>> The platform of the GOProud is all typical “gay” agenda crap except for token mention of lower taxes and gun rights. >>

You know, you might have had a chance of making a legitimate point - that being that anyone who joins such an organization must be overly concerned on the gay part of the equation. And you would be right.

But you had to jump off the deep end and misrepresent the facts. The vast majority of their website is about non sexually related issues and in fact non social issues at all.

But I guess you claim to have inside knowledge. How does that work?

Hmmm:

Here’s the GOProud homo-nazi, non-conservative agenda. Nothing conservative except the right to bear arms and a token nod to lower taxes, but they want tax money used for pro-”gay” rights crap, so their nod to lower taxes means nothing. I don’t have the link to their site any more (lost all my bookmarks) and IIRC they did slightly change their agenda a while later.

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 o f**** 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****. [even Muslim ones?]

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 (that is lowering taxes? Giving money to “old towns” where a lot of homosexuals buy properties...); support for school choice.

10 - DEFENDING OUR COMMUNITY - Protecting 2nd amendment rights
