Let’s just look at how incredibly stupid this strategy really is.
First, the Dims have fallen into their own trap. The uber-liberal media have done a superb job over the years (TV, movies, etc.) in portraying gays as the loveable fall guy, the funny foil, the nice guy in sitcoms and movies. They’re funny but harmless, right?
So....now that they feel America has fallen for this schtick (witness Biden’s strong reference to the abysmal “Will and Grace” sitcom), they feel it’s time to swoop in for the kill.
One little problem. Gays make up far less than 2% of the American population....that’s less than TWO percent. This means that 98 out of every 100 Americans are heterosexual; you know, as God made us to be.
This means that the Dims are catering to that 1-2% at the expense of support from a huge chunk of the remaining 98%.
Look, I’m no political genius....but I have nearly 30 years in sales, marketing, and business development. I can tell you flat out that this is BEYOND stupid. It belies an agenda that says “truth or reality be damned, full speed ahead!!!!”.
It’s more than suicidal.....it’s beyond idiotic.
When virtually every vote on the issue has produced a 60/40 margin, it is both suicidal and idiotic to play to the short side of that equation.
Dims overplaying their hand? Whodathunkit! They think they can manage the issue and make it go away. But I think this is too juicy for the MSM to let up.
I don't like the distractions from the economy except in this case. Let the dems spend as much time as they want proclaiming themselves the pro gay marriage party. They just can't help themselves and all that homo passive aggressive stuff comes out; calling us hateful, bigoted, etc. That dim hubris is what will sink them.
