Why Do I Think She Has Serious Sexual Issues?

[Howey]

This bitch really just needs to embrace her inner dyke.



And why do all these nutcases have to live in Florida?

The co-founder of the Fort Lauderdale Tea Party compared a pro-gay Republican group to “gay thugs” who have taken over the local Republican party.

In a November email obtained by the Sun-Sentinel, Danita Kilcullen said the Employment Non-Discrimination Act would force employers to “hire someone with orange hair, body/neck/face covered with tattoos, multiple piercings, or a man in a dress … or for that matter, a demonstrative effeminate male or purposeful butch-looking female.” The Log Cabin Republicans, in supporting this legislation, “is a thug organization with only their own ‘special interests’ in play.”

Kilcullen’s email was in response to 10 Republicans joining Democrats to approve ENDA in the Senate. ENDA, whose future remains uncertain in the House of Representatives, outlaws workplace discrimination against sexual orientation or gender identity. Following the vote, Log Cabins praised the Senate and urged Republicans in the House to vote in favor.

Previously, the Tea Party leader has claimed to be a target of Republican attacks because of her anti-gay position. When George Zimmerman was acquitted for murder, Kilcullen responded on Facebook to R&B singer Toni Braxton’s tweets on the matter with, “Yo, girl, you can’t take America’s justice system? Go be an African!!”

She claimed a gay Republican official had hacked her Facebook account.

This bitch really just needs to embrace her inner dyke.

I stand corrected. Maybe she should embrace her inner drag queen.

That organized band of angry, gun-toting, Bible-quoting older white people -- otherwise known as the Tea Party -- has often crossed the bounds of appropriateness as it pushes for its right-wing agenda.

But kicking a police officer with three-inch stiletto high heels?

That's what Boca Raton police say Fort Lauderdale Tea Party founder Danita Kilcullen did after a political rally, prompting a felony charge of battery on a police officer and a booking at the Palm Beach County Jail.

Kilcullen was arrested on October 16, two weeks before the midterm elections that saw two of her favorite candidates, Allen West and Rick Scott, ushered into office. Kilcullen said she told other Tea Party leaders of the arrest, but somehow the arrest never made the news until now.

She is currently preparing to do 20 hours of community service after pleading guilty to trespassing and a lesser charge of misdemeanor resisting arrest.

She told me this morning that she was fighting "injustice" at the time over the use of a hotel bathroom.

Details inside.
On October 16, Kilcullen attended a political event at the Embassy Suites hotel in Boca Raton. It was there that police allege she was intoxicated and disrupted an unspecified private function being held at the hotel.

Kilcullen -- who once told a crowd of Tea Party supporters that a "revolution" was needed in America or they would "die" -- admitted that she had been drinking wine at the political event and acknowledged it played a role in what happened next.
She and fellow Tea Party founder Jack Gillies were set to leave the political event about 10:30 p.m. when she decided to use the bathroom before the drive back to Fort Lauderdale. Because the private party was being held in that area of the hotel, she was told she would have to use the facilities in the main hotel lobby.

That wouldn't do. Kilcullen told me that she didn't want to walk and that she was eventually given the OK to use the small bathroom. While inside, she said that some "girls" attending the private function began "raising hell" outside the door.

"When I finished washing my hands and opened the door, a police officer burst in, grabbed my hand, and pulled me out," said Kilkullen. "It hurt; he grabbed me around my watch, and I was bleeding. I was angry."

Boy was she. According to police, Kilcullen began screaming obscenities at two police officers who were providing security for the private party, including the one who took her out of the bathroom. 

Officer Jason Paul Cohen then got a call on his radio for backup at the hotel. He was advised that "a couple was intoxicated and had interrupted the private function." When Cohen arrived, the hotel manager ordered both Kilcullen and Gillies to leave or they would be arrested for trespassing.

Gillies and Kilcullen walked outside -- and that's when Kilcullen let loose a tirade on the officers that attracted a crowd. "I have a mouth," she concedes.

The hotel manager again told her to leave, and she refused, prompting Cohen to finally arrest her for trespassing. As he placed her in the patrol car, he noticed the black high heels with three-inch stilettos.

"I advised her that I needed to remove the shoes for hers and my safety," Cohen wrote. "I went to remove the shoes when she kicked me twice in the chest. I responded by pushing her farther into the prisoner compartment and using my body weight to prevent her from delivering any more kicks."

Oh, it's ok - she had been drinking, and we know that's an excuse for any right-winger. Not her fault, she just needs sympathy and a job in congress....
