Gay Republicans Have Brains
While Mitt Romney continues to pander to social conservatives, gay Republicans like Doug Warner are coming out to save the Republican party’s soul:
Doug Warner seems like a stereotypical Republican: Southern, white, male, he served in the military, drives an SUV and likes hunting and fishing. He is also openly gay.Warner’s sexual orientation makes for an awkward fit in a party with a powerful evangelical Christian wing that regards homosexuality as a sin and same-sex marriage as a threat to the traditional family.
“I believe that the approach of the social extremists eliminates our party’s ability to grow in the future,” he told Reuters by phone from his home in Charleston, South Carolina.
…
Gay Republican activists say the party needs to expand its base if it wants to remain relevant by shedding its anti-abortion and anti-gay rights platforms and aiming for the political center on social issues.
While Warner and the Log Cabin Republicans know what’s up, we wonder if that national party will learn from its past mistakes. We hope so, because, as Log Cabin leader Patrick Sammon pointed out, our nation can’t function with one party.
Actually, it can’t really function with two…
The Corporate-preferred right wing has little chance to gain majority status without the southern Dixiecrats and the “social conservatives” aka theocon fundies, voting against the number one bete noir – LGB and divisively T – better known as ” the HOMOsexual agenda and their choice lifestyle easily converted”.
If you are looking for economic conservative principles, the DLC offers you that. If you want freedom, then libertarians like Goldwater and liberals like Kucinich and Gravel want that.
After the UFO sabotage by General Electric’s Tim Russert, former President Carter said that he, in the presence of 25 others, also saw a UFO.
Those on UFOs come to earth searching for intelligent life. Talk about Mission Impossible.
I see that Republican homosexuals are still glossing over their and their party’s homophobia. Color me surprised.

Of all the homophobic comments that I have ever heard that hateful individual utter, that particular comment about dead parents vs gay parents is verbal violence to a felonious degree.
That hate speech is illegal in Canada. It is criminal because it has the potential to incite physical violence.
GOP: Gay Old Party.
