Success! No “Breakfast” For “Kill The Gays” Author Bahati!
Success! No “Breakfast” For “Kill The Gays” Author Bahati!
The author of Uganda’s “Kill The Gays” bill isn’t coming to breakfast. David Bahati will not attend the National Prayer Breakfast on February 4. There’s little information to go on, and it’s unclear if he was “disinvited” as Joe.My.God put it, or if he, indeed, had declined months ago, as Warren Throckmorton stated. (Check out Box Turtle Bulletin’s thoughts on this too.)
It would have been yet another public relations disaster for President Obama, had Bahati attended, as Obama will be at the Breakfast also.
Of course, the “Stop Uganda’s “Kill The Gays†Bill Author From Entering The U.S.” couldn’t have hurt!
