In regards to GLBT issues (hence the post here) I am having difficulty in which should get my support. For varied but strong reasons I have decided, for me, it is one or the other and I am at the point that I will be deciding my vote based on who I am best served by in regards to GLBT issues.

To further narrow the issue, I do not ascribe a lack of a DOMA veto or the implementation of DODT by her husband to her. I had the pleasure of asking her personally about these issues at a casual and intimate dinner party way back when she was campaigning for her NY seat, and am comfortable with her answers and public evolution since then.

So I am wondering, which of these two wins on GLBT issues and why?

By participating in this thread it has been brought to my consciousness that my signature line "Say NO to Bush!" could be read sexist or misogynistic and hence offensive. Therefore I believe an explaination is in order. I believe Bush and bush (as in female genitialia, and over+grown pubic hair) is icky...because I am gay, a democrat, and neat. It is the poly-meanings here. You see I don't like B/bush. I do not like bush (or Bush for heavens sake) on my men. I do not like bush on a hen. I say, cut down on the B/bush and I like it when B/bush is cut down....although I do like most bushes, in the sense of those growing in dirt. Don't cut down those. But we should strive to leave Bush in the dust. I don't like dirty bushes (we should all cut down on those). And even thinking of a "dirty" Bush... Blech!

I do believe refering to someone as either/or a B/bush is insulting... As in "you're such a B/bush..." but if I chose to say that, it would say more about my democraticness/gayness then my sexist...ness. I just wanted to make clear that even if you are a "bush" or have a full grown bush (between your legs not under you window), I may not want to sleep with you-although I have slept under a bush outside a window once-that doesn't make you bad. Just in case you read my signature line... and thought "but I have/am/like/ bush(es) so he believes me inadequate...how rude" that isn't because I am sexist it is just because i am a gay, neat, democrat. Of course if you are, or you like Bush, you are icky and inadequate without regard to your posession or lack or fullness of bushiness and probably on the wrong board. Although being a Bush supporter I cannot support, being a bush supporter I just find confusing, unless it is in the tree hugging sense... That I get.... Hope that clears it up and removes all possibility for offense.
