Ardent supporters of the face eating leopard party cant believe that membership in the face eating leopard party didnt prevent leopards from inevitably showing up to eat their faces too

NEW: The Texas Republican Party has voted to shut out Log Cabin Republicans, an organization of gay Republicans, from participating in their convention. Log Cabin Republicans just said it is shameful they they are being excluded and that Republicans are being narrow-minded.

When will these sorts of groups learn that the fascists they cozy up to will just as soon wipe them out as everyone else they find undesirable

Replying to @sewellchan
Another delegate, Nate Criswell, says weakening the homosexuality language would be caving to political correctness. People appreciate calling a spade a spade. A third delegate mentions dildos and fisting before she is cut off.

On a voice vote, a motion to amend the homosexuality plank fails. Language calling it an abnormal lifestyle choice remains.

I'm guessing a check of their browser histories would be shocking.

I once knew a lot of gay men at work.

(2,962 posts)Depending on who they knew.
They were straight acting types, hate using that term.
They had partners and considered themselves married.
I was a supervisor, so I knew more private information.

Im reporting with @eric_neugeboren from @TexasGOP convention in Houston, where the draft platform calls for requiring students to learn that life begins at fertilization and to listen to live ultrasounds. Story coming soon.

(24,412 posts)And why cant they just belong to the Joe Manchin/Krysten Sinema wing of the party? Sure, they might not be completely enthusiastic about Democrats but at least theyll stand a lesser chance of being hated and could possibly be eliminated under Republicans. I just dont
.get them.
