Pennsylvania State Senator Refuses To Apologize For His Remarks About Gays: ‘We’re Allowing Them To Exist’
Pennsylvania State Senator Refuses To Apologize For His Remarks About Gays: ‘We’re Allowing Them To Exist’
During a June 19 radio debate, Pennsylvania State Sen. John Eichelberger (R) repeatedly asserted that same-sex marriage is wrong, “dysfunctional,” and would lead to “polygamy, marrying younger people.” (Eichelberger is “sponsoring a Constitutional amendment to redefine marriage as between a man and a woman.”) But perhaps his most shocking comments came when fellow lawmaker Sen. Daylin Leach (D) asked him how gay men and women should be treated:
Leach: Should our only policy towards [same-sex] couples be one of punishment, to somehow prove that they’ve done something wrong?
Eichelberger: They’re not being punished. We’re allowing them to exist, and do what every American can do. We’re just not rewarding them with any special designation.
Listen to excerpts of the debate here:
LGBT activists were incensed by Eichelberger’s comments, calling on him to apologize for his “insensitive remarks.” Yesterday, gay and straight protesters briefly met with Eichelberger, “after [he tried] ducking them twice.” They presented him with 5,000 signed petitions asking him to apologize. Eichelberger refused to do so:
EICHELBERGER: You know, the public process is very important in this country. That’s what my bill does. It allows the public to make a decision, which I think is a healthy thing. So I appreciate your support of at least that concept.
SPEAKER: So are you going to apologize to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender people in Pennsylvania — and all the people in Pennsylvania for those comments about allowing to exist and calling them dysfunctional.
EICHELBERGER: No, I think you know my answer to that. Thank you very much.
Watch it:
John Morgan of the Pennsylvania Progressive, who was at the Eichelberger confrontation and captured the exchange on video, said, “The fact he knew we would be at his office at noon and chose not to be there showed his cowardice. It was not until we waited an hour and returned that his receptionist allowed us a few minutes with the Senator in an additional hour.”
Eichelberger has said that his June 19 remarks have been taken out of context. ThinkProgress contacted the senator’s office, asking for clarification and whether he would be issuing an apology. Chief of staff Jason High simply said that the Eichelberger “has already clarified his statement in multiple media outlets.” He pointed us to a June 27 Altoona Mirror story. However, while Eichelberger repeatedly says that his comments are being misinterpreted, nowhere in that article does he shed any more light onto what he actually meant:
He [Eichelberger] said members of Keystone Progress have taken what he said out of context. He said Thursday afternoon he has no intention of taking back or apologizing for anything he stated during the discussion with Leach about heterosexual marriage, bigamy, polygamy, other different forms of marriage and procreation. … Eichelberger said Morrill and his group are purposefully misinterpreting his comment.
Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents, an LGBT blog in Pennsylvania, writes, “It is one thing to disapprove of my identity or believe it is a choice, but quite another thing to suggest that I am permitted to exist in spite of my identity. Should I be grateful to Senator Eichelberger for not condoning someone taking away my existence?”

June 30th, 2009 at 5:34 pmWOW!! A Christian Terrorist for sure.
June 30th, 2009 at 5:35 pmI think we should allow the bastard to go directly to jail and, voters in his district, PLEASE VOTE THE ASS OUT OF OFFICE!
June 30th, 2009 at 5:36 pm“We’re allowing them to exist, and do what every American can do.”
I dare say I’m more conservative on the issue than 75% of the folks on this blog (not counting the trolls, that is).
Even then, I have to admit that inequities clearly exist. The gays can’t “do what every American can do.” The statement is on the callous and/or inane level of “Let them eat cake.”
June 30th, 2009 at 5:38 pmPlease, Dear God, do not let this man contribute to the gene pool. I beg of You.
June 30th, 2009 at 5:39 pmI think he is lucky that he gets to exist!How did this Wing Nut ever get elected,the hypocrisy and bigotry is at a despicable high and hopefully waning.People like him are a disgrace to to humanity.
June 30th, 2009 at 5:41 pmI’m sorry but I don’t think when you say you allow a group of people to exist that there is anyway to take it out of context.
June 30th, 2009 at 5:41 pmThis message has been brought to you by the Republic party, dumber than a box of hammers. And my apologies to the hammers, ’cause they’re useful tools.
June 30th, 2009 at 5:44 pmHi spencers mom, you and I both live in eastern PA. Our state will vote this piece of sht out. How do people like this get elected in the first place?
June 30th, 2009 at 5:45 pmI’m sorry sir, I hadn’t realized there was a class of Americans who decided who got to exist. I sort of thought all Americans believed in the Constitution that said all men were created equal.
Can I clean that white hood for you?
June 30th, 2009 at 5:47 pmI guess what Eichelberger actually might have said was: I’d be a real dooshbag if I said we’re allowing them to exist, and do what every American can do. I’d be an ever bigger dooshbag to say we’re just not rewarding them with any special designation.
June 30th, 2009 at 5:48 pm“Marriage is between two adult people.”
Is it really that hard to say, republicons?
June 30th, 2009 at 5:50 pmthe “we’re allowing them to exist” comment is disturbing
i’m not going to say it sounds like he’s advocating violence… but it seems pretty clear that in Eichelberger’s ideal world homosexuals would not be allowed to exist
this is pretty sick
nevermind the fact that there isn’t any constitutional argument against gay marriage.
the only arguments that exist against it are religious ones and we have a clearly stated separation of church and state.
its a shame that even public officials choose to ignore the constitution and how the rights put forth in it apply to all americans (sexual preference is irrelevant)
June 30th, 2009 at 5:51 pmHeil Hitler
June 30th, 2009 at 5:51 pmToo bad this idiot can’t count to Fourteen.
June 30th, 2009 at 5:51 pmHe may be onto something with his “let the public make a decision” plan. I am thinking about sponsoring a constitutional amenmdment that would allow a majority of the voters in my state to decree that Republicans are a deviant class of humans, to require all card carrying Republicans to be locked up and to authorize the state to dissect a sufficient number of Republicans to allow the scientists to determine the cause of this aberrant behavior and to develop a cure. That would be fine with this dickhead because it “let the public make a decision” right?
June 30th, 2009 at 5:52 pmIDIOT: We’re allowing them to exist, and do what every American can do. We’re just not rewarding them with any special designation.
Thanks for letting teh gays exist, Senator Eek. That mighty thoughty of ya.
Even a second grader can understand (but not most trolls) that if a gay person is not allowed by his/her government to marry, then that person is not being afforded full rights as a citizen.
Giving teh gays the exact same rights I am entitled to at this very moment, is not giving them any “special designation.”
PA, please vote out this moron.

People like this do not understand that there was a reason adjectives and modifiers were not included in the Constitution. The preamble says, unequivocally, that all men are created equal. Modern interpretation says men means people, regardless of rhetoric to the contrary.
It didn’t say except for anywhere.
June 30th, 2009 at 6:00 pmWho does he think he is fooling when he says his comments were taken out of context? Any reasonable person understands the import of his statements. And that import in repugnant.
June 30th, 2009 at 6:01 pmThe GOP exists for violence and hate – nothing else, well maybe to enrichment themselves, but not you or the country.
They are a cult. A small, thuggish, uninformed cult.
June 30th, 2009 at 6:02 pmDon’t you agree FML? I bet you do.
I am not sure we should be letting Eichelberger exist because of his bias against homosexuals.
If that sounds like I am advocating the murder of Eichelberger, perhaps it’s because Eichelberger is advocating murder of homosexuals.
Eichelberger has committed the crime of “inciting violence”. He should resign from his position immediately or be forcibly removed by his constituents.
I wonder what the process is in PA for removing a criminal representative?
June 30th, 2009 at 6:03 pmGive a conservative enough rope… and he’ll start looking for “deviants” to hang. He’s probably second-generation American, with a name like that, and wishes for the day when the glorious methods of the Fatherland can be brought here, to solve “the gay problem.”
June 30th, 2009 at 6:09 pmNot a single repiggie stood up to condemn this clown’s remarks.
That whole party is worthless garbage.
Please don’t vote for any of that trash, even for local office.
June 30th, 2009 at 6:10 pmThey are all in on this stuff.
Thank you oh so very much, Senator Sanctimonious, for restraining your murderous temptation toward a group of the human race, for your kindness shines through that small hole in that blackened, puss-filled heart.
June 30th, 2009 at 6:18 pmIt’s simple, “this guy is an a%%hole”.
June 30th, 2009 at 6:22 pmMaybe he should consider himself lucky he is allowed to exist.
(I am not suggesting anything)
I remember KayinMaine posted a couple youtube videos of western pennsylvanians shouting their obscenities (”commie fgt!”) at people protesting their abhorrent views as they entered a McCain rally.
They know how to install a reflection of themselves in the representative body, don’t they?
June 30th, 2009 at 6:25 pmHe should meet up with Sally Kern. They could flagellate each other nicely.
June 30th, 2009 at 6:25 pmEICHELBERGER: You know, the public process is very important in this country. That’s what my bill does. It allows the public to make a decision, which I think is a healthy thing.
Allowing a simple majority to “make a decision” on a civil rights issue is not a “healthy thing” , Assh0leberger …….
June 30th, 2009 at 6:35 pmBarfly, you just barely beat me to it. “Eichelberger” is such a nice, Teutonic name. I’m sure that, with his ancestry, he has a “final solution” in mind for teh Gay Problem. SEIG HEIL!!
June 30th, 2009 at 6:38 pmOh, thank you, Eichelberger, for not killing every gay person! You’re a real credit to your state. Now if only you could get the doctor murderers on board…

June 30th, 2009 at 6:52 pmAnother bigot espousing ‘family values;’ as long as your family is White, hetero and Republican.
For Chrissakes GOP, it’s 2009; there’s no pinko, Commie, Hippie, queer threat out there.
The only thing you have to fear is another Republican administration.
June 30th, 2009 at 6:53 pmRepublicans are in favor of the classical concept of marriage: a wife, many sons and daughters, a mistress to replace the wife when she becomes wrinkled, and gay hookers to satisfy their real desires.
June 30th, 2009 at 7:24 pmSince voters allow this hateful, homophobic creep to exist, I say– throw him out. He does not represent all his constituents, just the bigoted ones.
June 30th, 2009 at 7:27 pmRepubs hate so many people.
And where are the “conservatives”, the Repubs, the Fox “news” hysterics, who should attack this man for these hateful comments? Allowing people to exist??? If anything ever sounded like a Hitler clone, it’s Eichelberger.
June 30th, 2009 at 7:31 pmThe conservatives, Repubs and Fox like to hide behind the first amendment when they are espousing hate speech. Billo and Dr. Tiller are the perfect example. Billo hides behind the first amendment when talking about Tiller, but in the same program he complained about Letterman’s comments and specifically stated “Comedians are accountable for their words.” The conservatives, Repubs and Fox refuse to see any culpability for stirring up people with their hate speech while they denounce other people’s “hate speech.”
June 30th, 2009 at 7:41 pmWow! What a first rate idiot. He is downing his friends, family and his constituents.
What would he suggest we do with people that are harmless?
June 30th, 2009 at 7:46 pmI suggest we set up a national campaign fund with one goal: to run candidates or ads against any and all such persons, regardless of state, party or office.
June 30th, 2009 at 7:55 pmThis man is a disgrace to humanity.
June 30th, 2009 at 8:08 pmThe Nazis “allowed” Jews to exist, until they decided to no longer “allow” them.
June 30th, 2009 at 8:16 pmAs a gay person, I can’t believe I’m mitigating any criticism this jerk really deserves, but here goes: as presumptuous and awful as “allowing to exist” is, he’s specifically talking about gay relationships, not individuals.
This seems a minor difference, but it’s not.
For a gay individual, it sounds murderous. When it’s gay relationships, I think in his strangled, garbled inarticulateness, he’s actually saying, “We all know gay relationships exist, of course we’re not going to do anything about it, but marriage, no. ”
I’m not excusing his obvious hate and bigotry- I’m saying from experience that even though he’s inarticulate, it would be picking the wrong battle to intentionally assume the worst. Our side has to almost legalistically give the benefit of the doubt, because taking what he said too literally- allowing gay people to exist versus relationships- are two very different things.
That said, he’s obviously a hateful jerk. But accusing him of some murderous eliminationism would be wrong- I honestly don’t think he meant that.
June 30th, 2009 at 8:39 pmWhy is it that left-wing do-badders seem always to have second careers in academia?
Because all the burger-flipping positions have been filled by racist Righties?
June 30th, 2009 at 8:54 pmFreepMarketWingnut,
Other than the fact that your post it totally off topic, learning to think in college is not radical. Regardless of what your course of study is, the ultimate goal is to teach you to think.
Your lack of a college education makes you a perfect target for wingnut propaganda.

I don’t think it is asking too much to ask our representatives to be a little more articulate than most people. His comments are inexcusable and no amount of mitigation can reduce the impact. Words are like Pandora’s box; once you let them out, you can’t take them back.
June 30th, 2009 at 8:57 pmI listened to this show and Eichleberger stated that same gender marriage was all about having sex. He couldn’t defend his position. All he could focus on was sex. Like people are going to stop having sex if they are not married.
Proud to say that the Democratic Party of Berks County PA has endorsed a proposal Senator Daylan Leach is introducing that would permit same sex marriage in Pennsylvania.
June 30th, 2009 at 9:04 pmI’m so effing glad I’m being allowed to exist. Whatever would I do without the benevolence of my overseers. I heard today that I may be allowed to read and think for myself soon…oh praise Straight People, Halle-Fook-Ya!!
Pfft! Pure dribble. The GOP is Speeding towards Death at this rate.
June 30th, 2009 at 9:05 pmFrom personal experience, the better blog is Keystone Progressive. The Pennsylvania Progressive can get a bit weird at times and doesn’t always post truthful facts.

Not that it’s relevant to the story, which is about a deeply disturbed and apparently closeted individual whose very demeanor is a silent scream for help from the hell that is his cloistered identity.

July 1st, 2009 at 2:48 amGuys like this are such raging closet cases. Like Ted Haggard and so many others before him, he will end up resigning. It’s just a matter of how many hustlers and how much meth.
July 1st, 2009 at 7:06 amWell there is another Pennsylvania Senator that won’t be back. Pennsylvania is half Liberal and half conservative. Trust me there is rednecks here in PA. My husband works in Lancaster, and stopped to get gas before heading home. There were an interracial couple walking on the opposite side of the road… He told my husband to take his rig to hit people like that… So if there is a gay couple walking I would presume he would take his gun and kill them… Not joking!
I have a gay friend and he is the nicest person and he is a better friend than some straigt friends….
July 1st, 2009 at 7:18 amHe got elected because he is from the western part of the PA. The people that voted for him are the ones that cling to their guns and jesus.
July 1st, 2009 at 7:37 amDawn1954 – You are so right about Pennsylvania. I’m from southeastern PA which is mostly blue but Lancaster is in the “Pennsyltucky” part of PA. Yes, these rednecks are filled with hate, yet they sing praises to jesus on Sundays.
July 1st, 2009 at 7:50 amPeople don’t realize how nice America is not to engage in gay genocide.
July 1st, 2009 at 7:53 amEichelberger is prattling the usual nonsense from his holy roller Sunday School class.
Evangelicalism has degenerated even further these past few years to a violence-loving survivalist cult. It is a danger and a menace to our civil society.
July 1st, 2009 at 8:36 amSince nothing surprises me any more, I would not be surprised to find that Eichelberger (or is that Reichelberger) is Rick Santorum’s gay lover and they will be out of the closet soon.
Ye gods!

July 1st, 2009 at 10:37 amHey, Freepmarket;
Those “people of faith” in the anti-abortion movement are committing acts of murder, arson, menacing, and vandalism on a regular basis. They are, _by their actions_ nothing more than domestic terrorists, but you’ll never see the NSA list them as such, no matter how many terrorist acts they commit.
July 1st, 2009 at 12:55 pmAll I can say is to reiterate my political philosophy: I want the government out of my bedroom, out of my billfold and off of my back. If I’m not hurting anyone else (and I don’t include hurt feelings) then leave me the [expletive deleted] alone.
Many someones in PA obviously voted this man into office. I hope they vote him out by a HUGE margin at the very next opportunity. We do allow bigots to exist though, so don’t go overboard on him.
July 1st, 2009 at 2:06 pmAs someone who lived thru WWII I am reminded of two groups … the Jews in Europe who were not allowed to exist and the Nazi regime who did not allow them to exist.
Which group are you a descendant of, Senator Eichelberger ?
July 1st, 2009 at 2:17 pmJust a nit – I think he says “Now you know my answer to that.”
That doesn’t change the meaning of the statement in the slightest, though.
July 1st, 2009 at 3:17 pmI suspect the guy comes from somewhere in the center of the state. As has been stated ad nauseum, those people are vicious bigots.
As for the question of whether the LGBT should be “grateful” for this jerk “allowing them to exist,” that reflects on a sermon I once heard at a church in Texas where the minister actually said that if we didn’t kill the gays, God would punish us.
July 1st, 2009 at 9:25 pmAbove someone said what would Jesus do. Anyone ever heard of Sodom and Gomorrah and how God rained down fire and brimstone on the wicked. Homosexuality is a sin against God and humanity. AIDS is a modern day fire and brimstone. So to answer that question… that is how Jesus would handle it.
July 1st, 2009 at 10:00 pmPoor jerzeydevil, pitiful troll it is, apparently doesn’t know the difference between the Old Testament and the New Testament.
If you’re going to claim you’re an expert on God’s will, you really should know what the Hell you’re talking about.
Jesus ALWAYS sided with the oppressed, never the oppressors, and in the case of reply #84, jd-or is that notorious inbred Fred Phelps-is an oppressor.
Read Matthew 23, Christ is directly addressing the Modern Day Pharisees AKA knuckle-dragging religious right phonies & hypocrites like jd.
Loser.
July 2nd, 2009 at 1:02 amI am also from Pennsylvania, about 70 miles south of Pittsburgh. Let me tell you we have some DOOZIES around here.Rick Santorum is from around Pittsburgh, so we do have our share of right wing crazies. And I could almost laugh at this shmuck and how out of touch he is. But I am more scared than anything. My oldest child and only son is 22 years old, intelligent, witty and thoughtful. He also happens to be homosexual. We once had a man follow my son back to our car after he left a convenience store where he used the restroom ( we were coming home from a trip). This man tried to assault my son through our car window and called me racial slurs, all because he suspected my son gay because he had long hair and flip flops on….I kid you not, for this man wearing flip flops if you are a male means you are gay…..HUH?
July 2nd, 2009 at 2:59 amWhat I am trying to get at is….there are plenty of right wing religous nutjobs in this state. With all of the hate crimes being committed lately, this scares me in a very personal way. Some whacko may listen to this SO CALLED public servant get outraged and decide that my son does not deserve to “exist”!! How many people need to be killed before we make these people accountable for their words!!
Finally, somoeone with balls. Im glad he said what he said, and im glad he wont apologize for it. Why should us normal heterosexual people apologize for offending queers and tree huggers when they dont need to apologize for their twisted views offending the rest of us? This world is sick. Real marriage is between a man and a woman. This guy is one of very few poloticians who has the balls and the spine to stand up for what he believes in and not just agree with the majority to get a vote. This guy needs to be president. God knows Obama was not a good choice. And to those of you who said the senator owned a white hood and was racist, since when does being gay have anything to do with race? That just shows how shallow and stupid you are. I hope that more people that share my views step up to run this country. YOu no good bleeding heart civil rights democrats are ruining this country.
July 3rd, 2009 at 8:21 amIf we didnt have all these sick twisted people in this country we would be ok. What happened to the days of hardworking men taking care of their wives and families? Now we have little queers running around pushing their opinions on everyone and getting upset when real american people such as myself refuse to accept it. If you want to be a dirty fagot, you go right ahead, but dont run around tryin to get anyone to agree with you. Mind your own business. The rest of us have more important things to deal with than your sexuality. If you dont want to get offended or be segregated from us normal people than keep your mouth shut and be gay behind closed doors. Oh and right wing extremists? well if it werent for us this country would have already burned in hell. Its going to anyway, thanks in part to your sick twisted idea of society.
July 3rd, 2009 at 8:27 amHEY REPLY NUMBER 85. YOUR A MORON. NUMBER 84 IS EXACTLY RIGHT IN WHAT HE SAID. YOU, YOUR AN IDIOT. HOW CAN YOU CLAIM TO KNOW EVEN ONE THING ABOUT THE HOLY BIBLE YET BE SO WRONG IN WHAT YOU SAID. YOUR JUST TOO SCARED TO ADMIT THAT YOUR LIFESTYLE IS WRONG. AND THAT THE SENATOR IS RIGHT. MAYBE SOME HOMOSEXUAL CLEANSING IS IN ORDER

If you dont want to get offended or be segregated from us normal people than keep your mouth shut and be gay behind closed doors.” If your f-ing church would keep it’s nose out of our business, out of our bedrooms and out of our government we would be more than happy to shut our mouths shut and live our lives out of your sight. BUT religious leaders think it’s their duty to save us, deny us our rights as American citizens and make us second class citizens. Our activism is in response to your religious leaders’ oppression.
Lastly: The Lord is my Sheppard, he knows I’m gay. He created me. I don’t answer to your church! Come our day of reckoning we all will have to answer for our trespasses. Even you! Hatred is not a Christian value.
