If your concern for tax policy trumps your concern for domestic human rights, fine. But you don't get a pass at my cocktail parties because it wasn't your voting issue --- people don't get to vote for Mussolini because they really like his transportation policy and they ride the train every day.

Atticus, you must realize this is overwrought.
Kerry doesn't favor gay marriage. Why?
The Dems pay lip service to "helping the cities" which means trying to help poor blacks, but they do it in ways that they know won't work. Why?
Because they want votes. Its all pandering.
all thats fucked now is your party is so far off the path that we own the WH and both houses of congress so our wingnuts actually believe there's a reason to debate the non-homo marriage amendment.
what does a completely Dem governement do? well oakland wants to ban all corporate coffee houses. want to defend that?
