Romney accused of bashing Bay State family advocate

Posted On One News Now

The pro-family group Americans for Truth is asking former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney to apologize for disparaging a staunch opponent of the homosexual agenda in his state.Hear This Report
Governor Romney's presidential exploratory committee is attempting to discredit a report compiled by Brian Camenker of Mass Resistance called the "Mitt Romney Deception." The report documents Romney's liberal -- and often "flip-flopping" -- record on issues like abortion and homosexuality. A new posting on Romney's website, under the title "The Real Brian Camenker," cites various media reports that portray the Jewish, pro-family activist as a right-wing extremist.
Americans for Truth president Peter LaBarbera says the Romney camp is attacking "an American hero in the fight against the radical homosexual agenda." Romney, he contends, is using the "liberal media" to "bash" the pro-family activist because he is upset with Camenker.
"

Peter LaBarbera[H]e's upset that Brian has exposed his past pro-abortion, pro-homosexual, and liberal record on other issues," says LaBarbera. "And we think this is very sad that they've resorted to sort of demonizing Brian Camenker."

According to the Americans for Truth leader, Romney used a liberal program, The Daily Show, to "belittle" Camenker. LaBarbera characterizes the program as one that "loves to set up Christians and then make fun of them."

"I think [that] says more about Mitt Romney than it does about Brian Camenker," LaBarbera observes. "Brian Camenker is one of the bravest pro-family activists that's ever lived in the United States. He's fought the normalization of homosexuality to young people; he's exposed gay activism [and] the radical gay agenda in Massachusetts."
LaBarbera says although Romney appears to have "gotten stronger" on the issue of homosexual "marriage," in an interview with Human Events the GOP presidential hopeful seemed to show support for "sexual orientation" non-discrimination laws
