President Barack Obama has been accused
of advancing the “radical homosexual agenda” by Kansas
Congressman Tim Huelskamp, media watchdog RightWingWatch.org
reported.
Huelskamp appeared on Today's Issues
with Tony Perkins, president of the Christian conservative Family
Research Council (FRC), to promote his Military Religious Freedom
Protection Act, which would forbid gay troops from marrying on
military bases and would allow chaplains to refuse to officiate over
such unions.
During the radio broadcast, Huelskamp
accused Obama of launching a “shocking violation of religious
liberty” as part of his “administration's push for the radical
homosexual agenda.”
“We have forty-seven cosponsors in
the House including some leading members of the Armed Services
Committee and we're having a lot of great support also as well. We
continue to hear, and this is the scariest thing, we hear from
chaplains all across the country and even military bases elsewhere
around the world that the administration's push for the radical
homosexual agenda goes all the way down to having to get approval for
their sermon notes, having to have man's approval for things they're
going to preach. I mean the idea that we're going to not allow
chaplains to disagree with the President of the United States and his
administration is a shocking violation of religious liberty,” he
said.
