Derbyshire on homosexuality By Lawrence Auster

In John Derbyshire’s latest shift to the left (and how those shifts have multiplied since he came out as an atheist a few months ago), the former scourge of the homosexuals and bête noire of Andrew Sullivan now says that homosexuality is not a problem for society, with the single exception of the armed forces.
So now two regulars at NRO, senior editor Ramesh Ponnuru and John Derbyshire (who is even afforded his own “Derb Radio” page at the NRO site to spread his liberal and atheist ideas), pretty much have the bases of homosexual liberation covered. Ponnuru says homosexuality should be accepted in the U.S. military. Derbyshire says it should be accepted it in the rest of society.

I exposed Ponnuru’s readiness to surrender to the homosexual agenda regarding same sex “marriage” in 2003. I also showed how he took the liberal position that all conservative arguments against same sex marriage were bigoted. Ponnuru and Jonah Goldberg protested my characterization of Ponnuru’s position, but if you read the entire thread, particularly my reply to Goldberg, you will see that their defense falls apart.
