They are so desperate they are bringing up the Gay Issue again
just heard on AAR that the bush administration is dusting off the playbook again and bringing up the gays again, to rally their base. Also listen to Sam Seder he is talking about it also. Funny, how they bring up gays, alot of their staff are going to find themselves without jobs. Desperate measures for desperate men.

1. I guess...
...if fear of terrorists warnings didn't do it, homophobia is the next topic on the GOPerv hit list. :shrug: They did not do too well with the attack on blacks or the handicapped. So...it seems they are just going down the "knee-jerk response" list on what appeals to Repuke neocon voters. Seems like the Repukes are made up of:

White
Male
Straight
Christian
Born again
War Mongering
Jogging
Corp Execs

and not much else.

2. They've gone to the homophobia well once too often, I think....
And I think that well has just about run dry.

3. You know why the Republicans oppose gay marriage?
It narrows the field.

4. The republicans have gone to fail-safe.
The ultimate whipping post - gay Americans!
Closet cases Drudge and Mehlman will no doubt crack the whips of hatred and inuendo (ironic isn't it?).
Falwell, Dobson, Parsley, and Robertson will dust off the "Sodom and Gomorrah" card.
"If democrats gain control of congress, all the virile husbands will leave their wives and have permanent trysts with gay men soon. Alas! Merca! You must vote republican. Save our country.!! Amen. Amen."
On Monday Nov. 6th - watch for Geo Bush to play this card. It will be his last ditch effort to save the PNAC from going down in flames.
