To find that the authors of these studies are certifiably insane would be to find even homosexual scientists who have come to the same conclusion to be insane, and they're probably not going to lynch their own.

They aren't going to worry about that. Logical extensions of reasoning have no place in liberal politics. The goal is to attack the character and motives of your opponents until they go away, and others are intimidated away from taking their place.

I promise you the assault on Spitzer's character and mental faculties will soon begin. They will call him senile, they will say he has become a tool of the religious right, that he's been brainwashed, or financially corrupted, or whatever. I have seen it more times than I care to remember.

Hmm. That seems to be a common theme on this thread...

Actually the assault began three years ago and continues today, as documented here (see the last two paragraphs in that document).
