then i promise i will drop it- first, do you know that he was paid, which would be implied by saying hired? or did he volunteer? not to split hairs, just wondering, and don't know. maybe that would matter to you, maybe it wouldn't. but my other point is that i do not think that the kkk is a fair analogy. i understand that there is fallout from this ex-gay bullshit that is tragic. but to compare that to lynch mobs, i don't think that is fair. i would say, do we have to work with bigots, rednecks? i was on howard dean's side when he made that comment about pick-up trucks and confederate flags. there are a lot of people out there that are bigots that never hurt a fly. i think we should work with them. i have to believe that change is possible. you don't have to change perfect people. you have to reach out to people that are wrong if you ever want them to see the light. i don't say that for obama. i say that for myself. seriously, peace to you.
