Comments on: Log Cabin Republicans Withhold Endorsement http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/archives/log_cabin_republicans_vote_to_withhold_endorsement_from_president_bush/ Online Journal of Politics and Foreign Affairs Wed, 25 Nov 2009 00:12:45 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: wes010 http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/archives/log_cabin_republicans_vote_to_withhold_endorsement_from_president_bush/comment-page-1/#comment-23531 wes010 Thu, 09 Sep 2004 21:01:57 +0000 /?p=7410#comment-23531 Can you expect any more from the homosexuals? To secure a new true love on the left, they would soon become socialists. Do the homosexuals ever really vote Republican? I suspect they vote for anyone they suspect will tear down the nation's morality to their own level. They pretend to be Republican just to attempt to corrupt the Republican party. When does the left leaning national press ever miss the opportunity to give these "Democrats in Drag" the air time to express their extremely micro-minority opinions? Can you expect any more from the homosexuals?

I think they're also down with working to deny civil unions or benefits for any same-sex couples: http://www.logcabin.org/logcabin/press_082604.html So, I'd say they're fighting against a political movement that would be working towards the revocation of existing legal recognitions apart from marriage, as well as benefits.

My problem is, I can't figure out what they're actually trying to achieve. If this lack of an endorsement helps them achieve their goals, then good on 'em.

The only reason it is an issue is because of the courts. If the Mass. courts did not act, then we would not have even seen this question being discussed anywhere. But, if the Log Cabin Republicans endorse any candidates who oppose same sex marriage (vast majority of politicians as far as I can tell), are they subject to charges of hypocrisy now that they have set this precedent?
