1. I think if you want to get a better response post this in Meta as well.

2. Seems like what a typical Democrat might say

about prioritizing the rights of GLBT people in this country behind a plethora of other concerns, that somehow seem more important.

5. I posted it for this part,

'The issues you and I are talking about here, while important, are more importance to upper middle-class and lighter-skinned people'

[MNBrewer]

7. THat's what I mean

[joeybee12]

21. Yeah, I'm glad he speaks for ALL people of color and ALL lower-income people

to assume what they think also.

3. Basically the same argument that was used about not wanting to support marriage equality in 2008.

I'm over these assholes and they can kiss my rainbow colored ass.

4. Since you posted it why don't you just comment on it first.

[King_David]

6. See post 5

That was the part I found extremely offensive.

'The issues you and I are talking about here, while important, are more importance to upper middle-class and lighter-skinned people'

8. did you alert?

[King_David]

9. No,

Was just seeing if anyone else found it offensive,that is all.

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

11. Perhaps you should alert instead of getting others to do it for you.

[King_David]

12. Thanks for your advice,

And your contribution to the discussion.

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

14. You're very welcome, King D. Anything that I can do to help

you out of your conundrum. Any time.

[William769]

13. Thats not his style, but thanks anyway for your input or lack there of.

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

15. Opinions vary.

[William769]

16. And regular contributors to this group count more than someone that just shows up to...

Well you get my point.

Thanks for playing.

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

19. You're welcome, and again opinions vary.

[King_David]

18. Thank you Mr.

10. Eh, chavista tunnel vision.

[Fearless]

17. I'd say the following.

I don't give a crap about Chavez. He is a politician and like all politicians are more beholden to the act of obtaining and maintaining power than the issues that an activist would support. Politicians favor power. Activists favor issues.

In terms of the LGBT issue itself, I again don't give a crap what Chavez thinks. Again, he's a politician and doesn't care about us unless it profits him.

And finally, on the issue of LGBT apologists. Anyone who suggests that we should take a backseat or who suggest that we should "get to the back of the bus" to borrow the phrase, I have absolutely no respect for.

In conclusion, the OP is a little looney. The end.

20. Posts like that always scream to me

"Democrats: Can't Walk & Chew Bubblegum at the Same Time!"

22. no comment

it's just not appropriate for us to criticize other countries when this place is so screwed up.
