Gays as political firewood

Posted by Raznor

Good post over at Big Queer Blog entitled Throw some fags at it:

Personally, Big Mouth is most disappointed in sometime ally Arlen Specter. Considering that Mr. Specter himself admits the amendment will never pass, it seems like the usually free-thinking Senator has decided to play politics and throw his party a bone. Despite his opposition to the amendment, allowing the proposal to leave Committee and open discussion on the Senate floor guarantees that it will become an issue for the November 2006 elections. The disappointment just keeps on mounting and I'm convinced that in the current political climate that we can never consider an elected Republican official an ally; they will always be pandering political pandas. They will always throw queer people and their rights to the dogs the minute their careers are threatened.
