D*mnitt Zebra, go change your underwear!
Seriously, enhance your calm...As it has been pointed out here so many times, when homosexual issues are put to a vote, they lose badly. Every time. Even here in the looney Left coast of CA. Stop letting these empty cans rattling the most intimidate you. I know they have passion, and that's fine, but the numbers that 10% of males are gay have been proven to be bogus, something like 1.5%-2% yet no one wants to hear this. Even if it was gospel truth, 10% doesn't win any elections, save for the upcoming Democratic primary. (Vote Sharpton or Dean! Vote early and often.)
If you Republicans don't get some optimism fortified by conviction and start acting like a majority rather than exibiting bladder control problems every time a Liberal calls you a racist-sexist-bigoted-homophobic-Nazi you're without hope.
It isn't just about the homosexual drivers of the gay agenda--the 2% or whatever. It is those non-gay voters who have been successfully influenced by the social conditioning. Words like "gay" (rather than homosexual"), "homophobe", "intolerant", "basher" and "diversity" are touchstones that have gained acceptance in an increasingly politically correct world. Same-sex partner benefits, state recognition of same-sex unions, the erosion of barriers to permitting same-sex couples to adopt, the breakdown of traditional military prohibitions, the proliferation of anti-discrimination and hate-crime laws pertaining to gays, etc. These advancements of the gay agenda have gathered support from hardcore Dems and "socially enlightened" Republicans and Libertarians, and, of course, their enablers in the media and academia.
I am "fortified with conviction" and on your side here, but I have seen nothing until Santorum's comments to "fortify me with optimism" on this issue.
BTW, should a Liberal call [me] a racist-sexist-bigoted-homophobic-Nazi, I can assure you that he would be the one in need of a change of underwear.
