However, one quick point:

Many closet-homophobes are quick to point the finger at the gay community. Likewise, many people are way too quick to accuse others of homophobia. We need to balance everything out and keep an open mind--we're all Democrats here.

We here need to differentiate between what the Democratic Party should stand for, what the Democrats should do strategically, and what we personally feel about the issue. Only by distinguishing the three will we reach a better discussion.

Anyway, good post.
