Let's face it:  Gay people aren't as good as straights.  But mostly just Martinus.  He's single-handly holding back his cause.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

I ran into a GOP-loving gay man in the heart of the Castro last night. :o
He also loves Hillary. :wub:

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

So when's the wedding?

Bitch. <_<

Stating that one is a Republican in the Castro is considered much more vulgar than going down on someone in public.

I just think it's a matter of dignity and self-respect, that's all. I don't think being gay is incompatible with the conservative ideology per se - I wouldn't for example mind a gay person voting for the UK tories today. But a gay person supporting the GOP in this day and age is like a black person supporting a segregationist in the 1960s - that's just something you don't do if you have any self respect. It's not about being partisan, it's not about one-issue-voting, it's simply about not giving your support to someone who considers you a second class citizen.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Isn't it possible for a person to not see politics solely as a matter of group identity?

I think it's a matter of the Log Cabin Republicans believing in the basic precepts of the conservative movement and wish to reform from within and thus remain engaged with the movement.

Being denied a right to marry a person you love or to perform certain jobs (e.g. serving in a military) because of a person you love is hardly "solely a matter of group identity". It's about your civil rights.

I'm seriously unsure if you are just thoughtless or ignorant.

I'd forgotten about Obama the great defender of gay marriage.
