The Big Lies Part II: The Gays Are Coming For Your Families
Homosexuality has been with us since we climbed out of the trees. The work of humans who prefer the company of their own gender has contributed to what and where we are today as a civilization and cannot be denied, undone or unmade. To describe such people as abnormal or unusual is nothing more than a bald-faced lie.
We have nothing to fear and everything to gain from the normalization of homosexuality in our society. For a political party to manipulate the discomfort that some straight people fele about homosexual acts as a way to demonize the gay community and rally the party faithful is a disgusting and inhuman act. Thus, when I hear such sentiments expressed I conclude that the speaker is either rather uncomfortable in their own sexuality or a lying scumbag who will stop an nothing to achieve another step up the greasy political ladder.
As of October 1, the Iowa Secretary of State’s office reports that Democrats retain a voter registration advantage over Republicans of 105,447. The latest Iowa Poll shows his support with the Republican base is stronger than ever at 80 percent. What has to be troubling is that his approval among independents has dropped 11 points to 55% and dropped 24 points for Democrats leaving him at 42 percent approval. Those last two figures are key. While a majority of independents still narrowly approve of Senator Grassley, his approval among Democrats once net positive is now negative.
That is the kind of statistical landscape that makes people in the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee stop thinking about the Grassley seat as permanently ungettable and perk up and go, “with the right candidate, this is in play.”
I Got 99 Ideas But A Fiscal Policy Aint One
I’ve been waiting to write the Jay Z headline since I saw Chris Rants’ new website, 99ideas.org.
I’m sorry. Orange?! That’s a pretty bold choice there Mr. Rants. What are you saying? That if you win it will be some sort of Glorious Revolution? But, I digress…
After a couple strong doses of Iowa’s Dest Dutch Courage I think I can come out and admit it, a couple of these are quite interesting. First of all they mostly obey Anderson’s Dicta and do not mention tax cuts, gays or abortion. So props right there.
