Miranda Devine wins GLORIA

Miranda Devine homophobic comments have earned her the Golden GLORIA.

The Annaual GLORIAs (Gay and Lesbian Outragous Ridiculous  and Ignorant comments Award) took place at a special ceremony at Parliament House in Sydney last night, hosted by David Marr.

The annual event which  shines the light on outrageous, ignorant and ridiculous comments made about our LGBTIQ citizens is  voted on by the public. This year's nominees include:

Philip Pocock, ACT Election Candidate: “I believe sodomy of man or woman should be regarded as a criminal offence and while people do not have the right to go ‘poofter bashing’, to use colloquial language, they should have the right to discriminate in terms of employment, accommodation etc as they do in dealing with drug addicts etc".

Paris Hilton “Gay guys are the horniest people in the world…. I would be so scared if I were a gay guy. You’ll like, die of AIDS.”

Miranda Devine who wrote that "As a Catholic, I believe the push for same-sex marriage is not about enhancing the lives of gay couples. In countries where it has been legalised, there has been no rush to the altar. The issue is largely symbolic. It is simply a political tool to undermine the last bastion of bourgeois morality - the traditional nuclear family. You only had to see the burning streets of London last week to see the manifestation of a fatherless society".

Devine's recent comments regarding the Proud School's program in which she proclaimed there was no evidence of homophobic bullying in shools in NSW, no doubt assisted in pushing her to the top of the list for the Golden GLORIA last night.

Personally we couldn't think of a more deserving winner.
