Four years ago, I was on several levels convinced that there were no other gay conservatives out there. GayPatriot has been a welcome community for me and an opportunity to show the rest of the world that, yes, Virginia, there ARE gay people whose sexual orientation doesn’t turn them into liberal antimilitary moonbats.

I hope your son visits — and you, of course, are more than welcome here.

If he isn’t filled with resentment from real or imagined childhood angst, and if he is a rational person.. then I suspect you won’t notice much different about him.

However, if you think he’s harboring some victimization angst or if he thinks the United States is no better than Iran, then I would say you might want to talk very honestly with him about his inner-most feelings.

One of these days, the Democrat Party is going to realize that if most Hispanics wanted Democrat socialist and leftist economic theory-based governments that blamed the rich and business for all of society’s problems, they would have stayed in the countries they left.

But then again, when you’re in denial about what leftist and socialist economic theories do to a country, you can see why they would miss that.

FL will most likely be counted as is, there is just no reason not too. They all were on the ballot, no one campaigned there either. Obama was riding his South Carolina win and his big, useless, Kennedy endorsement was all over the news. He still lost, FL dems just didn’t care for him.

MI is going to be a terrible to deal with, I would say just send the delegation and let them vote how they choose. Obama and Clinton will do their best to win over the largest amount of them.

The fact of the matter is, she will fight for this because she, like a lot of us, don’t believe Obama can win. Everyone talks about her thinking more about the party than herself, well…some of us believe she is trying to save the party from itself.

But she expects to roll up popular votes in a Dem contest in Puerto Rico, a territory with NO electoral votes in the fall.

You can’t have your cake and eat it too. If the rules are to be broken to count the popular votes in disqualified contests in FL an MI, because they represent EVs that the Dems can’t afford to write off, what’s your rationale for counting popular votes that represent no EVs?

Just what plan Doctor Dean has for avoiding a Fort Marcy Park epiphany, is not known to me. When it comes to Hillary Clinton, I do not think that Doctor Dean understands the sophistication required when you set out to shove 20 feet of red hot chain up the ass of a wild cat that has a toothache and hot flashes.

I wonder if the Democrats will decide not to televise the riotsconvention?

If we were dealing with a person who was sensitive to the appropriate tone and the social realities, we might deign a glance of appraisal - might advise on the less than perfectly harmonious interplay of colors, the faulty juxtapositions of narrative mood. After all, one of the obligations placed upon our selves is the cultural improvement of our lessers. But one is disinclined to cast pearls before upstarts. No, indeed, we withdraw.

There are places where the elevated patronage of vaunted habitues of Instapundit is sufficiently recognized and observed. At such a place you may attend me.

Another Dem governor may lose his job
Ed Waage

Illinois Democrat Governor Rod Blagojevich is facing impeachment talk from within his own party in the wake of the plea agreement of Rezko pal Ali Ata. The Chicago Sun-Times reports
The impeachment drumbeat at the Statehouse grew louder Wednesday, a day after the blockbuster accusation by a former state official that he got his state job after pouring money into Gov. Blagojevich’s campaign fund — including a $25,000 check in an envelope he presented to the governor.

Two House Democrats said discussions on a possible impeachment resolution targeting Blagojevich accelerated after Tuesday’s disclosure by Ali Ata, whom the governor appointed to a $127,000-a-year post running the Illinois Finance Authority.
Only a month ago, Democrat Eliot Spitzer resigned as Governor of New York when a Federal investigation into possible money laundering led to Spitzer’s involvement with a prostitute. Spitzer resigned after he checked with leaders in the New York legislature who informed him that impeachment would be forthcoming if he failed to resign. Blagojevich may find himself in the same situation as his own party is starting to revolt against him.

Blagojevich does have a strong supporter in Illinois Senate President Emil Jones. It was Jones who thwarted an effort recently by the Illinois House to put a constitutional amendment on the November ballot to allow a recall of key elective officers by the voters (currently, only the legislature can remove a Governor). The Blagojevich administration has helped Jones’ wife, Lorrie Rickman Jones, secure a plum job in the Illinois Department of Public Health two months before Jones married her and a $70,000 raise after he married her. It was also Jones, a Democrat, who helped Obama in his rise to power in the Illinois Senate and thence to the US Senate

I’m a one-issue voter this year and I would not feel at all safe or confident in either Clinton or Obama, much less their advisors, having charge of national security and defense.
