Repudiation [GOP should stop "going gay"!]
Canada Free Press ^ | 05 Nov 2014 | Tim Dunkin

Posted on 11/05/2014 9:58:55 AM PST by Yashcheritsiy

To begin with, this election was, generally speaking, a rejection of the notion being advanced by many in the establishment wing of the Party that the Republicans needs to move to the Left on social issues like abortion and gay “marriage.” Earlier this year, GOP establishment leaders like Kevin McCarthy and Paul Ryan announced their plan to begin trying to recruit “Young Gun” candidates – socially liberal, and often homosexual, candidates to run under the Republican banner in an effort to “broaden the appeal” of the Party, especially to younger, socially liberal voters. John Boehner backed this effort, throwing money at the candidates who had been recruited to run this year. However, the voters who were supposed to be impressed by the GOP’s lurch to the Left on “individual choice” issues instead reacted with a collective yawn. In the race for the open seat in Massachusetts’ 6th congressional district, “Young Gun” Richard Tisei - a gay Republican who has a 100% rating from NARAL and Planned Parenthood, who (obviously) supports gay “marriage,” and who is “married” to his “partner” - lost by 15 points to a non-incumbent and relatively unknown Democrat. To give this some perspective, Tisei had ran for the same seat in 2012 against a well-known and long-time incumbent and lost by only a single point. It does not appear that Tisei’s choice to flaunt his peculiar lifestyle choice did him or the GOP any favors this time around...

Cut out the witch hunt. Homosexuals have a right to be here as long as they do not promote liberal agendas (including homosexual marriage/hate crimes/ENDA etc). Just being homosexual and saying “I am gay” should not be bannable unless we ban all divorced people, atheist, Mormons, adulterers, Jews, fornicators, divorced etc).

Whether you realize it or not, the whole 'being gay' premise is in and of itself Leftist propaganda. You are posting the unscientific psycobabble nonsense here and as such promoting the Leftist homosexual agenda. That which you claim as fact, that there are 'gay beings' among us is the bedrock that all the homosexual agenda propaganda sits upon. Terms such as 'homophobia' fall apart if one separates actions which can be legitimately discriminated against from the state of being 'gay' human which can not.

Your equivocating 'plea': “I am gay” should not be bannable unless we ban all divorced people, atheist, Mormons, adulterers, Jews, fornicators, divorced highlights the absurdity of your Leftist indoctrinated position.

That isn’t attitude

It’s catitude. Or attitude with catitude?

That said, very adorable Viking baby kitty.

As for Mormons and Jews, that's ridiculous. As for sins, the difference is in whether a person is in a state of repentance for an acknowleged sin, or if they are defiant and defensive of their sin.
