Hi HIldy.

Haven't seen you post in a while.

Now, an answer for your question ~ aside from personal preferences, personal morality, personal angles of incidence, etc., we have to look at ELECTION RESULTS.

The problem is the voting public doesn't give a damned one way or the other what the Democrats are doing sexually ~ never have, never will. I think it's because the general public kind of looks at Democrats as being kind of low-class trash.

When it comes to Republicans and Conservatives, the general public simply doesn't approve of the page games of a Mark Foley or the wide stance on the public toilet of Senator Craig.

Because they don't approve of such acting out by Republicans, or the tolerance of it by Conservatives, they withhold their votes, or, sometimes they go and vote for the Democrats to teach us a lesson.

Well, the lesson has been taught ~ homosexual money or votes are OK, but positions of respect, honor, or power in the Conservative movement or the Republican party are out of bounds.

It's up to the homosexuals to turn the general voting public around on those questions, not us. Our job is to do a general beatdown on the Democrats in the elections, and then try to do an honest job governing.

If it were otherwise Craig would still be a senator and Foley would be in the sack with a couple of pages.

Legislative Priorities
GOProud’s Conservative Agenda

The so-called “gay agenda” is defined by the left through a narrow prism of legislative goals. While hate crimes and employment protections may be worthy goals, there are many other important priorities that receive little attention from the gay community. GOProud’s agenda emphasizes conservative and libertarian principles that will improve the daily lives of all Americans, but especially gay and lesbian Americans.

1 - TAX REFORM - Death tax repeal; domestic partner tax equity, and other changes to the tax code that will provide equity for gays and lesbians; cut in the capital gains and corporate tax rates to jump start our economy and create jobs; a fairer, flatter and substantially simpler tax code.

2 - HEALTHCARE REFORM - Free market healthcare reform. Legislation that will allow for the purchase of insurance across state lines - expanding access to domestic partner benefits; emphasizing individual ownership of healthcare insurance - such a shift would prevent discriminatory practices by an employer or the government.

3 - SOCIAL SECURITY REFORM - Bringing basic fairness to the Social Security system through the creation of inheritable personal savings accounts.

4 - DON’T ASK, DON’T TELL REPEAL - Repeal of the military’s Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy.

5 - HOLDING THE LINE ON SPENDING - Standing up for all tax payers against wasteful and unneccessary spending to protect future generations from the mounting federal debt.

6 - FIGHTING GLOBAL EXTREMISTS - Standing strong against radical regimes who seek to criminalize gays and lesbians.

7 - DEFENDING OUR CONSTITUTION - Opposing any anti-gay federal marriage amendment.

8 - ENCOURAGING COMMUNITY ENTREPRENEURSHIP - Package of free market reforms to encourage and support small businesses and entrepreneurship in the gay community.

9 - REVITALIZING OUR COMMUNITIES - A package of urban related reforms; expanding historic tax preservation credits; support for school choice.

10 - DEFENDING OUR COMMUNITY - Protecting 2nd amendment rights.
