2. It doesn't matter what people say |
|
It's what people do. And when actions belie words...there you go.

3. Good point. Obama co-sponsored adding sexual orientation to the Illinois human rights code. |
|
He also marched in the Chicago pride parade more than once. His actions match his position. Much more so than another candidate with a more conservative record.

6. Right, like when Clinton "acted" by signing DOMA into law |
|
Perhaps the most anti-GLBT piece of federal legislation in 50 years.

12. It's pretty common knowledge here that he stands for the rights of all citizens |
|
Regardless of race, gender or sexual orientation. He's also overwhelmingly popular here for all the work he's done in this state :)

He talks a good game. But his actions say something else.... something |
|
to keep in mind on ALL issues.... you should not defend this BS, but instead see it as a red flag for his whole platform.

5. Do you think presenting factual statements means anything to Clinton |
|
Shit...she'll counter with more than that and dare you to call her on it. When you do, "YOU"RE GOING NEGATIVE!"
she and Mr BJ are a work of art.

Typical dirty Chicago politics.

Why are you trying to spin it. It's a question, a simple yes or no will suffice.

18. Your first question wasn't directed to me :) |
|
But to answer your second question, which was directed to me. No, I'm not. I hope to do some campaigning for John Laesch, and we've donated to his campaign against Hastert, and his current one.

I'm most concerned with getting DOMA repealed
I think Obama is the best on this
Hillary has flip-flopped on DOMA

Clear as mud, as usual, when you aren't self-admittedly, "full of shit".
So much for your credibility....which is ZERO. :)
