The Revolution was not won by naysayers. You call it “the birther path”. Eligibility people call it defending the Constitution. You may have no stomach for it but you shouldn’t smear those who do. Check post 20.

I think maybe she’s queer.

I think that you are wrong. People who want sex with those of the same sex do not spend a whole lifetime not doing it. If she had, someone would know and word would get out.

It is the OldPossum's opinion that there are some people who have no romantic interest in man, woman, or beast.

No thanks. Aberrant behavior has never interested me. And that Folsom Street Fair was disgusting. Anyone seeing that would not support the homosexual agenda.

Actually they can. And do. There was a Pastor recently that talked about his same-sex attraction but has remained celibate. Not everyone thinks they're rabbits. Some people think they have a choice.

Not true, GOProud has seen it and they still 'PROUDLY' support the homo agenda.

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and predict that you and your clearly monstrous intellect are COMPLETELY misunderstanding JimRob’s position on this issue (here’s a hint - I think it’s very close to a certain very rich noon time radio show host). But hey, you keep fighting that good fight, Einstein, and I’ll just stay right here and keep laughing (but I ain’t laughing WITH you, hint hint).

GOProud is not conservative. Their whole agenda is homosexual rights.

Could be, I suppose.

Doesn’t much change how I view someone who supports homosexuality as an acceptable alternative lifestyle, though. They’re perverted — plain and simple.

I had an Aunt, Lee, who was somewhat like Anne. Lee became a lawyer in 1930’s NY, was a very strong willed, determined lady who was still working until her early 90’s.

Lee never married and not a person in the family could remember her having even gone on a date or even expressing any interest in a romantic life. She was not beautiful, but not ugly either, average looking, highly intelligent, religious and passionate about her life’s work. She never spoke of having regrets from not marrying or never having children to anyone.

When she passed away she left her family the bulk of her estate and left a great deal also to charities and her Temple (she was Jewish). In her will she left me additional monies; at the time I was contemplating going to law school and she was very excited and supportive of that.

There are some people who are simply not meant to marry and have a family, they realize this and accept it. I imagine my Aunt was simply independent, in love with her books and the law and had no financial reason to marry. Others who have chosen the same path have their reasons, most likely quite similar.

If you owned a flooring company and a well known queer called you up and asked you to refloor his building, would you turn him down?

Not a good analogy. Does his flooring business market itself as a conservative leader?

Got it. Thanks! (I don't watch much TV.)
So, apparently the author of this piece is using him as a MODEL -- of the "kind of personality" that Ann is aggravating within the GOP.
From www.nbc.com/The_Office:


RAINN WILSON
as Dwight Schrute

Rainn Wilson portrays Dwight Schrute,
an eccentric paper salesman
whose ego knows no bounds,
in the NBC comedy series "The Office."

She used to stand up for the constitution. This was the foundation of all her positions opposing the Left’s progress against individual rights. Oh well, I guess that was just bull to sell books to “cranks.”

And if you dare to disagree with her, her fans will insult you. There can be NO disagreement.

That was an interesting story about your Aunt Lee. It would seem to me that she might be an example of what I was talking about.

I cannot bring an example back this moment but there are stories of other people wedded to their jobs (as was your Aunt Lee) and never even considered having a romantic relationship with a person.

Oh yes, I just remembered one. He was one of my economics professors and he did seem just totally absorbed with economics (and history). It was said that this professor had probably forgotten more than many people ever knew about the field. Someone reported going to his house and findings dozens of books laying on the floor, on desks, on bookcases, with bookmarks into them (he was reading them).

When informed she could not participate in a political conference if she kept a commitment to speak to a group of gay Republicans, Ms. Coulter told organizers just what they could do with their conference.
