Radio host warns parents over gay hospital workers
http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-504763_162-20125950-10391704/radio-host-warns-parents-over-gay-hospital-workers/

(CBS) Do gay doctors pose a threat to hospitalized kids? Linda Harvey apparently thinks so. On a recent broadcast, the conservative Christian radio host urged parents to "think long and hard" about whether kids should be cared for by hospital workers who "proclaim a homosexual lifestyle."



To make her point, Harvey offered isteners a scenario: "Let's say your 11-year-old has broken her leg rather badly and needs to be in the hospital a few days. Which would you prefer - a nurse who's proud of her lesbianism, who has rainbow identifiers on her work clothing, or a nurse who does not?"


Just who is Linda Harvey? She's a Columbus, Ohio-based former executive of Ohio State University Hospitals and the founder of a "Christian pro-family organization" called Mission:America, according to the organization's website.

3. Like I said in GD
I don't broadcast it,but I don't hide my genetics.I talk about my family,their family,my pets,their pets.It's called "Humanity".If they ask about my partner,I simply say she's a teacher.I always want my glbt patients to know they have an accepting caregiver,and that they can feel free to show the expression of love one has for a family member.

4. Reminds me of an episode of 'All In The Family'
Archie was in the hospital and didn't want to get cared for by a black nurse. Lo and behold, the black nurse was the only person with the right blood type to give Archie a transfusion. It was pretty good.

Bigots gotta be bigots, I guess.

5. Idiot...then the outlet has the audacity to frame it as a viable debate?
"Do you think gay doctors pose a threat?"

What crap...!!

This Woman needs to have her broadcaster's license revoked...the FCC use to be stewards of the airwaves....and at some point this kind of crappy rhetoric needs to be removed from public airwaves...

I all for ending hate speech...and that is definitely hate speech...
