But the gay conservatives I know fight back instead of going into a corner and curling up in fetal position like this guy did. While the video is a humorous lampooning of the gay left, it is a sad commentary on conservatives as nerdy wimps.
Yep… That is what it was like when I told my gay friends at a bar that I was probably going to vote for Bush in 2000. Except 10 fold worse. I had no back-up. I was alone and had to fend for myself.
During and after the recount in 2000, gay lefties made plenty of below the belt comments in regards to my Republican views. Anyway, on Inauguration Night in 2001, several of us Gay GOP members went to the famous JR’s in DC. We didn’t have to say a word, but our tuxedos said it all to them. “F**K you, you shallow A**holes.” I felt so good standing up to all of them.
As I keep asking the liberal gays I know — “what on earth does gayness have to do with being a big government liberal?” They have no answer, really, except, the “Democrats are for us.” Oh really? Clinton signed DOMA and DADT into law, Democrat Ruben Diaz held a rally in the Bronx with his fellow Democrats that essentially said “gays are worthy of death.” And all the Democratic run states of the Old South kept their sodomy laws until the last possible moment. So I ask them “how can you be a Democrat when two core constituencies of the Dems are African-Americans and Latinos, seem to be quite against gay folks. And Obama said repeatedly in the ’08 debates: I’m against gay marriage.” So I ask “Are you sure that party is for us? Are are both parties still evolving?”
So you go talk to your party, you Dem-gays, and I’ll go talk to mine.
As for fighting back, here’s a sweet memory — back in the 1st Reagan term I was at NYU, and the lefty professor was droning on about the wonders of socialist health care in Eastern Europe. So I blurted out “that’s not what my Uncle John says.” And the professor got all smarmy — “and who is this Uncle John of yours?” — thinking he had me.
“He’s Dr. Jan Klima, head of all the pediatrician hospital departments in Prague, he’s a card carrying member of the communist party, because he has to be — he’s coming to America in a month, shall I bring him in for show and tell? — his English is good enough, I can translate the sticky parts.” My offer was not accepted.
Maybe it helped to have slews of relatives all across the Czech Republic to truly understand the bizarre reality of the liberal socialist state. I note too, that his weekend, starting Nov 17th, is the anniversary of the “Occupy Prague for Capitalism” rallies 22 years ago that swept away communism within weeks as 200,000 to 400,000 people came out everyday in protest against the 1% running the place. The American media did not feel fit to report this bit of history while our own few hundred Occupiers preach for communism. Hypocrites and fools.
Reminds me of a night I went out in 08. I was dancing with a small group when someone asked me if I wanted Hillary or Obama. I said neither. One guy said, “You like McCain????!!!!” and before I could say anything else they had turned their backs on me and walked away.

That’s the open-mindedness of the gay left. Now, if I was a gay kiling, woman oppressing radical Muslim, they’d have invited me back to their place. ha ha.

that was excellent…when i get around other gay people i guess i just keep my mouth shut for fear of that kind of reaction (since i have had that reaction before although less dramatic)…thanks for sharing.

I’ve come to the conclusion that liberals don’t like to solve problems. Instead, they like to talk about them in the hope that it’ll be enough to keep gays voting for their party.

It’s kinda funny (in a sad, “wow everyone’s stupid except me” kinda way) how every single group that feels “oppressed” or “outcast” is always so quick to put limitations on how “their kind” can act. Don’t vote left wing? Well then you can’t be gay or black, you’re just a self hater or an Uncle Tom. I would love just once not only to know why being born with a sexual orientation or a non-white skin color is the sole determining factor in what political views you’re allowed to have but how people who think that aren’t ever called out on being total bigots.
Anti-gay Republican and anti-gay conservative/libertarian prejudice IS anti-gay prejudice. Period.
It upsets all my liberal friends (gay and straight) when I say this. But it is true. Either we have the right to think for ourselves, just like straight people do, or we have no rights at all.
Someone who only supports you when you do exactly what they say is an abuser and an exploited. When faced with this situation, there are one of two options: either acknowledge that the person you’ve put a tremendous amount of time, energy, or money into is an abuser and walk away…..or blame other people for making them abusive.
No surprise that plantation gays choose the latter.

I’ve had this happen, once. He was a perfectly pleasant fellow, until the topic turned to politics. I actually broke it off, though–once, when I was depressed, he tried to comfort me with a speech that gelled into an unprovoked anti-Palin pogrom. I didn’t begrudge him his politics, it’s just that he pursued his politics tastelessly.

The most striking contrast, to me, between gay conservatives and gay liberals is that gay[specific issues are the most important issues and in some cases the only ones that even matter. Conservatives tend to focus first on economics and smaller government.

What self-respecting guy would go to a tampon fest like Lilith Fair?
Eliot seems like a cross between that Antonio Treatment dude and Kevin Smith.
I know people like that.

Fighting back wasn’t really necessary when the dimples guy was doing a good enough job hanging himself.

Sonic, I’ve been there. Boy, have I been there.
funny video, and it shows how intolerant gays can be, when so many of us claim everyone else is being intolerant
I have never seen any gay conservative wear that kind of sweater – sort of threw me out of the moment. Otherwise – entertaining.

My liberal little brother once told me I needed to think “outside the box”!
I replied “I’m a gay man and voted for George W Bush…. How much farther outside the box do you want me to go????”!
Anti-gay Republican and anti-gay conservative/libertarian prejudice IS anti-gay prejudice. Period.
It upsets all my liberal friends (gay and straight) when I say this. But it is true. Either we have the right to think for ourselves, just like straight people do, or we have no rights at all.
I put it this way: gay and lesbian liberals are as hateful and intolerant as they are because they are very well aware of what their Obama Party massas do to those who dare disagree with them.

When faced with this situation, there are one of two options: either acknowledge that the person you’ve put a tremendous amount of time, energy, or money into is an abuser and walk away…..or blame other people for making them abusive.
