Agreat line from Tucker Carlson the other night on Crossfire:

Seven of the nine Democrats running for president made a pilgrimage to the Human Rights Campaign yesterday to swear their loyalty to the cause of gay rights, but only partial loyalty, it turns out.

Among the major candidates, only one, just one -- that, of course, is Al Sharpton -- believes that gays ought to be allowed to get married. The rest are hypocrites. But that did not prevent them from pandering. According to a remarkable account in "The Washington Post" this morning, these opponents of gay marriage spent most of their time bragging about the great accomplishment of having gay relatives, acquaintances, and employees, very much of the "Some of my best friends are" variety.

And then there was Dennis Kucinich. Kucinich, a vegan congressman from Ohio, boasted that he would like to -- quote -- "appoint any lesbian, bisexual, or transgendered person to the Supreme Court, just as long as they would be willing to uphold Roe vs. Wade." So there you have it: cross-dressing and abortion, two great Democratic values that go great together.

I love it.

Hey, wait a minute! It'd take a hell of a job of cross-dressing before some guy needed an abortion.
