Via Fark, a Republican FL house candidate is nervous about the encroaching gays: story

Quote:
In remarks reported in this column on May 15, the Republican state representative candidate said he was "homo-nausic" and warned that Palm Beach County residents should be wary of gays and lesbians moving north from Broward.

"I've had enough of their influence on our culture and society," Heeney said. "I have no personal difficulty with them. I just know they're not to be underestimated. They're very, very militant."

One concern: A phenomenon he detected in which "the lesbian community" in Fort Lauderdale was buying restaurants and bars, making it difficult for non-gays to shoot pool.

Those comments earned him a visit from cable TV's Comedy Central. He's scheduled to be featured on Jon Stewart's Daily Show at 11 p.m. Monday, with repeats at 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. Tuesday, though the segment could be postponed by breaking comedy news.
