Diana Cardenas and GOP driven Homophobia: tragar un cardo ... by gimleteye
Al Cardenas may never get closer to power than during the grand old days of the Bush era, but now that his wife, Diana, has become a star blogger against homosexuality there may yet be life for the Cardenas marriage in the Michelle Bachman wing of the radical right. "Marriage is a vital social institution between two members of the OPPOSITE sex. It goes way beyond just an emotional relationship---it serves a vital role in the stability and continuity of our society, something which homosexual marriages cannot provide," writes the new thinker of the radical right. Cardenas' husband is now chairman of the American Conservative Union, part of the Grover Norquist / Karl Rove corporatewiki. Their reality-based community defines homosexuality as an illness. Whether they believe it or not is immaterial: pouring gasoline on the culture war during an economic crisis has always been a profitable strategy for the radical right: count on more.

I disagree that he may never get closer to power than during the Bush era.
Actually the astute Al Cardenas has positioned himself well, no longer in Florida, but in Washington as head of the American Conservative Union which every year convenes the CPAC convention up there.
In his national position, he sets that agenda.
Went to your link, She had plenty more to say:
"it IS a threat to society. It is not nature's way. They can't procreate, can they?....You hvae them in your family? Well, there is no reason not to like them or love them, the same way you would love one who has a disability, or an illness,etc. I just DO NOT want them pushing their agenda on the majority who are not. This is just about sexual preference--keep it in the bedroom!!!! It is not about being denied any constitutional rights.....Ana, I got your point.....I am just tired of this topic being shoved in our face continually by all these gay activists and I have to ventilate my feelings.... You know I always wondered why homosexuals are referred to as 'gay', kind of an oxymoron? Nothing really 'gay' about them or their movement..."
This is a very sick lady. It's bad enough her husband is crazy but did she have to fit in so well?
Is this really news worthy? Did someone run out of ideas to cover? BORING.
Sure it is news worthy that a major operative in Miami has a wife like this. Boring? Think not. I find it amusing that she also wears a fur coat in her Facebook picture.
God invented Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.
Come on G.O.D. everyone knows you built the world in 7 days, you hung the sun and the clouds in the sky, you drlled little holes in the sky to make the stars and hung the moon up in the night sky.
You made the plants (thanks for the Ganja big guy) and the animals and the oceans and then those two scantily clad supermodels Adam and Eve, I was always suspicious of Adam that loin cloth does look totally gay.
Anyway don't be so modest G.O.D. tell us how you did it. Do you have any actual footage of the creation or the operation where you took out Adams rib and made Eve?
So is this the guy who wants to be the local lobbyist for the little cities? I can't believe anyone would hire him and his firm with these type of politics out there. He's just way too ___Send him over to Lynda Bell. He's her kind of lobbyist.
LOL! Sorry, Al Cardenas publicly supported Flinn - not Bell.
And Cardenas supported Crist over Rubio.
gimlet makes the most important point at the very end of this entry - this is the sort of thing the Right does to take your attention off what they're really up to.
This sort of thing will ramp up the closer the election gets.
I understand the value of drawing the connection of this dingbat and her power-broker husband, but as you can see from the comments, the conversation pivoted to her comments.
Repubs are super-good at games of distraction. How else could they turn an unemployment crisis into a fight over future debt?
