Richard Raddon...quote of the day!



For the past two weeks - since news broke that Richard Raddon contributed $1500.00 in favor of the Proposition 8 initiative - there has been a flurry of activity at my blog site at Wordpress where I posted an article on despicable behaviour I encountered at the hands of Raddon a few months ago.

When Mr. Raddon resigned his post - in spite of the fact a handful of Board Members at the Los Angeles Film Festival encouraged him to remain on as Director (Don Cheadle, included) - the subject heated up with accusations flying back and forth between the Mormons, the gays, and the Blacks!

Did I forget anyone?

At my blogsite at wordpress, a number of pro-active anti-Proposition 8 folks have been posting comments non-stop.

I've been publishing them as part of the "healing" process.

Today, I laughed when one fellow attempted to post a comment (anonymously, of course!) in which he made the sweeping comment that everyone who posted on the issue - or visited the site to peruse the article - was a bigot!

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!

Andre Gide once said:

"The true hypocrite is the one who ceases to perceive his deception, the one who lies with sincerity."
