You know very well that he can dispell rumors about his sexual identity by pointing to his anti-gay voting record under ordinary circumstances. I've seen it plenty of times where a person will behave in an inconsistent manner with their own actions in order to maintain a public facade.

Neither you nor I are simpleminded so let's not go there.

And you know what? If we play the game the way you want to play it, he will continue to get away with it. I repeat: I will not suffer a person who behaves in a dispicable and hypocritical manner to go unchallenged.

To be completely honest, the attitude that we must always to play nice nice and put everything aside because we afraid of getting our hands a little dirty is costing this party. There is a such thing as being so nice that you become a doormat and people like yourself allow people to use as doormats.

I am not a doormat and I refuse to be a doormat. It's just like the fact that I do not like violence, but I am not about to allow a person to beat me to pulp and not fight back.
