It's time to take out the trash. First we have fossil Robin Hayes, in a tight race here in NC against Larry Kissell. Making news the other day -- campaigning in true "git her dun" flair -- for saying that "liberals hate real Americans that work and achieve and believe in God."
Hayes's spokesbot initially denied the member of the House Prayer Caucus said "real Americans" comment, but then audio surfaced, and he "apologized" and gay-bashed in the process.
He said he was trying to draw a distinction on the differences between liberals and conservatives but admitted his comments were not the right way to do it. In addressing his statements at the rally, Hayes attacked LGBT families.
"As a conservative, I fight for lower taxes and policies that strengthen our values," Hayes said in the written statement. "Liberals are advocating higher taxes, which I believe punish success - and they are advocating policies like gay marriage that I feel undermine strong families."
