Actually these are the guys that couldn't couldn't give a rat's ass about donating time to mentor young boys lest it get in the way of their busy social life. But don't let that get in the way of a good rant.

Not totally true because homosexuals have a much higher rate than heterosuals to offend children, but don't let get in the way of good sophistry.

ok, Clinton, I'm audi, and I'll leave you with this (it's a cut n paste and says what I'm thinking right now):

"I don't think FR is for me. As much as I love to read the news from a right perspective, being the good little libertarian I am with my distrust and dislike of Clinton, big government, my desire for local control over community issues, my respect for the Constitution, etc, I don't have any bile or bitterness against fundies at all. Instead, I'm kinda sad, that the movement for all the government principles I hold dear is poisoned from within, by the rabid "Christian" fundamentalist right, paranoid and delusional, and particularly fearful, ignorant and hateful of gay people, it's really unpleasant to watch. I live in NY, where this apoplexy regarding sexuality is a weird oddity, completely disconnected from reality, reason, kindness, civility, etc. It's the Achille's heel of the GOP and in about 10 years, the party will be torn asunder for it. Very sad, when we have a real opportunity to reduce gov't...instead, because of the right's in-fighting and hubris, I see a very strong resurgence of bloated gov't and spending, ridiculous nanny stating from a well-intentioned, yes, but completely misguided left. The thing you fundies have to let go, (though I know you won't, it's so ingrained in your wet apocolyptic dreams, the Second Coming of Christ to save y'all, etc.) is that the future IS a pluralistic society, where, yup, even homosexuals are respected. The world is leaving you behind and y'all are scared, can't deal with, can't move on. So the world will move on without you. Most of us rational people move along with it. You won't. And you will hurt. And you will hurt the future of a Republican party dedicated to the ideals of the Constitution. "
