Founder of Anti-Gay Family Research Institute on Bradlee Dean's Radio Show Tomorrow

From the YCRBYCH Facebook page:

You Can Run But You Cannot Hide International, Inc. This Saturday on "The Sons of Liberty" we will have with us Dr. Paul Cameron who founded the Family Research Institute. In 1985 he was nominated by a national gay magazine called "The Advocate" as the most dangerous man in America!

Dr. Cameron has been on the front lines fighting to protect marriage and family. You will not want to miss this show!


Here's an article with some facts about Paul Cameron:

"IN THE WORLD OF anti-gay activism, researcher Paul Cameron is something of a darling. When columnist Pat Buchanan wrote about AIDS and gay death in March 1993, he cited a study by Cameron. When columnist Don Feder wrote about gay servicemen and child molestation in July 1993, he also cited Cameron. Two years ago Cameron served as the scientific consultant for both the Oregon Citizens Alliance and Colorado for Family Values, the main groups pushing antigay referenda on those states' election ballots. Statistics from Cameron's studies were included in “Gay Agenda, a videotape produced by the religious right and widely circulated during last year's debate on gays in the military. Also last year, officials of the U.S. Navy and Army circulated Cameron's studies around the Pentagon as they tried to block Bill Clinton's softening of the gay ban. More recently, officials of Clinton's Justice Department cited a Cameron study in a brief prepared in connection with a gay ban lawsuit.

So who is Paul Cameron? Not the dispassionate, respected analyst that these boosters would have you believe. Cameron is chairman of the Family Research Institute (FRI), an arch-right Washington think tank that counts neanderthal GOP Representative Robert Dornan of California among its national advisory board members. Cameron himself is also a demonizer of gays: several times he has proposed the tattooing and quarantining of AIDS patients and raised the possibility of exterminating male homosexuals. Most important, he is the architect of unreliable “surveys that purport to show strains of violence and depravity in gay life....."

Clearly, Bradlee Dean is responding to criticism by doubling down - spreading even more lies and more hatred over the public airways. How is WWTC AM 1280 "The Patriot" any different than Radio Rwanda?

NOTE: The Emmer campaign and the MN GOP has yet to respond to the DFL calling out Tom Emmer's ties to Bradlee Dean.

For more about Bradlee Dean, his ties to Bachmann including audio of Bachmann saying a prayer for Bradlee Dean read this DB post.
