The Reverend Ken Hutcherson is on Dave Ross’ show right now and is definitely taking credit for Microsoft’s chickenshit move un-endorsing gay rights. The Reverend is quite proud of all the attention he has received today from the national media.

Ross asked him if the church currently uses PC’s and if they were planning to switch to Macintosh or what if Microsoft did not cave-in to him. That seems an unlikely move because Apple is hardly a conservative company either. How ironic it would be for all the fundamentalists to become Mac-users. (just for the record, we are Mac fanatics ourselves and wouldn’t mind seeing that)

In the meantime, the Reverend continues to feel his oats. Now he is trying to get 2 Microsoft gay employees fired for lobbying for the bill.

One interesting thing the Reverend had to say about hardball politics: He says that he is quite comfortable in having the majority take away people’s rights. He says that abortion is legal because the majority voted that way, and furthermore when or if abortion is made illegal than the majority would win again.

The difference, quite obviously, is that by abortion being legal, that does not mean that everybody has to have an abortion. To the contrary. It is simply a right that is left to the individual. If abortion is illegal, than nobody will be allowed that choice.

The Fundamentalist Right keeps on keeping on.
