FR Zots Gay Rights RINO Trolls - David Frum Deeply Saddened

When Bill Clinton moved to open the military to gays in 1993, the GOP and conservative Democrats led the effort to oppose gay rights. In 1996, Hawaii flirted with gay marriage and the GOP again led the charge against gay equality, culminating in the federal response known as the "Defense of Marriage Act".
Flash forward fourteen years to the present. Gay marriage is ruled a federal right for the first time and the response from the GOP is
tepid. Not one nationally prominent elected official thought the issue was important enough to get worked up over....
Complicating matters for social conservatives, polls show even a majority of Republican voters support abolishing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell"....
The list of conservatives supporting gay equality is growing--from the many Republican appointed judges who have ruled in favor of various gay rights cases, to GOP Solicitor General Ted Olson, Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and even the ultraconservative former Vice President Dick Cheney. Nowadays Margaret Hoover of Fox News sits on the board of GOProud alongside conservative Grover Norquist; and even Elisabeth Hasselbeck has come out in support of gay marriage rights...
What is happening to the GOP? First our elected officials tire of bashing gays and now our pundits? Perhaps Republicans are beginning to see the writing on the wall. Public opinion is changing rapidly in favor of gay marriage rights....
The religious right may be having a conniption, but younger Republicans increasingly appear to believe that opposing gay equality is inconsistent with a belief in increased liberty and smaller government. Although the religious right will continue to be a strong presence in the GOP for years to come, changing demographics are not on the side of anti-gay forces and the GOP appears to be awakening to this reality.

I was really looking forward to having the troll explain how I was in over my head.Now, now, wagglebee. You know exactly
what he meant.
It was better, and more sinister,
to imply it than to outright say/show it.

Given the subject matter it is laughable, isn't it.
BTW, good catch. You didn't even have to bait the trap.

You can request the Viking Kitties (they decide whether or not to respond) by pinging darkwing104. He's the boss and keeper of the VK ping list.
The zots themselves are the sole domain of Jim and the Admin Moderators.

Okay, so darkwing104 is the head dude, then. I will be so advised.
I do understand that you do not have zot powers, nor (sigh) do I.

Sometimes I wish I had zot powers but they’d probably just get me into trouble. ;0)
