3. And that is why I refuse to vote for Obama in the primaries
He knowingly and willingly gave these people a platform to speak from and spread their hate. There are PLENTY of people he could have tapped for the "gospel" vote who don't spread this type of shit, but I think it is very telling that these are the people he went with.

4. yes, The part that astonishes me
is that the decision came so early in the campaign. It scares me how quickly and thoughtlessly we were 'cast asunder'. I don't think he is homphobic personally, he has some fine thoughts on the matter, the Mc Clukin affair just portrays him as a typical politician, inspite of his rhetoric.. But that's not my only complaint about that politician.

5. Very senseless.
Anybody want to head on over to Fort Lauderdale and hang out on the 1000th block of Sistrunk Boulevard dressed in women's clothing every night for a couple of days? I'm talking about both straight and gay folks in a show of solidarity that lets the entire population know that we're not going to let them change the way we express ourselves through fear for our lives. If we had a supporting cast of straight folk to help us out, I for one wouldn't have a problem with that.

What do you all say?

I work at a place that would be less than appreciative of my taking days off from work, but I'm willing to head on over to Fort Lauderdale anyway.

Q3JR4.
