Yeah, uh-uh

"We're not investigating an individual, and we're certainly not investigating Mr. Fanelle because he's homosexual."

This story is great. The kids ask a teacher point-blank if he's gay and married to a man, and he tells them the truth. One parent's interpetation:

I'm very upset and disappointed that this person was bringing his homosexual platform to the classroom.

He was accused of pushing a pro-gay agenda by just being homosexual. Again, this is an issue of inflammatory and utterly meaningless conservative buzzwords. "Pro-gay" means what exactly? Being gay? It seems to mean recruiting kids into homosexuality, but since that doesn't really happen, it's come to mean just being gay. So, one can conclude that "pro-gay" and "homosexual platform" just mean that a person has the audacity to be pro-him/herself.
Really, by that logic, everyone is sporting an agenda. For instance, I am pro-cat-owner, pro-gum-chewer, pro-panty-wearer. Well, that's a little silly but I am all these things in the same matter of fact way this guy is gay. The only people that seem to be pushing an agenda are the ones who are asking that this man lose his job for loving who he does. One way or another, they are definitely pro-asshole.
