You have got to be kidding me..... The Log Cabin morons think that the "party" of Ah-nuld and f**kface Giuliani is admirable?!?!?

Typical of their idiocy. Does no one possess a f**king memory???

I actually have a good friend who is a Log Cabin. We even get along very well. I have a great admiration for them for even attempting the things they do. There is also a book titled 'Party Crasher' by the old exec director of Log Cabin Rich Tafel. Very good reading for those mystified by the 'Gay Republican' tag.

I do as well. And, I have seen him dejected and humiliated. But, I have seen him rise above it and actually convince people I never thought could be convinced that he was not an outcast, degenerate, etc., and then get them to vote for a pro gay issue. So, I think that they/he are doing a good deed and I would HATE to be in that position, esp. considering the Republican party has been under the influence of the religious right for so long

Seriously though... give 'em hell, Harry!

There must be some out there!

About a year ago, I emailed Aaron Brown of CNN to tell him what a ****ty job he was doing. He fired off quite a nasty message to me, which I replied to, only to have him send me another. I swear, the guy doesn't know how to do his job. One time he said in an interview that the media shouldn't question the president. What an idiot.

It's all very amusing, this Gay Republican thing. One on hand I suppose it's charming. Like a Parrakeet dive bombing Godzilla. In the big picture though, it is simply ridiculous. It would be one thing if the bile spewing, reptilian homophobes were the only problem within the Republican Party. But they are the tip of the iceberg. At one time, the party actually had economic policies that could help the country. Ancient history, that. Those policies would date back to the time when big business actually treated employees with respect and decency. However, that is a concept that has been dying a lingering, putrid death for my entire working lifetime.
If these LCR chumps think that if only they can convince the nutbag religious extremists to "love us and hate our sin" than the party will be hunky dory and good for the country - they are far more idiotic than they appear to be.

OUCH

Again, I say any work to try and change minds is good work and these far religious right wingers are apparently, according to my friend who has made some changes in peoples' ways of thinking, more willing to listen to a friendly face than what they deem a crazy screaming liberal - but others will disagree I guess

I'm not interested in changing the minds of idiot, ignorant, blind-faith morons. I just want them to get it over with and die.

A gay Republican is akin to a cockroach putting his stamp of approval on Raid; it's mind-numbingly idiotic.

The fact is, any group of people who would even want to promote the message of "love the sinner but hate the sin" when related to gay human beings is no friend of gays and lesbians; they hinder the cause more than the support it. By promoting that line of thinking, they're simply feeding into more hatred and, IMO, sell out the gay and lesbian community.

My main beef with the Log Cabin Republicans is that instead of using their brains to help gay rights and issues nationwide, they're concentrating all of their efforts on "reforming" a political party that fundamentally disapproves of their lifestyles. With Reagan, the Republican party was hijacked by right-wing religious wackjobs and the problem has only gotten worse over the years. By the time the LCR's came along in 1996, they were so overdue that nothing they did or said could make any sort of difference to the party. Presidential candidates snubbed them, returned their campaign contributions, refused to meet with them, etc. Yet, the LCR's continued to support them, the very same people who are against the way they live their lives and refer to them as degenerates and deviants.

There is no difference between the George Bush of today than the George Bush of 2000. He made his opinion on gay men and women abundantly clear in 2000, yet they endorsed him. Now they praise him for everything else but his stance on gay and lesbian rights. If I was gay, I'd take great offense to that. I thinkthat, in the end, their obsession with reforming the party has clouded their judgement to what the real issues here are and that makes them not only ineffectual, but transparent.

So, the LCR's can kiss my ass. They serve no purpose.
