More Irony
Isn't ironic that the same people outraged over Kerry's remarks about Cheney's daughter were the same ones in the end that felt gay marriage was was a main factor in voting for Bush.

2. I never understood that.
But then, I'm not afraid of gay people.

6. May be the pundits should just shout it out loud
We are still a nation of little teenage boys afraid that the big bad gay man might make us do something we don't want to do.

4. The gay marriage ammendment was on the ballot
in 11 states Ohio and Michigan are two. Guess we know why. That drove the homophob's out. I'm fried but, I think they may have believed they would lose Fla. and needed Michigan and Ohio to get it for them.

9. In other words:
Stupidity and bigotry cost us some votes.

There was nothing wrong with what Kerry said.

8. No, it makes perfect sense.
They see homosexuality as something to be deeply ashamed of. Their outrage was out of bigotry.

10. That's all I can think
They were so outraged that he called the vp's daughter a LESBIAN!

You think he'd called her a liberal.

Wait . . .
