REPUBLICANS CAN'T STOP SOCIAL EQUALITY
Why is it that Larry Craig hates admitting that yes, he himself is gay? Either open or in private, being gay isn't a crime.
It's a way of life. It can't be ignored. It can't be voted against. It can't be struck down as being a threat to society.
But for some odd reason, mainstream Republicans are homophobic to the extreme--while other more moderate Republicans--and even some conservative ones--have accepted that being gay or lesbian isn't so bad.
These same mainstream Republicans have shown their animosity towards gays and lesbians by voting against rights bills which would have a more beneficial to the gay and lesbian community.
Kansas has recently voted to protect state employees from discrimination based on gender orientation. An Iowa county had allowed gays and lesbians to marry. But as soon as that happened, the Republican anti-gay machine jumped into action and vowed to blunt and block what I have as seen as social progress.
Not because I want to see gay marriage happen (yet), but because society has changed more so than some people can handle.
Hence the hatred, bigotry, and gender intolerance based on sexual orientation--by the GOP.
Which is fine. This is a free country. But they can't stop the wheel of progress. Sooner or later, they are going to have to accept change as being part of our country's natural evolution.
Whether they like it or not.
