Given Repugs aversion to minorities in general, and mixed relationships particularly.

At least three of those guys set my gaydar off.

[Beaverhausen]

[Connie_Corleone]

9. notes from a theatre "queen" on their choices:

West Side Story... notice that in the clip from AMERICA they drop a KEY lyric:

original;
EVERYTHING FREE IN AMERICA
FOR A SMALL FEE IN AMERICA

(they change SONDHEIM's lyric to:

EVERYTHING FREE IN AMERICA
I LIKE TO BE IN AMERICA

then, there's CHICAGO (ALL THAT JAZZ)

the song is about adultery, murder, drinking...

and then GUYS AND DOLLS (FUGUE FOR TINHORNS)

about GAMBLING... a little gift to Bill Bennett???

missed the rest... MADE ME SICK!

whole lotta wholesome VALUES in that little medley!
