For those of you who don't recognize the name, Tony Dungy is the Coach of the Indiana Colts. And if you don't follow sports, they're headed to Miami for the Super Bowl.
So a fellow blogger, Bill Brown, has posted here about Coach Dungy being honored at a Banquet of the Indiana Family Institute. Reverend James Dobson from Focus on the Family supports IFI as an affiliated Family Policy Council. You remember Dobson, don't you? He's the right winger who thinks that John McCain is a liberal. This guy is probably does coffee with Darth Vader himself.
Why would Tony Dungy want to be honored by such an organization? These organizations exist to "protect the home" and "protect the family". This is what a PR professional came up with to avoid saying that they hate gays and lesbians. In other words, they only want to protect SOME families. There are millions of same sex families in our country. It perplexes me why there is even an argument about whether or not they deserve the same rights, privileges, and protections as other families. Does Tony Dungy support discriminating against them? How about the ownership of the Indiana Colts? We should ask.
