Today’s New York Times ran an article by Sarah Wheaton entitled “Republican and Lesbian, and Fighting for Acceptance of Both Identities.” The article discussed the efforts of Sarah Longwell, a Log Cabin Republican, to win acceptance of gays by the Republican Party.
The article notes that many of the conservative gays came out late in life. Some of them are religious. They want the party to be more accepting.
Here’s my message to gay Republicans. The Republican Party doesn’t want you. They think you are evil. The Democrats do want you. We think your sexual orientation is not a government issue. If you want to marry your significant other, we think you should have that right. We like you. Forget those right-wing creeps who degrade you, demean you, and castigate you. Come on over to the party that welcomes you. Re-register as a Democrat. It’s an easy choice to make.
