How can the homo's, as such a small percentage of even the liberal population of the U.S., basically drive the agenda for the entire left? They have a common enemy. Us.

True enough. But still, why did the other 90% of liberals suddenly decide to allow the homo's to take control of their movement, just within the past few years?? The left has a LOT of non-homo Type-A personalities within it's ranks, who will do anything to be the one's holding the reigns of power. They FAR outnumber the homo's, and are highly motivated to remain in control. They have been leading the movement for decades. Now all of sudden (relatively speaking, of course), they give up all of their control to the homo's?? It does not seem likely. These are not people who would easily cede power once they have it. Look at all of the in-fighting within the GOP between the Tea Party-types, and the RINO's. It is a REAL fight. But that is nothing compared to the all out war that happens within the ranks of the left, and the Democrats. The news media just doesn't report it. I am having trouble seeing the reason all of the Stalinist control freaks at the top of the movement would suddenly give up the power they have had for decades, and simply let the homo's take over the leadership. That is why I think that has NOT happened. Not anymore than the women had taken over the movement when they were pushing women's rights, or the blacks had taken over when they were pushing civil rights, or the environmentalists had taken over when they were pushing globull warming. I think that the entire homo thing is simply what is getting them traction with the entire U.S. population right now, so the leadership of the left is using them to advance the liberal cause in general. Once the entire homo thing has run it's course, the homo's will be thrown to the back of the bus once again, and whatever cause takes their place will be moved forward to replace them. And so it goes.
