Terry:
Actually I don't disagree with George's stance on gays. I do feel that marriage should be between a man and a woman. But what alarms me is that the Religious right would choose for:
- anti Gay,
- anti Stem Cell research,
- anti abortion,
- anti Arab (i.e. pro Isreal)
over
- mistaken killing of 100,000 Iraqis,
- tax breaks for the richest 2%,
- abandonment of Medicare, eductation, social secirity and the environment
If I knew that the religious right felt badly about the war in Iraq but anti-gay was more important, that would be one thing. But I honestly thing the religious right couldn't care less about Iraq or they may even support the war.
I am also concerned to hear that Ohio could have been won if the young people (under 30) and got out to vote. The ones who did were 60-40 in favour of Kerry but very few of them showed up. If they open up the draft, that may get the young people's attention so they will find the energy to stand in line to vote even if it is 2 hours in the rain because the voting machines don't work.
