Anti-Bully Critic Cory Bernardi Upset Over Opposition Leader’s Name Calling

Cory Bernardi has gone full hypocrite today, lambasting Bill Shorten for ‘name calling’ over the Opposition leader calling the noted anti-LGBTQI senator a homophobe. Nevermind Shorten only made the comment after Bernardi crashed his press conference and called Shorten a fraud. Talk about a short memory.

While Bernardi hasn’t denied the claim (his voting record in the Senate would make that difficult), he was very upset by it. Just watch him get all blubbery when he tries to say homophobe mode in the video below.

The most hypocritical part of all this, of course, is that as upset as Bernardi is about being called names himself, he is currently opposing a program to protect gay high school students from bullying and discrimination. 

Having successfully petitioned the government into investigating the Safe School Coalition, Bernardi used classic scare tactics to undermine the program’s work. Accusing it of indoctrinating children, Bernardi equates preaching tolerance to “propaganda,” pushing a “social engineering agenda” advanced by LGBTI activists.

This despite the fact he supports the $245 million School Chaplaincy Program, that despite claims of chaplains being banned from proselytizing has shown incidents of promoting anti-LGBTQI view points.

Meanwhile the internet, never really huge fans of hypocritical politicians, have served Bernardi up with a little plate of piping hot revenge in the form of a fake website corybernardi.com.au.  Sporting the slogan “Compassion Lives Here” over a picture of an LGBTQI flag, it is a far cry from the hate filled encyclopedia of conservatism that is Bernardi’s actual website… which you will have to find for yourself as we certainly aren’t linking to it.
