Republicans hate gays
"The gay community has infiltrated the very centers of power in every area across this country, and they wield extreme power. ... That agenda is the greatest threat to our freedom that we face today. Why do you think we see the rationalization for abortion and multiple sexual partners? That's a gay agenda.'" - Tom Coburn, Republican US Senate candidate from Oklahama and chosen by George W. Bush to head his AIDS commission. From here via Atrios

LOL I'm not surprised one bit. The scariest part of this, I found, was:
"chosen by George W. Bush to head his AIDS commission". Veddy scary indeed.

Republicans hate gays. Missouri is bigoted. And in other news, the Pope is still Catholic and yes, Bill Cosby is still black.

Two is more than singular, in other words, plural. Plural of Republican is Republicans. Therefore "Republicans hate gays" is correct, just misleading. Misleading is normal in politics, especially in an election year.

Are you inferring "broad brush"?
Maybe he's just jump starting after the failure.

I thought Republicans only hated poor, homosexual, union member, secular gays that have had abortions?

I'm a Republican and I don't hate gays. Or poor people. Or secular people. Or even women who have had abortions. Union members, well okay. I hate them. A little. Sometimes.
I guess I need more brainwashing or something. |

I may be able to help you clarify your true political views.
