I wanted to support Stephanie Herseth, but I could not because of her support for the Federal Marriage Amendment, and I feel the same way about Brad Carson.
When history looks back, it is going to judge all of these politicians accordingly and in 35 years, we'll be asking why Stephanie Herseth, Brad Carson and many other politicians were so spineless to support something this shameful.
Nobody, regardless of party deserves money or support if they want to write permanent second-class citizenship into the United States Constitution. This is not a partisan issue, it's an issue of basic fairness.
Please stop plugging bigots, regardless of who they are going to vote for when it comes to Speaker of the House and Majority Leader of the Senate. A bigot is a bigot, and we as progressives deserve better.
