This is from the GDP forum..where there are times that I have gotten a bit carried away.. I posted this over there, and thought some of you may like to know what I am about... Yes.. Believe it or not..I have a lot of passionate beliefs. I also take some things personally..which is not a good trait..but one that goes along with passion. Let me tell you a bit about me. I am a gay man. I live my life shattering gay myths. I am 100 per cent anti war. I support our troops however. I serve in the military..proudly..to show people that gays CAN serve..and that liberals do OPPOSE the war, yet SUPPORT the troops. I am HIGHLY respected by my commanding officers and those who serve under me. I have met too many good men with traumatic brain injuries, and lost limbs, who paid the price for Chimpy's mistake. I have spent hours on the phone, talking soldiers out of comitting suicide until help reached them. I work for the Boy Scouts (another anti-gay organization)..mentoring youth..as a gay man, and have the support and respect of all of my superiors. I am also a mentor for a young male organization for troubled youth, and work daily to show them the way to accomplish positive things..we have made great strides. I do not back away from a fight. I speak a lot before thinking..a trait many of us share. I was here on Iowa night... I posted a thread congratulating Obama..I was told "Fuck off loser" ON NH night, when Hillary won..an Obama supporter posted about how bwad she felt. I encouraged her that although I did not support her candidate, that she shpuld never give up hope. I also get carried away.. a lot. Double standards are a sore spot for me..i stick up for the underdog and never give up the fight. I have gone over the line at times. If I offended, I apologize for my language..not my beliefs. I have been inspired form a few supporters tonight.. I will try to improve..and not go over the line again. I am capable of vividly expressing my beliefs without getting personal. All I ask..is that others do the same.
