I would like to update on my Gay Fund .
I made a promise to myself a few months back.I would donate a dime for every homophobic statement I have heard.On blogs ,Tv ,in person and on poker stars (sorry but I loveeee texas hold em )
The grand total has been (sadly) 178.50.
I just got through rounding it off to 180.00 and giving it to pflag.

4. It helps with the anger actually.
I was getting rather livid after the 2004 election being "won" on gay bashing.This was my way of trying to deal with that anger.My husband donated to Human Rights Camp.Even he the republican was sickened by all the hate.

7. He's in denial.
When he's ready, maybe he'll come out of the republican closet.

9. You should announce your campaign publicly

Maybe those hateful whackjobs will mind their tongues if they know it will only add to the coffers of the "gay agenda".
