The election losses for gays and lesbians were stunning:
11 new state constitutional amendments banning same-sex marriage. Most of these actually make illegal civil union arrangements already in place!
The election of four new Republicans to the Senate, including two, Tom Coburn in Oklahoma and Jim DeMint in South Carolina, who unabashedly denigrate gays openly.
The re- election of President Bush, who has endorsed a federal constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage.
The ascendancy of an ever growing number of activist republican gays, who remarkably work and vote against their own civil rights, in favor of the right wing ideology of severly limited government and military expansion.

THE DNC IS DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE DEVELOPMENTS FOR TRYING TO OUT-REPUBLICAN THE REPUBLICANS AND RUNNING AWAY FROM GAY ISSUES!
DISGUSTED IN DETROIT
--the deletion of comments from this blog is absolutely against my goal of creating a space for open dialog.
The posting that has been deleted was so vile and obscene, I felt it did not serve the idea of open dialog whatsover.
I hope that any future deletions of posted comments will be unnecessary!
