Alan Keyes is a compassionate conservative

[Undertoad]

Via Andrew Sullivan and Oliver Willis, melanin-enriched righty Alan Keyes found out this week that his daughter is a lesbian. In a fine display of family values and conservative compassion, he explained to her that because he takes his morality from Christ, he hates her sin, but he loves the sinner, and understands that all of us face challenges in our struggle to lead an upstanding life, and shared with her his own struggle with sin that all of us share as original sinners.

No, I kid. He actually fired her and threw her out with no means of support.

A couple days ago I got my official two-week warning that I have to be out of this apartment; so finally for real I'm getting cut off. I got no severance or anything like that from my sudden termination of employment (don't I have freedom of speech? the right to protest Bush without losing my job? Hehe... most people would think that working under a parent would be security but for me it's quite the opposite.) and so I definitely don't have anywhere near enough cash to find a new apartment; not even one room rented from someone anywhere. I've been searching craigslist but even places where I'd have enough to pay the first month's rent on some room I never have enough for the deposit as well, so so far I've had no luck at all finding a new home, since shelter requires money. Sad boo.

If you take your moral direction from guys like this, do consider that they are heartless, embarrassing pieces of shit, not upstanding moral Christian examples. I often mourn the left for taking moral direction from Michael Moore and Al Sharpton, but this is just as bad.
