My gay, Republican hairdresser HATES BUSH!
I just got back from having my hair done.

I've known that he's a Pub for years, and has worked on a lot of political campaigns, so we used to talk politics a lot, in a very cordial manner.
Lately, he's been very quiet about politics, and I've been so angry with Republicans that I hadn't been bringing it up either.

Well, today, out of nowhere, he told me that he would vote for a chimpanzee before Bush in the upcoming election. He then went on to say that a lot of his Republican clients have ACTUALLY LEFT THE PARTY!
Because they were so upset with Bushco's policies.

It sounds like there is a lot of turmoil going on inside the Republican party, in Arizona at least!
Maybe Bush's base isn't as strong as he thinks.....

1. Good luck spotting the difference between...
...bush and a chimpanzee.

WTF is a gay guy doing voting republican? That's like Anne Frank voting National Socialist.

3. I meet them all the time in gay chat rooms online!
I can almost always count on getting slammed with Rush Limbaugh talking points by at least 1 person if I bring up anti-Bush comments.

5. "WTF is a gay guy...?" You'd be surprised.
Ever heard of the Log Cabin Republicans? Or former CA congressman "B-1" Bob Dornan, whose right-hand-man of 20+ years came out of the closet a couple of years ago?

9. Not so strange...
My friend, Jim, is a Gay Republican. His thought is that he is not defined by his sexuality and there are some things in life more important.

Personally I don't agree with him but then again I do disagree with a lot of things Dems do (just not nearly as much as I dislike Pubs)

10. I'm not defined by my sexuality either.
I'm not a Democrat because I'm gay any more than I'm gay because I'm blonde or I'm blonde because I'm left-handed or -- I could go on and on.

Back when I was a Republican -- I was gay then too.

15. a straight, 80-year-old Florida Republican I know ...
.... hated W so much, he decided to vote for Pat Buchanan in 2000.

He's probably the only person in the state who did so on purpose!
