Isn't it nice that all those people who the republicans have vilified and slandered for years have managed to make it safe for people like Ken Mehlman to come out of the closet

A friend of mine has a theory that the reason "they" are against gay marriage is because if it were legal, all "their" gay lovers would insist that they come out of the closet and get married.

Personally, I suspect that they all want to make sure that they remain the Alpha Homo within their local chapter of the party.

I think it's very interesting to see how many people are basically saying, "no, he's not welcome until he apologizes and fixes all the damage he's done. Getting rich and having the luxury of being able to come out AFTER you've done this much damage makes you a monster."

i don't think it makes him a monster. but, as i said, it's really swell that he can stand on the shoulders that his organization vilified for fun and profit.

It looks like support for same-sex marriage is now the in thing for Conservatives.

Glenn Beck is no longer against it. And Ann Coulture is now calling herself the “right-wing Judy Garland".

The pollsters did their thing and discovered that a) very few voters 30 and under give a toss about gay marriage and b) the majority of voters have come around to being at least "neutral" about gay marriage, if not "positive".

So, the conservatives had to find a new minority to pick on for this election season. Hello, Muslims & Mexicans!
