Reply #439: the weakness is HYPOCRISY, for the umpteenth time [View All]

the issue is PROTECTING hard-won gains in civil rights not "losing" and not "revenge" and this other nonsense you keep repeating. this is about real issues, like the ability of gays and lesbians to adopt, that affect real people's lives...not some political version of football, where the best "team" wins. this is about combatting homophobia and homophobic attempts to ATTACK GLBQT folks...to DENY us the rights that YOU have the luxury of taking for granted. your "crossfire" fears are a hypothetical as are the rumors about dreier, btw. unless you've been consulting ms. cleo...you have no idea how "outing" a closeted homophobe would affect anyone else.

as to this comment: "what happens if the pubbies decide to run with it and use this to promote their tolerance?"

this would be a GOOD thing, right? according to everything you've written in this thread, one would hope so, since it's what "we" liberals *really* want.
