		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;Dumb Gay that I am. I will go back to thinking about which trick I am going to hook up with, interior design and the fate of Project Runway.&lt;/i&gt;

Perhaps if you had spent less time demonstrating to the populace that thatâ€™s all gay liberals like yourself are capable of doing, they would have looked more favorably upon you.&lt;/blockquote&gt;Perhaps if jack----s like you, NDT, stopped perpetuating that vile lie, then fewer people would believe it, too.

But I think we all know how unlikely that is.

Again and again, you malign every last one of your opponents with the broad brush of &quot;[whorish, sleeping around, will screw anything that walks] gay liberal [whore]&quot;.  Don&#039;t you ever tire of living in a world [constructed in your mind] where you are such a paragon of virtue and all that is sweet and good and everyone else is just a base (not to mention EVIL) sex machine?

And don&#039;t even get me started on your explaining to people what they &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; think, despite any protestation to the contrary which they may make.</description>

		<description>#23: &quot;Go wallow in your self hate and tell yourself that you are better than us liberal gays, if you can still believe it after all your buddies just declared you a 2nd class citizen.&quot;

Dave, your problem with NDT isn&#039;t that he&#039;s wallowing in self-hate.  Your problem with NDT is that unlike you, he doesn&#039;t hate himself ENOUGH.</description>

		<description>No you NDT are nothing but a spoiled, rich, selfish  elite. Like I said go have cocktails with your buddies and complain about all us ghetto gays. You think you are so much better, but you are nothing but a rotten liar...you care more about your pocketbook than you do about having the right to marry someone you love. Go wallow in your self hate and tell yourself that you are better than us liberal gays, if you can still believe it after all your buddies just declared you a 2nd class citizen.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;I will not be shamed into thinking I am a second class citizen.&lt;/i&gt;

You already whine time and time again about how you ARE a second-class citizen.

I, on the other hand, think I am nothing of the sort, am quite actualized and pleased with what I have, thank you, and am quite annoyed by spoiled, bratty little children like yourself who insist on making everyone else share your imaginary misery.

The fact that you think yourself worthless without marriage is a commentary on your own self-image, not on the presence or absence of marriage. Find something other than your sexual orientation to make yourself worthwhile, and I doubt it will be a problem.</description>

		<description>ILC, Believe me I know.  I benefit from an excess of insulation, but my domestic partner doesn&#039;t so I&#039;m comfortable shirtless in 60 degree rooms and she&#039;s freezing.  Winter&#039;s not going to be fun.

Dave, down in the trenches... so much innuendo, so little bandwidth.</description>

		<description>You know what NDF I don&#039;t care. I am a liberal and proud of it. I will not be shamed into  thinking  I am a second class citizen. So you go off to your cocktail parties with your Republican friends who &quot;accept you&quot; as long as you don&#039;t ask for equal rights. I will stay here in the trenches demanding we all be treated equally.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Dumb Gay that I am. I will go back to thinking about which trick I am going to hook up with, interior design and the fate of Project Runway.&lt;/i&gt;

Perhaps if you had spent less time demonstrating to the populace that that&#039;s all gay liberals like yourself are capable of doing, they would have looked more favorably upon you.

When you grow up and act like an adult, you&#039;ll have adult responsibilities. But as long as you and your fellow liberal gays use your sexual orientation as an excuse for promiscuity, shallowness, and general irresponsibility, you&#039;ll be treated accordingly.</description>

Separate but equal....yeah that&#039;s right....I will shut up now and just be grateful the majority of fair all knowing mob allows me even that. Dumb Gay that I am. I will go back to thinking about which trick I am going to hook up with, interior design and the fate of Project Runway.</description>

		<description>Oh lord Dave.

Nobody has forced you back in the closet. No one has said you cant spend your life with whomever you wish. No ne is preventing you from drawing up contracts, holding a ceremony or even getting a pastor or rabbi to officiate. No one is even preventing you from entering the institution of marriage except for you. What they did was say that male-female couples do something unique for society that same sex couples cannot and thus should continue being uniquely regocnized for it.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The fact that you consider yourself a Republican and a Conservative, and then vote against the people and for the insane activist judges confirms to the average voter that homosexuals canâ€™t be trusted.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

That&#039;s a preposterous thing to say, Adrian.  When you vote on a ballot proposition, you &lt;i&gt;are&lt;/i&gt; &quot;the people.&quot;  Whatever your vote, you are affirming the voice of the people by the act of voting.</description>

		<description>Well it passed. Chickens in CA now have more rights than I do. I wonder if the &quot;majority&quot; will let me pick out what color carpet to put in the closet since that is where they want to put me. Anyway hurray for mob rule! I will just sit here quietly now waiting for someone to give me my equal rights.</description>

		<description>I voted no as well. I wasn&#039;t going to let liberal arrogance sway my vote out of spite. I have no personal stake in this, being straight, but I hope prop 8 fails, and gay couples will continue to have the right to marry.</description>

		<description>No on Prop 8 is about giving people, whether straight or gay, the right to marry (or not) the one they love.  Gay Patriot West, I&#039;m glad that you voted no on this proposition.  I&#039;m sure it was a difficult decision to make, and you voted on principle, even if it meant facing possible backlash from your readers.  I admire you for that.</description>
