I call on the moderator to intervene and remove the posts that are nothing but personal abuse. I've tried to keep the discussion at a high level. But the responses have take the form of insults directed at me personally. Words like "looney" or "gullible" or "fascist" or "zombie" are directed at me as though they addressed the topic.

May we once again get back on track? I say that the right wing provides political cover for homophobes, and that George Bush will be bad for gays. We ought to be able to discuss this like civilized people. Maybe the gay right really is as oxymoronic as it sounds.
