1. This was good.
If only her genuine appreciation of Keith's sentiment. But there was much more. Validation of much of what has been stated here on this forum. And not the least of which was that she is actually Newt's sister. Which I believe has some kind of reflection on him. I can't figure out what, quite yet. But I feel it's meaningful.

9. I'm not sure we want to go there.
Leastways, not as Democrats. It reminds me all too much of the classic GOP "guilt by association" technique.

10. True. But my thinking was actually much more inclusive than divisive.
I'm thinking that perhaps as opposing as we may be sometimes, we may just all be much more alike than it seems.

Of course this only works for me under the premise that humans are actually liberal beings. Which we are. You have to be ill to pass by someone who is injured or under duress.

It's too early for thinking. Ouch. :)

2. Guess Candice got all the smart genes and Newt got all the doofus ones

Yes, doofus. I said it.

3. K&R. She was really good... I especially like the end, LOL!
Proves that idiocy doesn't necessarily run in the family...:eyes:

Maybe it's karma that those who would most mind having gay family members have them, Newt, Cheney, Alan Keyes...:shrug:

5. yes and probably some self-loathing from it all too

It says a lot about people who are homophobic if they have a close relative who is GLBT. Maybe in some cases they were so embarrassed by it, it made them hate.

6. How about a ballot initiative to ban the republican party?
We could just vote them out of existence.

7. I'm on it.
Ok, I'm not, but I know a guy who is.

Yeah I don't. But it would be cool if he was. :)
