Honorary Chairman Of Rick Santorum’s Florida Campaign: Gays ‘Make God Want To Vomit’
Mother Jones has a profile up about Reverend O’Neal Dozier, a pastor who runs the Worldwide Christian Centor in Pompano Beach, Florida, who currently serves as the honorary chairman of Rick Santorum‘s Florida campaign. Dozier is a well-known social conservative who obviously shares many of Santorum’s views on issues like gay marriage, but has made rather controversial statements that have raised people’s eyebrows over his connections to the GOP candidate.

In a video posted online, Dozier explains his church preaches “the dangers of Islam and Islamic fascism,” and once proudly boasted that God is “100 percent for capital punishment.” But at the same convention where he made the latter statement, he stated that homosexuality is “so nasty and disgusting that it makes God want to vomit.”
Mother Jones explains how Dozier’s influence with the Florida GOP was refueled thanks to the Tea Party.
[T]he rise of tea party politics gave Dozier a new calling. He campaigned vigorously for Rep. Allen West, an African-American conservative who shares Dozier’s views on gays and Muslims. West has spoken at Worldwide Christian Center’s services, quoting a John Adams letter that claims “our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.” And Dozier can often be found on Federal Highway in Fort Lauderdale, hoisting signs and holding court with the powerful local tea party. “The tea party is a godly ordained party,” he’s said. At one recent event, he expanded the thesis: “God would never ordain a government to take from the rich to give to the poor, you see, so therefore God is not a socialist. God is not a Robin Hood.”
Those sentiments, and Dozier’s revitalized reputation in the black community, seem to have struck the right chord with Santorum’s campaign.

Santorum hosted a forum with Dozier today called the “Sanctity of Life Sunday.” After initially supporting Cain, Dozier shifted his support to Santorum because “he’s not a compromiser” or “a politically correct kind of guy.”
