What a moron.
Someone should tell him that the only thing that goes away if you ignore it are your teeth.

PA State Rep Holds Up "Domestic Violence Awareness Month" Resolution
Western Pennsylvania Republican House member Darryl Metcalfe (R- Cranberry Township) stymied fellow politicians and advocates around the state when he balked at a “Domestic Violence Awareness Month” resolution because of a perceived underlying “homosexual agenda.”
The measure, introduced as H.R. 105 to acknowledge October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month, is a frequent non-controversial practice. Metcalfe’s opposition stems from language that identified men as victims of domestic violence, without noting the gender of said perpetrators.

I had tried to start a thread on this back on Sept. 19. http://www.topix.net/forum/news/gay/TCVQH9FJ6...
It is interesting to note that Siptroth has introduced this bill annually for the past few years and Metcalfe has voted for it until this year. Here's a link to one of the original local articles http://www.poconorecord.com/apps/pbcs.dll/art... |

How about changing the terminology to "PEOPLE should not be subjected to domestic violence"?

This isn't the only issue where Metcalfe is being insulting and ridiculous. He recently responded to a group of Iraq and Afghanistan veterans who are touring the US for global warming awareness by calling them "traitors" and compared them to Benedict Arnold. http://thinkprogress.org/2009/10/20/climate-t... Can't wait for the next election to get this guy out of office. What a disgrace!! |

Daily Horoscope for December 24
Aries
Christmas Eve finds you happy and eager to get the most out of the day. You're in a rather sentimental mood, so if you've got time you'll relish the chance to watch a favourite film, especially if it means you've got to get out the hankies. A friend's kindness or sensitivity will delight you - and make you wonder how you can reciprocate.
