Homosexuality is pefectly natural and a common practice among all primates. The relative LACK of homosexuality among humans is purely social & cultural.

Good for you. Lezbo scenes are bloody boring anyway.

When did the Party of Lincoln become the Party of Jefferson Davis?
There seems to be a tendency here to paint all of the GOP with the same brush. The whole GOP did not invite this man to speak on the floor of the house in Minn., one man did. When this ass hat of a peacher finished his speil, the speaker of the House Kurt Zellers {a republican} called a halt to the precedings. The preacher was condemmed for his speach. Rep. Kurt Zellers called for a restart for the days agenda, and called the regular house chaplain to give a new prayer to start the proceedings. Not one Republican lawmaker has stepped forward to defend the controversial preachers prayer, not one. Even the lawmaker who invited the preacher is disowning his actions, claiming he had no idea of the preachers controversial background. That may be a weak and lazy excuse {a point I would agree with}, but I will not go along with a blanket condemnation of the GOP just because one lawmaker is to lazy to do a background check on someone he is sponsering to speak on the house floor. I am the GOP. I donate money to the GOP. Until a libertarian candidate {my true political leaning] comes along that stands a real chance of winning, I have no choice but support the GOP. I do not support the actions of this preacher. He does not speak for me or my party. Lets put the blame where it belongs: The preacher, and one lazy lawmaker.

Yeah but we wanna blame ALL Republicans. It's in our nature. Just like we blame all Christians for the actions of a few, and all Muslims for the actions of a few, and all African-Americans for the actions of a few, and all Mexicans for...well you get the idea

Well, unfortunately the GOP seems to have more than its fair share of poster kids for Planter's

Yes,yes I do. I will admit that I am as guilty as the rest of what you are stating. Not proud, but guilty as charged.

Hmmm... where are all those moderate Republicans on and off the forums to put the hardliner bigots in their place?

I think it's because we're hardwired that way. Yet if a single individual from (put name of group here) does something positive for everyone, we sure aren't gonna give credit to the entire group over it. Quite the opposite really, we'll single out that individual as an exception rather than the norm. Man we're fucking stupid sometimes

I understand what you are saying. I wish I had some wonderful gee whiz answer that would make everything alright again. That I do not have.I do have an answer { but it is going to sound very pathetic because it it pathetic} The answer is: we tend to not pay a lot of attention to politics in Minn. These are the people who voted a vaudvillian professional wrestler as their Govenor. The same people who voted for a comic writer on SNL as their Senator,and then proceeded to take 6 months to determine if in fact he actually won the election The same people who have elected Michelle Bachman as their leader. Are you seeing the pattern here? The people of the U.S. do not tend to take seriously the politics of the State of Minn. Way too many kool-aid drinkers residing there for us to take seriously. I do not want to name names but certain parts of Canada have a reputaion for making outrageous political statements that have the rest of the country shaking thier heads in disbelief. The first that I heard of this incident was on this {a Canadian website}. I travel quite a few websites around the globe on a daily basis. CKA was the only site that I seen reporting on this issue. No major American sites were discussing the issue that I could see. I do not mean to disrespect anyone living in Minn. I am sure that it is a beatiful State. But even the residents of the State of Minn. would have to admit that their politics are on the fringe of most Americans {right or left}.You could state that this lack of reporting of the issue is political laziness on our part. You would be 100% correct in that assumption. For that accusation, I have no defense.

Fair enough. I wonder what the reaction would be if it were a moderate Muslim writing this in response to the frothy mouth blowuppers in Afghanistan (just replace Minn with say, Toronto or Berkley.)
I doubt it would be, 'Fair enough.' Ask Desertdude.

I would agree with what you are saying 100%.I do not need to ask Desertdude. I am a Christian.{not the best,I have a lot of explaining to do} I do not feel as though I have to apologize for every Christian that has blown up an abortion clinic,murdered an abortion Dr.,or protested a veterans funeral. I do not feel that every Catholic has to apologize for every deviant priest.Likewise I do not feel that every Muslim has to apologize for every hardliner in thier midst. That is my belief in this day and age.
I will admit that has not always been the case. After 911, I let emotion get the better of me. I wanted revenge.Thousands of innocent Muslims could have died,and I would not have cared. I would have appaulded. I DID applaud! I was wrong! Many millions of my Countrymen were wrong as well. Emotion is very powerful,and can do a lot of damage to even the best minds on the planet. I am light years from the best minds on the planet.
I cannot take back the wrong that has been done to thousands of Muslims in my country's name. For trying to get UBL and his enablers, I make no excuse. Good riddance and goodbye.!For Iraq, I wish we had a do over. Some calmer heads in my country {as well as other countries} called for restraint. I and most other hotheads would have none of it. Alas today many people are all paying the price for me and my ilks stubborness.The majority in both parties voted for the invasion of Iraq. I will admit my culpability. I was wrong. I will admit that.
However in this particular instance,....I am RIGHT! I have never made a negative statement about the gays. I knew several gays that wre serving in the military while I was in the serving in the military. I could have turned them into the authorities for discharge. Just my hearsay alone would have been enough to get them discharged. I have always tried to maintain a live and let live outlook on the world. Anyone willing to die for thier country is alright in my book. If you are looking for a GOP member to defend the gays, than I will be that voice!
