I remember Jim West. The good, open minded, diversity worshiping Spokane libs hounded this fag literally to his grave. It was honestly one of the most disturbing things to watch that I can remember. No matter his politics, his sexuality, his whatever, watching this guy die just a little bit every day was just...sad, I guess. And the glee of his opponents while it was happening.

You've proven my point quite nicely, tho. No speaking of real issues. Just naming a few weak individuals on the other side makes you right, doesn't it? The only problem with this game plan is that there's no shortage of folks with the same weaknesses on your side. That's the problem with people, no? They're not perfect. But I guess it works when you don't have anything real to say. It makes just enough white noise to drown out the real issues. You and Coke have fun with this. You deserve each other.

It sounds better to claim that the he was hounded because he was gay, and not because of his policies doesn't it. Don't let the facts get in the way.

Why didn't YOU take the time to defend the issues he was supporting instead of taking the low road and claim it was about his sexuality? Nobody twisted your arm and forced you to ignore the bills he supported or the real politics of the issues he sponsored and discuss his sexuality instead. You could have championed his agenda and kept sexuality out of it, couldn't you have? Why don't you prove your own points? Then again, I guess you really did prove your point didn't you? Nobody, including you wants to discuss the issues when you can talk about homosexuality instead. Does that mean Coke and I deserve you as well?



P.S. I got a few more repubs from up your way with similar stories, but I'm waiting for Coke to come back. Please feel free to jump in and obfuscate the issues and discuss only the lurid non-political points about them as well if it pleases you.

I'm not sure where I ever said the Klan doesn't exist. You can cite it, I'm sure. I'm talking the Klan of today, you're talking the klan of 20 years ago. That's fine. Why don't you hit some Klan sites and tell us about every core value that matches the GOP's. I'll give you some help. Making Oregon, Washington and Idaho a white only homeland. Definitely a core GOP belief. Nice try. I guess. Actually not. Here's another: that fucking Israel hating GOP. They've done everything they can to bring down the one outpost of democracy in that God forsaken part of the world. Oh, the GOP hates Catholics, too. Just like the Klan. Don't they?

The Jim West thing was on the local news in my area every night. When he was in the legislature, he supported the bills of which you speak. He wasn't outed yet, by the way. And he wasn't recalled from the mayor's office for these bills he supported. Here's where it gets fun, EY. The "low road" was why he was recalled. A convict made allegations that West (and another guy...like a county sheriff or deputy or something) had molested him at a Boy Scout, or youth ranch, or something like that 20 years before...when David Duke was somebody. The local paper worked the story for like a year, with no evidence he had diddled this guy. The other guy accused had beeh convicted at the time of the crime and put a shotgun in his mouth not long after.

Then either the local paper or the local alt paper heard that he may have been offering unpaid city gigs to young adult homos. Oh, and accessing gay.com on City computers to meet young fellers on the Interwebs. They ran a To Catch a Predator thing, and yup. Sure as shit he was doing personal shit on a work computer. The horror!! This guy was run out of office because he was a fag. But not a normal fag. He was a fag in the GOP, semi- closeted, who supported non- gay- agenda legislation. It was a feeding frenzy. I'm not taking the low road, as you say. This is what happened. Nice try.

I really don't care what other politicians in my area are fags, or wife swappers, or porn addicts, or guys who wear condoms when they fap because goop's just "ickey". But I'll quick play your game. Everyone in Idaho has known forever that Larry Craig was a fag, so the restroom thing was no surprise. Yet for however long, he kept getting elected. Because he supported guns and low taxes. I never once heard him say he wanted Idaho as part of whites only homeland. Maybe that was at the "secret society" meetings. I know he addressed the local Lions Club pretty often.

I actually did respect you, EY. Your posts are funny and biting and kooky and you carry yoursels as a kind of wannabe intellectual...like me. But if you really think the Klan and the GOP are one in the same...well, shit, man. That's black helicopter time.

Sure, I suppose me and you and Coke do deserve each other. Look at where we're having this arguement.

Looking forward to hearing more about people's foibles rather than issues. I know you won't let me down.
