Oh Adam. For someone who supposedly understands politics, you are a bit of a simpleton aren’t you?

The only people who are “trumpeting” Ketner’s sexual orientation are those who are also gay. But why do you think that is? Could it be because they’d be proud if an openly gay person were to be elected to represent her entire community? And proud that that would mean the people of the 1st District could look beyond something like the sexual orientation of a candidate and make a choice based on policy differences or record?

Nobody thinks the people of this district will vote for Ketner BECAUSE she’s a lesbian, but they do hope they will consider doing so despite it.

So yes, we get to be proud of her. But that does not mean you get to “hit” her about it. The difference? We are hopeful and proud of this achievement, but you and your ilk want to “use” her sexual orientation to divide people based on fear.

Can you understand the vast difference there?

Well, we suspect that the party of the ex-philanderer and chief would find that, let’s say 48 years of Christian marriage to be perhaps perverse and worthy of ridicule.

To date, Congressman Brown continues to refuse the “gay gambit” of the LGBT endorsements as a point of attack.

First, anyone who opposes Obama is a racist. Now, anyone who opposes Ketner is a homophobe. Boy, we conservatives must be some really bad people. I guess we’ll just have to continue bitterly clinging to our guns and religion, while the liberal elites spend our tax money for us.

Remember, the democratic party is the party of feminism and tolerance. That is, of course, until Sarah Palin’s name is mentioned. Then it’s time to go home, get back in the kitchen and cook me some supper…

See, this is what we get when anyone filters their whole exsitence through the “gay” lens. A person can’t just run on what they actually think, because, well gosh darn it, their orientation colors everything. Sheeze…
