Duke the hypocrite

In 1/20 issue of "Midweek" Dan Boylan quotes Duke Aiona:
"I'm not in favor of gay marriage, but I've never said I was not in favor of civil rights for everyone. After all, I am a man of color. I understand the importance of protecting civil rights".

The disingenuous hypocrisy of opponents of HR444 is just astounding. I wonder if they even think about the stuff they say and what it means. Duke's comments remind me of when I was growing up in the 1960's... "personally I support civil rights and have have nothing against Negros (or Asians or Native Americans, etc.), but I don't think they should be allowed to go to school with my children or move into my neighborhood." Sadly, Duke thinks that his is the moral and Christian position.
