To the OP, I have many gay friends in Sarasota, my best friend is a lifelong resident. Sarasota is very gay friendly.
Have you thought about seeking your party's nomination? I suspect you'd stand a better chance than your current trainwrecky guy stumbling around with his foot in his mouth all the time making Biden look like a great orator.

But really, if more people in the GOP were like you, there would be a roughly zero percent chance Obama could be re-elected, and, even better, I might even consider registering myself.

Which would be a very good thing for your party, I assure you.

Most of the republicans I know, have the same beliefs. I think Romney has a zero chance of being elected. He's everything that is wrong with the republican party; scary, uber Christian, rich white guy.

that's not what he meant so i didn't point that out, of course many same-sex couples have children.

ya know I almost forget there are people like gettinoutofjersey out there for real, i guess that's good - it is not an element I encounter in my day-to-day but it's probably important to remember they are out there

WAIT!!! Now, where are all the people who complained during the thread about destroying campaign signs, saying that we can't get political here & were SO offended about it?! Any of you going to run to the mods now & have this thread locked too?

Yea, didn't think so...

There is only one valid reason gettinoutofthecloset is thinking about gays this much. If he were straight, & sure of it, he would not be STILL thinking about and commenting about gays.
People who keep making derogatory comments are deflecting away from their true feelings, that they can't come to terms with.
Come out gettinoutofthecloset, it's ok.

Is that what your mother and father did? That explains why your real feelings disturb you and make you hostile.
Another piece to the puzzle.

Thread closed. These kinds of comments (and there were more than one that had to be removed) are not the spirit of this thread or of city-data as a whole.
