Liberal religious intolerance watch – Day 3: Philly City Councilman Edition

The latest liberal exposed for rank hypocrisy when it comes to pledging “religious tolerance”? Philly City Councilman James Kenney:

Philadelphia City Councilman Jim Kenney (D) entered into the Chick-fil-A furor this week with a letter to company president Dan Cathy.

The latest skirmish in the nation’s culture wars began when Cathy told the Baptist Press that the company was “guilty as charged” for backing “the biblical definition of a family.” In a later radio interview, he ratcheted up the rhetoric: “I think we are inviting God’s judgment on our nation when we shake our fist at him and say, ‘We know better than you as to what constitutes a marriage.'”

Gay rights groups have called for a boycott, the Jim Henson Co. pulled its Muppet toys from kids’ meals, and politicians in Philadelphia, Boston and Chicago told the chain it is not welcome there.

Kenney wrote: “As a fellow American and an elected member of Philadelphia City Council; I am entitled to express my opinion as well. So please — take a hike and take your intolerance with you. There is no place for this type of hate in our great City of Brotherly and Sisterly Affection.”

Here’s the letter Kenney wrote.

And as conservative talk show host Michael Graham wrote in today’s Boston Herald, Boston Mayor Tom Menino has some “religious tolerance” hypocrisy to answer for himself. Big time.

I’m working on getting together a contact list for every hypocritical Democrat politico who has made their bigotry against Bible-believing Christians obvious for the world to see. I’ll share it as soon as I have everything together.
