"No I don't feel that way at all."
Yeah, right.
"The gay issue, on the other hand, is a stand alone matter especially as it relates to the war on terrorism and my favorite issue of border security. "
I mentioned it as an example, not as an issue.
You need to learn what an example is.
"How is anybody going to take you seriously if your agenda is consistently being hijacked by the gay priority?"
Once again, the terrorism was an example, not the issue.
Once again, you have failed to meet the standards.
"Gay Tourism" will turn into "Sex Tourism" quicker than you can say "The Wiggles" or "Booh-Bah".
Then there's the gay marriage issue where they will 'wed abroad' and insist their 'union' be recognized in the US.
Now, take two bolts, and show me how by themselves they can be united.
Using ONLY the bolts themselves.
How is anybody am I, spatso, going to take you seriously if your agenda, in my, spatso's, opinion, is consistently being hijacked by as I, spatso, see it, the gay priority?
The answer is that our agenda is not being hijacked.
It is an issue yes, but only one among many.
We are not, as your spatsological argument would have us believe, fixated or distracted.
If our enemies are stupid enough to believe that this 'gay' issue means
we are less likely to take the battle to them or to defend our borders,
they do so at their peril.
As conservatives and patriots we are called on to fight on many fronts.
The U.S. and Canada face the common enemies of socialism and radical islam.
We don't get to pick and choose our battles,
but stand up for conservative principles and our country whenever we find them challenged.
Of course some threats are more dire.
When faced with two men that want us to accept their "marriage"
and an islamofascist that wants to kill us
it is obvious which is a more immediate threat
and is treated as such.
In this international struggle conservatives need to support one another across borders.
You can be sure our enemies do.
Sniping at our fellows about their problems when we have the same problems helps no one but our foe.
Your knowledge of Canada as gleaned from these few titillating media articles
that you are focusing on is woefully incomplete.
If you're concerned about Canada do some more study.
See where we have been and where we are working hard, with God's grace, to be.
Realistically things rarely change over night
but with consistent effort and the support of our great neighbors to the south
we are moving Canada in the right direction
