LBGT's should vote Obama! Mccain has a horrible record with gay rights. We also can't expect Palin to be any better with her 12 century "sex after marriage" ideology.

Compare and contrast Obama's record with McCain's record regarding the matter if you could.

* Gay Marriage - Believes it's an issue best left up to the states. While in the Senate McCain voted "No" on a constitutional ban of same-sex marriage.
* Hate Crimes - While in the Senate, McCain voted no on extending the definition of hate crimes to include sexual orientation.
* Job Protection - Voted no on prohibiting job discrimination based upon sexual orientation.

Obama? God...I could say a million things about him! His position on gay rights is 10x more solid than mccains

Oh my gosh! I hadn't made up my mind until now, so I guess I'm going to vote McCain/Palin since I'm against advancing the LGBT agenda!

You don't think gays should have the same job opportunities?

DSR pretty much believes that if you aren't rich, straight, christian and white, then you should be working in the fields for 2 dollars a day.

Also doesn't believe that a homosexual couple has the right to visit their sick loved one in the hospital, either.

I must be a lot smarter than you since my chess rating is nearly 900 points higher. Only someone who isn't open minded, ignorant or probably a hick has a rating that hovers as low as yours does.

All this talk about gays voting for Obama reminds me of a chap I know who is gay but is fiscally conservative. He is voting for McCain.

He told me that he stands more to loose from Obama via tax increases than he does not being given "rights" of a married couple.

Edit: You see, he is one of those "rich" types who has a social responsibility to redistribute his wealth to people like me!!

Your gay friend is completely ignorant of the issues. He should feel ashamed.

It's not just about marriage rights. It's about extending the Matthew Shep act, sexual orientation discrimination, and on and on.

Things Mccain has no interest in advancing.

Your friend makes more than $206,000 per year? Good for him! I'm also one of the 5% of American's Obama will be raising taxes on, and I'm still voting for Obama. Why? Because I insist that in order to get my vote the Presidential candidate AND his/her VP pick need to know more about foreign policy than I do. If that makes me an elitist...please pass the Grey Poupon!

Palin does not know what the Bush Doctrine is, and she is the first VP candidate in 32 years to have never met a foreign head of state. That’s not change we can believe in.
