I'll bet all freepers have a gay person in their family or extended family OR a neighbor, coworker etc....

while I think "gay-ism" ...my new word...is abnormal and deviant, I can not hate people I know who are gay....

if we are truely conservative and believe in the constitution, then these people have a right to live in this country too....and the right to speak to legislators....

we're getting pretty petty lately.....no one is perfect....I'll bet Sarah Palin would talk to the Log Cabin Republicans if they asked her....

"You want to tell the 90% of your supporters"

conservatives are NOT haters....and most conservatives could care less what goes on in people's bedrooms...infact, we insist NOT to know....and yes I know, some gays have pushed the openess stuff a bit too much....

the democrats love the way we're tearing each other apart...

Those pushing the homosexual agenda are trying to destroy and remake society to suit them; their words, not mine. Now they are trying to demoralize the Republican Party, or make it arm of the militant homosexual agenda.

You say “some gays have pushed the openness stuff a bit too much”.

A BIT?? How about teaching the mechanics of anal sodomy and other sick crap in middle schools? That’s just a bit to you?

There are no private bedrooms in the military, I have two children in the Marine Corps.. Look, the dynamics of this issue aren't as simple as you seem to believe...

Cornyn’s mere appearance at the meeting does advance the Log Cabin goals, and he knows that of course.

I would have no knowledge of Cornyns purpose nor would I conjecture. If this were someone like Billy Graham going to speak would we have a different view of what his goals would be perhaps?

I disagree with the lifestyle and abhor the radical agenda of the homosexual cause.

However, I don’t have a problem with Cornyn speaking to gays if he speaks about the conservative plank of the GOP. We don’t have to accept their agenda, that is not outreach. They have to accept our agenda.

My problem with Cornyn is his support of wishy washy liberals and moderates at the NRSC.

Am I losing it, or did I read a thread around here that Cornyn was denouncing social issues?

Geesh, I consider the gay movement a social issue. Or does Mr Cornyn only feel the need to embrace social issues approved by the clowns at RINO central?

Mr Graham's purpose would be clear as he is not a politician. However, Cornyn is a politician.

He also has apparently become a Rino.

Cornyn: GOP's stance on social issues alienating independents

Lots of hating in this thread.

Love the sinner, hate the sin. Works for me.
