Right Wing Watch Defames Conservative Christian Judge Roy Moore and His Supporters
Right Wing Watch said
on September 21, 2017, that it looked into “Roy Moore, the suspended Alabama
chief justice who is now the frontrunner for his state’s open U.S. Senate seat,
and discovered a host of far-right Christian nationalist activists who see
Moore as their best hope for enacting their theocratic vision on a
national stage.”
Among
Moore’s supporters accused by Right Wing Watch are:
* Peter LaBarbera, director of Americans for Truth about
Homosexuality.
* Mat Staver, chairman of the legal group Liberty Counsel and Moore’s attorney.
* Brian Brown, whose National Organization for Marriage
recently endorsed Moore.
* Tim Wildmon of American Family Association.
* Matt Barber, founder of BarbWire.
* Ann Coulter.
* James Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family.
* Julio Severo, a writer
for BarbWire website, whom Right Wing Watch says once he called
for an exorcism of the White House after an American Indian
man speaking at a bisexual community briefing infested it with “homosexual
spirits.”
The
complete list of names blacklisted by Right Wing Watch is
here. (Right Wing
Watch’s defamation was reproduced in the atheist website Brewminate in its piece “Roy Moore’s Crazy Cast
of Endorsements.”)
Not
only all these names are in Right Wing Watch’s blacklist, but they have a special
place in this blacklist. My place is here.
I am not sad that a powerful
left-wing group in the U.S. has blacklisted me. I would be sad if they praised
me.
Who is Right Wing Watch, the
accuser?
Writing
in BarbWire (where I am a contributor too), Rob Pue of Wisconsin Christian News
said that it is the “professed goal” of Right Wing Watch
“to persecute and spread false information about … Christian, pro-family
organizations.”
Who is Roy Moore?
He is
staunchly and publicly an evangelical Christian. He is a former Alabama Supreme
Court Justice. He is a conservative famous for his advocacy for the Ten
Commandments and traditional marriage that has enraged the left. He fought hard
to keep Alabama from being forced to accept gay “marriage.”
I
have very been honored to be invited to add my name as a supporter of Judge Roy
Moore, and I gladly do it, because of his extraordinary conservative and
Christian qualities. It is so hard to find excellent conservative Christian
candidates and when you find one, you cannot afford to lose the opportunity to
support him, even when the Left attacks you for it.
