Well, it's just that we know they always drag out a couple of issues whenever they want to turn the 'left' against someone who is actually having an impact. Best way to destroy them, in THEIR opinion, is to accuse them of being anti-women and/or gays. So sick of women and gays being used for political purposes by people, talking about politicians here to be clear, when they vote against everything that would make women's and other minorities' lives easier.

Just my opinion from a lot of observervation.
