Running Against Sodom and Osama: The Christian Right, Values Voters, and the Culture Wars in 2006, a newly released report from Political Research Associates, lays out the Christian Right’s midterm electoral strategy of demonizing gay men and lesbians and defining same sex marriage as a domestic threat parallel to the external one posed by “Islamofascists.”
The Public Eye, a quarterly published by Political Research Associates covering the US Right, is a finalist for the 2006 Utne Independent Press Award in the category of General Excellence (newsletters).
The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, Political Research Associates, American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts and Jewish Alliance for Law and Social Action call on Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney to condemn bigoted statements made by Christian Right leaders during a September “Values Voters Summit” at which Romney was a featured speaker. Romney is scheduled to give a video address at the October 15, 2006 “Liberty Sunday” electoral rally at Tremont Temple Baptist Church in downtown Boston (7:00 pm). The event is sponsored by the Family Research Council, the same group that sponsored the September summit.
