"Gays who donate money to the Republicans are helping reverse the gains of the past two decades."
Gays who donate money to a political party that is more openly anti-gay (as the Republicans are) than any other major political party running for office in America today have a different set of priorities.
Money is the issue here, Dwight -- or the fear of losing it. I think a lot of people feel increasingly threatened by the conservative swing that is sweeping the nation. Times are tough. People seem to believe that the Republicans will promise them lots of green. The rest will take care of itself in their eyes. This isn't the case. But, you are dealing with a lot of denial and fear here.
On the other side, there are a lot of gay sell-outs who enjoy the ivory towers that they are living in right now. To Hell with everyone else as long as they can continue to take their pleasure cruises several times a year and live in "nice" neighborhoods without being confronted by any "riff-raff."
It's a tough nut to crack, Dwight.
