Republican Lawmaker 'Very Disappointed' After Campaign Manager Outs Her Gay Son
Ugh! This is so awful!
While praising a Republican Colorado lawmaker for voting against civil unions, a campaign manager outted the politician's gay son in an email forwarded to her supporters.
Although State Rep. Marsha Looper's campaign manager, Lana Fore-Warkocz, did not write the email, she still didn't bother to think that maybe her boss' family shouldn't be discussed.
The message was forwarded to supporters in an effort to highlight her opposition to a civil union bill during a May 8 committee vote. In reference to her vote against the bill, the email read, "God is truly to be praised for Marsha Looper because she also has a homosexual son."
After receiving the email that repeatedly writes, "Praise God!" Looper told sources she was "very, very disappointed" that her son's sexuality was mentioned. "I love my son," she said. "I always will. He has said, 'Mom, I want my privacy.'"
In an official statement, she explained the inappropriateness of the email by saying:
"I am disappointed that my campaign manager forwarded an email that would include any member of my family in policy discussions. My opinions, financials and policies are appropriate discussions for the campaign, however my family members' personal lives are not a legitimate avenue for my campaign, or any other campaign to discuss."
While it's certainly sad to see the mother of a gay child not support equality for the LGBT community, it's even sadder to see her campaign team use his sexuality to make a political statement.
We're also disappointed to see how many times a particular set of religious beliefs was referenced when discussing political policy for the ENTIRE state. We wish separation of church and state would be upheld in the political arena because we're getting pretty tired of politicians citing their personal religious beliefs as a reason to oppress others who don't share the same view.
If somebody can't differentiate between religion and politics, then they shouldn't be involved in either.
Just like the state can't tell you what religion to follow or God to believe in, the state can't SHOULDN'T be able to tell you who you can or can't marry based on religious principles. It's that simple, folks. Freedom of religion should also mean we're free from regulation inspired by ANY religion.

So hilarious how morally superior Hilton now condemns anyone who outs someone, a practice synonymous with him and his site. You were unapologetic, it was your mission in life and you had no regrets. You will always be a hypocritical buffoon, no matter how many times you've declared you've changed.
You have some nerve, Perez. You celebrate crudely when Ted Allen outed Anne Burrell, not to mention how many actors have you outed? Hypocritical douche.
love it!!!! when hypocrites like this bitch get what they deserve.
That is probably the most intelligent article you have ever written! I agree with you 100% Perez! Religion has NO place in politics! I think as soon as a candidate/elected official even mentions anything having to do with religion and policy, that person should lose any standing they have! Separation of church and state! That along with freedom of religion is what this country was founded on!
i thought gays were against civil unions? yall want marriage not civil unions right? if so, how is she not supporting her son?
And….. You really should stop outing people yourself!
Re: Toy4Paco – Wow. You have no idea what this country is about, do you? Have you ever read the Constitution? Do you know what an ass you look like when you write about the "separation of church and state" that doesn't actually exist in the document upon which this country is founded? Our government is forbidden to establish an official state religion and may not sponsor one. We are guaranteed freedom of religion in the Constitution. It's idiots like you who are responsible for the ignorance in this country. Before you make a post about our laws and rights, DO SOME FUCKING RESEARCH, you moron.

Re: Lady Who? – I couldn't have said it better myself, and I'm glad you said it so I could let Toy4Paco know what a retard he is.
.
Perez, you're as stupid as that Toy4Paco fool. But YOUR stupidity is based on blatant dishonesty and hypocrisy. You out people when it suits you, and you use the gay in politics all the time. I don't know how you can look in a mirror and not want to blow your own brains out. You are a truly awful person and have no redeeming qualities. The Paco idiot might be able to be taught, but you can't. You'll do or say anything for money; you've sold out your causes and the few fans you had left for the almighty dollar. Karma will get you, and I can think of few who will deserve it more than you do.
I thought Republicans had PERFECT FAMILIES that were blessed by God….
She must be a very BAD MOTHER, like Marie Osmond; maybe her son can go to one of those Pray-To-Be-Straight Psycho-Wacko clinics…and emerge with a raging hard-on ready to fuck every chick he sees?
and now YOU'VE outed him. No one would have known about this accept their circle if it hadn't been posted here.No idea who this lady is
I don't want to look too rational, but before you start ranting, would be good if you read the whole bill that she voted against
To my knowledge most Republicans are OK with civil unions, which give gay couples the same rights, they are just not cool with the word MARRIAGE
Re: Jackay00 – you must be a Fox News watcher then, they have been shown to be very uninformed when it comes to news!
A simple search shows it is ALL OVER the news sites online, including the Denver Post where the story was linked to off here!
Re: La Garse – Just so you know:
"Separation of church and state" (sometimes "wall of separation between church and state") is a phrase used by Thomas Jefferson (in his 1802 letter to the Danbury Baptists) and others expressing an understanding of the intent and function of the Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. The phrase has since been repeatedly cited by the Supreme Court of the United States.
The First Amendment to the United States Constitution provides that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof …." and Article VI specifies that "no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."
Perez is such a hypocrite. He puts peoples personal s*** on blast EVERY day. I'm gay myself, and yet I don't really go for this marriage crap. In the end, the oppressed always become the oppressor. NO MATTER WHAT. Perez condems people for having their own opinions on matters, yet he's allowed to say whatever he wants about everyone else. BULL SH**!
Just an FYI for idiots claiming republicans are hypocrites..How many democrats have been caught in sex scandals? How many democrats have admitted to smoking pot but yet they turn around and say its bad and keep it illegal. ALL politicians are hypocrites.
You use to out people all the time. HYPOCRITE!!!
So which of her sons are gay? Justin or Travis?
This is very sad. Her son Travis is a very nice (and good-looking guy).
