Nov. 23, 2012 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A leading pro-family group has released  a telling exposé  charging that Dan Savage , the founder of the massively popular ‘ It Gets Better ’ homosexual anti-bullying campaign, is himself the country’s “bully-in-chief.” Savage writes the syndicated sex column   Savage Love , where, in his own words, he “traffics the skeeziest sex practices known to man.” He is famous for his campaign defaming Republican presidential candidate Sen. Rick Santorum by using a technique known as “ Google-bombing ” to associate his name on the search engine with a grotesque aspect of sodomy. In the ‘It Gets Better’ campaign, Savage encouraged people to produce their own short video message to homosexual teens, and won support from celebrities and politicians, including President Obama . By endorsing the campaign, said Savage, Obama was telling “queer kids” that “there’s something wrong with your parents, there’s something wrong with your p...

(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Dan Savage , leader of the “ It Gets Better Project ” against gay bullying in schools, has defended portions of a speech in which he was caught on video castigating the Bible and calling Christians in the audience “pansy-assed.”  The columnist backed off the latter but defended calling the Bible “fulls*** [full of sh**],” saying the statements were “spun” as an attack on Christianity. In a video recently  published online , Savage is seen at a Seattle young journalist conference deriding the teachings of the Bible on sexuality as “bulls***” and harassing teens who left the room in protest. “It’s funny to someone who is on the receiving end of beatings that are justified by the Bible how pansy-assed people react when you push back,” he said. A teacher present at the event told CNN that Savage’s speech “took a real dark, hostile turn,” and was received by the audience as “a very po...
