NY Times: Gay Republicans to Run Anti-Bush Ad
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A group of gay Republicans who supported President Bush in 2000 will air a television ad opposing a Bush-backed constitutional amendment that would prohibit gays from marrying.

The 30-second spot by the Log Cabin Republicans shows Vice President Dick Cheney at a debate four years ago saying, ``People should be free to enter into any kind of relationship they want to enter into.'' The ad begins Thursday in several states.

The base from the last election just keeps eroding....

1. The Log Cabins should also air a
television ad announcing how ridiculous they
are even associating themselves with the GOP.

Attention Log Cabins and how many times do I
have to say this?

REPUBLICANS HATE GAY PEOPLE you "morans!!!"

2. I totally agree
I had a friend in college that was gay and she was a Bush Sr. supporter. I didn't get it at all. I said much the same thing as you. "Republicans would lock you all away if they could."

I wonder how she feels about the current administration...

3. The commercial's right on their home page

Impressive, but as J.C. Watt's father said, it's like chickens voting for Colonel Sanders!

7. I just wrote them a letter of support.
A big Democratic kick for the log cabin republicans.

8. Uh, I would like to kick the Log Cabin Republicans
alright! In the grand scheme of things,
what exactly is so admirable about their
letter?

To use that KFC analogy, it's like the chickens
writing Col. Sanders saying they're
upset they're being slaughtered, yet they don't have
an overall problem with the colonel killing chickens
and selling them.

Presumably, when push comes to shove in November,
these Log Cabins will be voting for another lousy
four years of Bush.

11. *pssss,* I understand. That's cool...
if "y'all" like the way the GOP treats
gays, go for it, vote for Bush.

However, let me really quickly list all of the benefits
the GOP has afforded gays over the past four years:

1. ?
2. ?
3. ?
4. ?
5. ?
6. ?
7. ?
8. ?
9. ?
10. ?
