Wrong People Vote

I wonder what they’ll say down at the voting location in the Baptist Church?

If those Democrats who aren’t comfortable with equal marriage rights or recognition of hate crimes against homosexuals would simply say, “Bigotry is wrong”, they might stand half a chance with this very motivated, very active group of Americans.

LA Times: “The study this spring by San Francisco-based Community Marketing Inc. found that an eye-popping 92.5% of gay men reported that they voted in the 2004 presidential race, and almost 84% said they cast ballots in the 2006 midterm election. Among lesbians, the results were almost as impressive; nearly 91% said they voted in 2004; for the midterm, the figure was 78%.

By comparsion, the Washington-based Committee for the Study of the American Electorate put the turnout for all Americans eligible to vote at about 61% in 2004 and roughly 40% in 2006.”

And, what with the sex scandals involving Republicans and their closeted desires that turn into assaults and harassment, it seems that some of these guys would really be served by having someone, Democrat or not, tell them that it’s o.k. to follow their sexual orientation. Imagine all the suffering that people might be saved.
