“The word homophobic makes no sense. Phobia mean fear. No one fears homosexuals. Many don’t accept it. Need a new word.”

I always call myself homoabhorrent. I abhor the thought of another man touching me in an intimate, or sexual, manner. As a straight male, a hairy backside just aint’ gonna cut it.

Very true. My husband had no idea Mayor Pete was gay until I told him this week.

“Pete and his HUSBAND Need to be more Exposed.”

There was an article posted this morning on FR by a liberal who suggested more “push polling.” The author posited that the vast majority of voters were not aware of the negatives that the Democratic candidates brought with them. For example, he believes, rightly, I think, that the average person doesn’t know anything about Bernie. A push poll would ask, would you vote for this person if you knew he was an avowed communist and honeymooned in the Soviet Union? The author said that certainly Trump’s advertising would inform the voters of every possible negative. In the general election we would see photos of Pete and his “husband” plastered across all the media. Democrats should start push poling to see how that would play in the general. “Would you vote for a homosexual in a same sex marriage?”

They fell right into Rush’s trap. Now demonicRATS have no choice but to circle the clown cars around Buttigieg and Rush will have been proven right once again. demonicRATS will have no choice but to show their true colors.

Well YOU are the WINNER today. :) Rush is RIGHT. He loves to poke the left. That is exactly why WE LOVE HIM. It’s why we’re all praying for his recovery.

This is also why we love TRUMP. HE is bold, says it like it is, in your face, never wimp out.. Gotta Love Rush and Trump. So there.

By the way........... when most of us see that kiss.... just ewweee.... Remember Tipper and Algore.

Rush was merely acting as political analyst, not judge.

“America won’t vote for a Socialist president”. This is political analysis.

“America won’t vote for a homosexual president.” This, too, is political analysis. It’s not personal.

The Democrats won’t say it since it is not politically correct but Rush is not held by the same restriction yet many Americans are glad he said because somebody should.

Failure to accept reality is partly why the Democrats are where they find themselves now.

“Homophobic” implies the FEAR of homosexuality. I don’t fear any of them, I just don’t want their lifestyle on full display where we have to see it. I also don’t want them telling me I have to care about their agenda...I don’t, and I never will. It totally disgusts me.

“why wait for the demonrats to expose the vulnerabilities of their candidates when we are capable of doing it on our own...”

The article also mentioned that the Republicans had already done their push polls to identify the various candidates’ vulnerabilities, “But, obviously, they are keeping that data tightly to their chests hoping the Democrats will pick the most vulnerable candidate.”

Nobody has a phobia about homos . . .

Anyone who has watched "Deliverance" or who is facing time in prison is likely to have a fear of predatory perverts. However, it's a completely rational fear, so it's not a phobia.

There's no such thing as homophobic.

I agree. I don't fear them transmitting diseases that kill themselves off or leave them disabled.

A better term would be “Heterophobic” because they seem to have dillusions that they are being persecuted by the consequences of their own actions.

there’s less than nine months until election day...
it would make more sense to broadcast all of their vulnerabilities now so the low info voters could see the lesser of evils the demonrats plan to hoist upon them...

Exactly. I have a very real fear about what these perverts and their agenda are doing to our culture and society. This fear appears to be depressingly rational.
