Well, of course...she's a bigot and feels more comfy among the
gay-hating Republican bigots.

Unfortunately homophobia is a bipartisan activity.

Blue collar democrats and latinos are not big on gay people either.
Bill and Hillary only "evolved" in recent years.
Remember who signed DOMA.

I still think the answer is to get the government out of the marriage
business and let it be the religious ceremony it always was.
There are far more efficient ways to deal with the legal issues.



The issue, I posit, is the number/percentage of homophobic public
officials who push their anti-gay beliefs on the freedoms and rights of
others. With that criteria in mind, Republican bigots far outnumber
Democratic bigots. In fact, Republican bigots far outnumber Democratic
bigots on just about every "social" issue and "rights" issue. The GOP
*is* the party of bigotry and hatred.


If that was true, they could win these fights legislatively and not
have to resort to the courts


It is the courts, typically, that pull the righties up by the pubic
hairs on these issues. They try to pass or maintain homophobic laws, but
usually the courts tell them to go **** themselves. But not only, and
only fairly recently.
