How can a GAY PERSON support Hillary any more/

[Ichingcarpenter]

and not be a log cabin republican?

[VulgarPoet]

1. I think it has something to do with HRC endorsed Clinton so we're supposed to march in lockstep

[Metric System]

2. Are you gay?

[Ichingcarpenter]

8. Are You?.........

I have personally witnessed deaths from Aids
and found t your log cabin thoughts interesting.

[Metric System]

10. My log cabin thoughts?

[Ichingcarpenter]

11. Seems like it

after your Regean apology by Clinton.

SHE FUCKED UP.

[yardwork]

23. YOU fucked up even worse with this OP. You should delete it.

Your words here are far more insulting than Hillary's were today. I'm angry with Hillary, but you have gone too far.

[Ichingcarpenter]

26. ALERT ON ME

I WELCOME IT.

[Firebrand Gary]

31. The OP has gone too far, its very disappointing.

To suggest that gay people only support Hillary for LGBT stances is not only ignorant, it's HOMOPHOBIC!

[beaglelover]

15. I'm gay and have had great friends die of AIDS in the early 90s. My husband is long term

HIV+. And we both support Hillary over Bernie 100%!!

[ashtonelijah]

3. Oh, please Brosplain to me how I must see the error of my gays.

Want to call me an Aunt Tom too?

Yes, I'm highly annoyed that she made an ignorant comment about AIDS. Yes, I want her to apologize a dozen more times. I want her to be forced into a Jeremiah Wright style moment where she has to explain to the country the truth about the Reagans and the AIDS crisis.

But if you think one moment of ignorance in relation to gay history, albeit one that really irks me, is going to make me switch candidates when I overwhelmingly support the majority of the things she says and her policy decisions, then you're being quite condescending, and dare I say, more than a little homophobic.

I disagree with her on TPP and marijuana legalization. If you think that I am so singularly defined by my sexuality they one misstep on gay history (not even a policy position) is going to make me switch candidates, then you really don't get gay people any better than she gets the history of Reagan and HIV. That does not make me a Log Cabin Republican.

She needs to apologize. And now, so do you.

[Buzz Clik]

5. Because she apologized?

[m-lekktor]

6. oh I have seen many of my fellow gays on facebook doubling down, calling us "Berniebros"

if we complain and getting real nasty about it. Many of us are furious as well but we never really liked her anyway and this just reinforces it.

[Metric System]

7. What condescending tripe.

[Ichingcarpenter]

9. So she fucked up

and apologized for her delusion

Gee............. you go girl..........

Can't wait for you on the your sharp
thoughts on the world stage.

[beaglelover]

16. What????

"Can't wait for you on the your sharp
thoughts on the world stage."

[Ichingcarpenter]

19. Listen............

so you think stupidity bigoted thoughts from your leader
is cool................ well guess what..............

THIS IS GONNA GO VIRAL

and the media has no control over this
because they are not the ones that have control over
the internet.

[beaglelover]

12. At this point, Hillary supporters have made it clear that they are my political opponents,

just like the Republicans are.

I treat them the same way: no need to engage with them, because they do not support liberal and progressive ideals and the can't be convinced to do so.

So let them vote for whomever they wish, and they can spare me their excuses.

[Broward]

13. Corporatist Dems are complicit in this country's hard move right

on some key issues over the past 40 years. They are unquestionably part of the problem.

[beaglelover]

14. She's apologized. Get over yourself!

Such ridiculous statements.

[Ichingcarpenter]

17. That was her FIRST THOUGHT

About Nancy......... you don't get a redo.




Ridiculous stupid and denial is your reality.

[BernieforPres2016]

18. How could a gay person not support this?

and starting at 2:12 on this video:

Instead of this, from many years prior:

[yardwork]

20. How dare you tell us how to think!

How dare a member of the privileged straight minority call members of a minority group names because we dare to think for ourselves. We don't need your permission for our thoughts and beliefs.

I am pissed at Hillary but this condescending shit makes me far angrier. How dare you!

[DURHAM D]

25. First they used AAs and POCs, then women, and now our community.

It is disgusting. What next?

[yardwork]

28. They've been on us for a while. We have Stockholm Syndrome.

Bullying is not a winning campaign strategy.

[DURHAM D]

21. Stop.

I lost dozens of friends. In fact, I lost every single gay male friend of a certain age except one. I am talking about dozens and dozens of good men. Friends from NY, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Oklahoma City, Denver, Santa Fe, LA, San Francisco, Boston, Philadelphia, Austin, Kansas City, etc. I could go on and on. I would list their names but you don't deserve to know.

Using them for sport is disgusting. Just stop it.

[Ichingcarpenter]

24. You defend Hillary

I have witnessed more death than you ever will.

[DURHAM D]

27. How old are you? nt

[NurseJackie]

30. Sheesh! ...

[Ichingcarpenter]

32. GO NANCY!!!!

THANK YOU NURSE

[BillZBubb]

33. How could a gay person supporter her at all?

She didn't evolve on their basic rights until the train had already left the station.

Her comments on DOMA were downright offensive. The only right wing talking point she left out was "Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve!".

[Ichingcarpenter]

35. Well the smell of death

is something she never experienced.

[basselope]

34. I don't understand how ANYONE can support Hillary.

The only argument I have EVER heard in her defense that is the least bit compelling is "it would be nice to have a woman president".

But that is not enough to overcome her poor foreign policy experience, poor economic experience and overall horrible record.

[MondoCane]

36. Gay here...

It's Diva Worship. Plain and simple.

[Firebrand Gary]

37. Goodbye, you're going on the ignore list!

Peace out.

[Ichingcarpenter]

38. Raise the gay flag for Nancy!!!

Go for it!!!
