Pastor Ken Hutcherson, Washington state's leading anti-gay asshat, is
blaming NOM, Focus On The Family, and other major hate groups for being
too white and refusing to accept help from people like him. From the
Christian Post:
"When I knew my involvement was going
to generate controversy, I offered to step back and suggested others who
were on the frontlines do so as well for the sake of unity. They
refused, leaving me as the odd man out. If you look at them, they were
all the same color with the same moderate views. It just didn't make
sense why they would not include a person of color who was willing to
fight." "I believe there are conservatives of all colors, but the
leadership from NOM, Focus and Mission Public Affairs, wanted to run
being a moderate campaign where everyone felt warm and fuzzy. But we
know that sin is never satisfied and always wants more. These guys just
looked and acted too much like the GOP – old and white."
NOM's Brian Brown is pissed at Hutcherson.
"That is simply not true," he told CP.
"Pastor Hutcherson wanted to work on an initiative and not a referendum
which we thought was the best method. Brown also called Hutcherson's
comment "absurd and reckless," and that he never heard any complaints
from the Washington pastor. He also pointed to others such as Maryland's
Bishop Harry Jackson, Jr. who is also black and was out front in his
state's effort to overturn a new state law. "In the body of Christ I
think if we have differences they need to be aired out between us and
not in the public arena."
Focus On The Family has the madz too.
"We would have hoped that Pastor
Hutcherson would have brought something like this to us directly, but we
haven't from him so we can't respond. Over the years the state
campaigns to preserve marriage have been characterized by ethnic and
racially diverse support, and that includes Washington."
JMG reader Daniel points out that Brian Brown is now claiming his side
was outspent by 10-1. Funny how that number keeps creeping up.
