How is this pandering to his base?

Lou Sheldon, head of the conservative Traditional Values Coalition has issued a statement, obtained by PageOneQ, condemning the Federal Marriage Amendment (recently renamed the Marriage Protection Amendment) as "a hollow gesture when it comes to protecting marriage."


:rofl:

4. Exactly. But if this was done in order to motivate his conservative
base to vote in the mid-terms, and they don't even believe him, does this make his speech today null and void? Was it a waste of time?

8. Then what does Lou Sheldon want?
Immediate summary execution for gay men? And for women? Internment camps, with lots of cameras.

9. Even really stupid, evil people aren't THAT stupid
Some can tell when they're being patronized by people who otherwise wouldn't allow them to carry their golf clubs or shine their shoes.
