And not all gays are democrats, lol..

I read somewhere that as many as 25% vote Republican. They're not likely to line up with the Republicans normally if they have come 'out'. Haven't seen a whole lot of Republicans pushing pro gay legislation since they tend to take a more traditional view when it comes to extending 'special' laws based on sexual orientation. The Democrats, on the other hand, think laws tailored specifically to the homosexual are so important they trump even the need to submit a federal budget, choosing instead to ram though the repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell, in the face of threats from Standard & Poor's to downgrade our credit rating. What's the budget of the United States of America when compared to gay rights? Obama's entire presidency will have come and gone and our nation's business community will still be languishing in uncnertainty due to a four year dereliction of duty by the Harry Reid led Senate. Who would have thunk it? Four years without a Federal budget.
