Democrat Scott Peters calls gay GOP Carl DeMaio ‘Mary’

Progressive liberal Democrats like Scott Peters always like to claim how they are for peace, tolerance and love. They always gone on about ‘NOH8’ and equality for gays. Problem is, progressive liberal Democrats aren’t what they claim and are the true racists and homophobes in this country. It couldn’t have been more obvious than California Democrat Rep. Scott Peters who is running against a gay Republican for Congress named Carl DeMaio. Peters mocked DeMaio, calling him ‘Mary’ because he’s gay.

The Log Cabin Republicans are calling on Representative Scott Peters (D., Calif.) to apologize for a post on his campaign website that used a pejorative term for his Republican challenger, Carl DeMaio, who is gay.

The group takes issue with a post by Democratic political consultant and gay-rights activist John Aravosis on Peters’s website. After quoting DeMaio saying he feels more intolerance and hostility from the LGBT community for being Republican than from social conservatives for being gay, Aravosis snarks, “Oh Mary, it’s so hard to be you.”

“There is no doubt that if the roles were reversed and a straight Republican congressman promoted content on his website calling his gay Democratic opponent a ‘Mary,’ there would be no end to the outrage from the left,” Log Cabin Republicans executive director Gregory T. Angelo said in a statement. “Of course, when a Democrat does it, no one raises an eyebrow — but we’re not going to let this slide.”
