It starts in two hours! I know Loft will be watching! I'm looking forward to it, and I'm glad the chief of the DNC stepped down. She needed to go. I knew she was not a nice person way before those emails came out, but I don't think that will have any impact on the election. EDIT: and the headline on CNN right now is "Russia meddling with the election?" Edited by Adytus, Jul 25 2016, 07:22 PM.

Donald Trump: After the Supreme Court ruling of two years ago, said he disagreed with the ruling and made an analogy about gay people to his dislike of certain golf putters; Has supported the First Amendment Defense Act, widely recognized to be an excuse to discriminate against minorities, including gay people; Suggested he would appoint judges to overturn the gay marriage decision; His running mate: Signed a vehemently anti-gay law in Indiana; Once said "societal collapse was always brought about following an advent of the deterioration of marriage and family;" Voted against the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, saying "wages war on freedom and religion in the workplace;" Opposed the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell; Edited by Funkadelia, Aug 3 2016, 09:54 AM.

Just because he can find a self-hating 'gay' Republican to support his theocratic agenda doesn't make his plans to eliminate same sex marriage, his anti-gay rights law, and his policy of gay conversion therapy on people any less disgusting. It will do him in, if he tries it.*Read his platform, it is stuck in the 1950s. I don't like Clinton, but I would never be caught dead voting Trump, it would not only be voting against my interests, but electing a President that wants to turn back the clock on gay rights. *Link: http://www.pewforum.org/2016/05/12/changing-attitudes-on-gay-marriage/
Pence is also a major advocate of gay conversion therapy, and wants to force US taxpayers to fund it in the Federal budget. Even though gay conversion therapy is a pseudo-science, psychologically harmful, and just plan ineffective: http://www.hrc.org/resources/the-lies-and-dangers-of-reparative-therapy Not to mention a total violation of the separation of church and state, with the whole establishment of a religion in government policy thing.

Pence is backwards, the anti-gay rhetoric in the platform is backwards. |

We can't fund affordable health care for women but we can fund torture for gay people. Edited by Funkadelia, Aug 3 2016, 07:23 PM.

Yep. Trump and the GOP want a poverty-stricken utopia, where abortion is illegal, and where contraception isn't covered or is prohibitively expensive. Kind of like what is parodied in this Monty Python clip: Edited by New Rogernomics, Aug 3 2016, 08:00 PM.
