A Republican lesbian??!?!?!?!


Carla's parents are talking in their boat and the father comments that none of their daughters are Democrats. Recall that one daughter is gay, which makes her a Republican lesbian?!?!?!?!?! Now you KNOW this is a work of fiction.

Are lesbians even ALLOWED to be Republicans? Someone loses their "Ellen" toaster if that happens.

Well, I suppose if there HAS to be ONE, we could do worse...

Well I am a gay republican. I was raised in Louisiana in a republican household and have always been a lesbian. In Denver all my friends think I'm nuts. Of course I do a have a bit of good sense and have my "Republicans for Obama" sticker on my car.

I do have many republican (& some democratic) values.

While uncommon, it's not unheard of.

I've got a gay male buddy whose a strong Republican.

You've obviously not heard of the Log Cabin Republicans. Google them.

ETA: In fact, they recently announced that they're endorsing McCain this election.

That's what I said to my boyfriend when we were watching.

She's a lesbian, but she'd vote for Bush. Yeah. Right.

A few years ago there was documentary made called Elephant in the Room which focused on Gay Republicans. The people in the documentary were conservative on economic issues, guns and social issues such as abortion.

Why do some people assume someone who's "not a Democrat" MUST be a Republican and someone who's "not a Republican" MUST be a Democrat? They're just political parties. People don't HAVE to be either one. It seems to me some people are just too quick to over associate political party affiliation with the difference between liberal views and conservative views. Yes, traditionally, Republicans tend be more socially conservative and Democrats more socially liberal, but it's not ALWAYS like that. Whether a person's views are more to the side of liberal or conservative, many people just see things as right and wrong, not Republican and Democrat.

I agree, while I probably hold more Democratic views overall, I refuse to support this bipartisan government and therefore I am registered independent. I vote for the candidate not for the party.

Tammy Bruce is a lesbian and a conservative. I love it when she subs for Laura Ingram.

reply

As usually a Democrat who lives in the cave of their own twisted mind

I'd rather go hunting with Dick Cheney, than driving with Ted Kennedy
