Rush Limbaugh’s Top Anti-Gay Quotes
Rush Limbaugh, the current de facto leader of the Republican Party, is known to be bigoted and homophobic.
Â
And while he speaks to Conservatives, it’s important that you know what he has to say about you. Here you go, five of Rush Limbaugh’s most offensive, anti-gay, homophobic, bigoted comments:
- Aired a song about Senator Barney Frank called “Banking Queen“.
- Democrats will “bend over, grab the ankles, and say, ‘Have your way with me’†to African American and gay voters.
- On the Mark Foley scandal: “In their hearts and minds and their crotches, they don’t have any problem with what Foley did. They’ve defended it over the — over the years.“Â
- Openly gay students are “trumpeting” their sexuality, “inviting dissent”.
- “When a gay person turns his back on you, it is anything but an insult; it’s an invitationâ€
Lastly, there’s this one, which I have yet to figure out how many sensibilities it offends:
“…let’s say we discover the gene that says the kid’s gonna be gay. How many parents, if they knew before the kid was gonna be born, [that he] was gonna be gay, they would take the pregnancy to term? Well, you don’t know but let’s say half of them said, “Oh, no, I don’t wanna do that to a kid.” [Then the] gay community finds out about this. The gay community would do the fastest 180 and become pro-life faster than anybody you’ve ever seen. … They’d be so against abortion if it was discovered that you could abort what you knew were gonna be gay babies.”
