All my gay ex-foster parents live in Texas

The Texas House has decided that loving your foster child isn't enough anymore:

Texas would become the only state to ban homosexuals and bisexuals from becoming foster parents under legislation passed today by the House.

The ban was an amendment tacked on to a bill that would overhaul the state's troubled Child Protective Services agency. The measure now goes to the Senate, which has approved a version of the CPS bill but not the foster parent amendment.

"It is our responsibility to make sure that we protect our most vulnerable children and I don't think we are doing that if we allow a foster parent that is homosexual or bisexual," said the author of the amendment added late Tuesday, Republican Rep. Robert Talton of Pasadena.

I thought that myself as I watched an Animal Planet special on homosexuals. They circled that pack of humans and picked off the slower children like lions on a gazelle. It was quite beautiful in its savagery, but I'm glad to see Texas finally moving to keep even the tamer, more loving gays away from our kids. And I'm waiting for the Texas law that prevents lions from adopting children as well.

Once again we witness from Republicans that gay bashing is much more important that finding a loving and nuturing home for children. And the law is retroactive as well, meaning CPS can come and tear children out of warm and happy homes simply because the parent is gay.
