36% of Gay Americans Support Romney!!


Are you all going to believe that one in November?

Let's just keep on letting the central tabulator decide our elections.

Eat shit and like it America.

Sure are a lot of enablers that help catapult the propaganda and manufacture consent.

Just because someone is gay, doesn't mean that marriage equality is their top priority. People are complex, not one-dimensional caricatures.

not so swift comparison. first of all you have to consider public union members vs private union members. Secondly, there are many Reagan dem union members.

sure are a lot of people who can't fucking deal with reality.

anyone surprised by the Walker win, wasn't paying attention.

it doesn't happen in every election that we lose. duh. And in this election, prior polling made it clear to anyone paying attention that Walker was going to win. double duh.

and yes, I've read the book, dear. Manufactured consent doesn't de facto mean election fraud.

you have exactly no evidence. not even a smidgeon and so you just make shit up and toss around some word salad.

just brilliant. NOT.

Some traditionally RW professions are unionized such as police and prisons.

Your headline is nonsense and confusing so I am just guessing at what the hell you mean by it.

I believe nothing the media tells us, nothing.



Like the Templar says in Diablo III, there are forces at work here that are beyond our comprehension.


Have a Democratic Day Wisconsin.


And to all of my Union brothers and sisters who voted for Walker yesterday, shame. You are fools. You are too stupid to understand the folly you have brought upon yourselves and the State.

trust me, they exist.
Thankfully, her partner is a Democrat and they live in a blue state. Mom's Repuke votes don't count for much there.

It boggles the damn mind.

eg http://www.politicalese.com/exit-poll-shows-why-walker-won/75789/

The thread starter suffers from the illusion that everyone else has read exactly what they just have, and what's more will still have, even if they start a standalone thread for people to read hours later. And probably wanted to see their name on the 'latest' page, rather than just as a reply to someone else inside a thread.

I don't know the statistics, but maybe a large amount of these 36% are wealthy. They may live in a state where gay marriage is already legal, so their highest priority may be taxes. Romney is promising to keep the Bush tax cuts around and lower taxes for the upper-class.

On the other end of the spectrum, I know a poor woman who is very religious and hates homosexuals. However, she supports Obama because her financial situation is her top issue. She hates that President Obama supports gay marriage, but there are other things that are more important to her.

If you dissect statistics enough, you will find all kinds of stuff that makes you scratch your head.
