Bob Marshall: The Face of Theocracy and Hate in Virginia

Last night I attended a City of Hampton committee working on diversity issues and ways to attract the so-called creative class to both Hampton and Virginia as a whole. Meanwhile, Bob "Taliban Bob" McDonnell and Delegate Bob Marshall - the face of the Christian Taliban in Virginia - are making sure the state has plenty of negative news coverage that ought to send a strong message to LGBT citizens and progressive businesses that Virginia is NOT a place to live, work or relocate one's business. MyFoxDC has coverage of Marshall demonstrating to the world that religious based discrimination continues to thrive in Virginia. As for those in the media who foolishly claim that they like Marshall in person on a one on one basis, I'd remind them that Hitler could reportedly be charming in similar situations. They need to open their eyes to Marshall's true agenda which is very, very ugly. Here are highlights from Fox and a short video clip:
*
Should gay couples have the right to adopt children in Virginia? Currently, only married couples or single men and women - regardless of sexual orientation - can adopt.
*
But a proposal by former Virginia governor Tim Kaine would change that. It would prevent child welfare agencies from considering sexual orientation or religion during the adoption process.
*
But, not everyone's on board with the plan. Republican Delegate Bob Marshall and Ellen Kahn, Family Project Director with the Human Rights Campaign Foundation, the nation's largest gay rights organization debated this topic on FOX 5 News.
