Tired

As a gay American, there are a lot of things that I can be fed up with. The fact that I am a democrat by nature multiplies that frustration by ten. It is always in the height of the presidential campaign where the hatred along partisan lines always seems to build, and quite frankly, I'm growing tired of it all. There is just soomething about the GOP that makes my blood boil.

In the 2000-2004 campaigns, they used gay Americans as a wedge issue to steal the White House. They promoted hatred and bigotry by pushing gay marriage amendments onto local and state ballots. In doing so, they somehow convinced people that the world as we know it would end if we were to allow gay marriage. They claim to speak for God by pulling a couple of lines out of their man made bible and showing how God hates gay people. They conveniently ignore all of the "abominations" that apply to them and their kind and read the text the way they want it read.

I am one to say hear and now that I am TIRED of being labeled as liberal, elite, unpatriotic, ungodly, and any of the other perversions that the radical right tends to espouse in these times. Enough is enough. We may see the world from different viewpoints, but in this world of gray, there is simply no room for black and white. The radical right DOES NOT own the correct opinion of the world, the simply have their opinion. Who is to say who is right or wrong?
