143. "You have no right to make that choice for them." Oh yes I do. Yes I do.
In this case... I'll just have to live with someone shouting at me how wrong I am. I can live with it. If it's wrong... then two wrongs make a right. I'll be satisfied and unashamed and unapologetic about it.

You (the gay politician) use your power to attack me... limit my rights... deny me equal protection? I'll attack you back. Sorry, life's like that. You (Mr. Closeted Politician) want to play that game? I can play too.

As far as defining gay... are you serious? I ignored your question on purpose. I thought you were being rhetorical. I didn't know you actually wanted an answer. --- I'll acknowledge that I know what you're getting at, but other than that... Sorry, I'm not going to play the semantics game. Gay is gay. We'll let the philosophers and public decide how gay is too-gay. Or... if a politician is in the closet, perhaps he's already defined for himself how gay is too gay.

As I said before... we'll just have to disagree. You won't change my mind, and I'm not going to bicker trying to change yours. If you want to have the last word, go ahead. I'll check back to read anything you want to add... but I'm done here.

-- Allen
