Poll question: Who will get the self-hating, repressed homosexual vote?
We all know that the nice gay people vote Democratic.

7. I beg your pardon?
Is that supposed to be funny? If so, you missed. If not, shame on you.

2. Unfortunately, some nice gay people who are NOT repressed
...are still completely snowed by BFEE's PR and marketing.

5. I find that impossible to understand.
Why would someone support an administration so hostile to them?

6. I don't understand it either

...but they seem to think the * administration isn't that hostile toward G/L/B/T folk.

Or they think with their wallets and, again, believe the marketing campaign that tells them they're better off with a huge Republican national debt but nothing to show for all that money (aside from the hostility of all the rest of the world and thousands dead) than with reasonable taxation and desperately needed government services and programs.

8. gay folks who vote for BC, in my opinion, don't care about
anyone but themselves. IMO they live in cocoons. In fortified bunkers -- with tightly controlled media access. Because god forbid they should allow anyone the opportunity to challenge them to think.

9. Ah, there's the rub!
They actually believe they are thinking and intelligent people (and many are) and that we've been sold a bill of goods.

4. You missed one.
Edited on Fri Aug-06-04 09:34 AM by Bertha Venation
You've made your point. Now please put up "Kerry/Edwards" so I can vote. Many Republicans (orientation is moot) actually do allow their consciences to win out over their pocketbooks every now and then. I know a few.

edit: forgot to say "please." Sorry.
