You still haven't responded to my post, which made his actual position abundantly clear. You're afraid gay people think Kerry favors some kind of federal approval of gay marriage? Then you're nuts. In my experience, gay people are marginally smarter than straights with similar backgrounds and education, probably because they spent their entire adolescence thinking more and harder about more difficult things that the rest of us do. As a result, very few of them are dumb enough to think that such a thing is possible. They will vote en masse for Kerry because he's the candidate who won't actively try to stab them in the back. Okay, poor choice of words. Some will vote for Nader, but Kerry can't get those people by promising them federal gay marriage.

DOMA was a symbolic stupid act. But K. opposing Gay marriage is much worse. If you're going to pander to Neaderthals- pander. I don't get why he would because the flip side of your "do you really think gays will vote for Bush" is that anyone would oppposes gay marriageain't voting for John John anyway. You speak alot about what disappoints you in the Reps. to me the failure to really stand up for what they believe disappoints me in the Dems. I feel gun control to make handguns much rarer would be very good. You know Gore/Kerry both agree. Their campaigns are all about what great hunters they are- they ain't going take your guns! Do you really think they will get a single vote out of this?
Gays seem smarter because the people who recognize they're gay are introspective enough to think about the question. The dumber queers haven't the brains to think through the question.
