Group backing Sally Kern calls transgender opponent Brittany Novotny 'a confused it'

    Novotny is challenging Kern, the woman best known for saying gay folks were the “biggest threat our nation has” at a 2008 gathering of Republicans, for the seat she's held since 2005. In an email to members of the Oklahoma Conservative Political Action Committee (OCPAC), the group's president, Charlie Meadows, calls Novotny “a confused 'it'” and suggests she hates God.


    “Brittany used to be a 'he,' had a sex change operation to make him into a 'her' but turned out to become a confused 'it.' Some have suggested that having a sex change operation is a person's greatest act of rebellion and hatred toward God for His making them what they were,” Meadows wrote in the email.


    “The hatred and rage toward Sally [Kern] continues unabated in the homosexual community because Sally dared to declare their political agenda for what it truly is, more dangerous to the future of America than the threat of terrorism."

    this is something I've been following for a while now, I don't know if anyone else is aware if Sally Kern and her hateful comments, but I've been hoping that Novotny can win. I think it's absolutely disgusting to call anyone an "it" and it's extremely low for Kern's supporters to have said such a dehumanizing thing.

    I can understand (though not condone) that some people might have genuine issues with gays, but to believe that they are the biggest threat to a nation's security isn't just homophobic, it's absolutely idiotic. Seriously, we should laugh at this woman and her supporters for being a cretin, as much as for being anti-gay. Although, what's the bets she's probably having a lesbian affair with her aide. That's how it usually happens in these things.
