I'm not pissing on you. It's the right wingers who are pissing on you. I have to defend you folk from them CONSTANTLY.
You know what. It gets annoying for moderates to DEFEND homosexuals in front of right winger AND THEN have to defend THEMSELVES in the presence of homosexuals.
One might think a THANK YOU would be in order for towing your water with conservatives.
Honestly, I'm sick of all this moderate bashing by gays. Maybe we should all just give up and let the fundamentalists have at you."

Dig that last line. 'Moderate bashing' is what they always claim is happening when their right wing views are rejected by Democrats.
