Fred Phelps may have found his soulmate

His name is Ron Hood and he's Ohio's darling of the religious right. The Chamber of Commerce seems to like him as well. That tells me something right there.

I don't think he'll get very far with his most recent anti-gay efforts but he's someone to watch. He's a rabid reactionary and I'm sure his ambitions don't stop at the Ohio state line. He's already campaigning for a larger voice in the Ohio state government.

Here is his agenda in his own words from his web site:

The article from Huffington Post, reprinted in Common Dreams today refers to him as a "no-neck" and says in part:

What is it about Ohio and Florida? There's always trouble brewing. As we know, they've got lots of problems with their voting machines, lots of dead white people who vote and lots of living black people who aren't allowed to. But now they have something else in common: the irrational-- and probably insincere-- fear of gay adoption.

He's another one of these young, "sincere" men whose attractive exterior covers up his slimy interior.

Remember his name.
