"LOG CABIN REPUBLICANS" are:

[Delano]

Poll question: "LOG CABIN REPUBLICANS" are:

"LOG CABIN REPUBLICANS*" are:


















*Group of gays who for some reason also have chosen to support the party that would eventually like to put them all in gas chambers.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

1. Mostly selfish rich white males

who don't care about gay rights, will lie about the source of fundamentalist influence in the Republican party, and simply want power like every other rich white male...the devil may care about other issues.

[Cornus]

9. Absolutely Right!

I know one and you've got him pegged. All he cares about is the extra $$$$ he'll get because of *'s tax cuts for the rich. He even plans on voting for * again...go figure.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

14. Believe me..because of the charity work I've done in the gay

community since the early 1980's...I have the demographic pegged.

[Bolo Boffin]

19. Bingo, and that's why I clicked other.

Of course, "astoundingly stupid" would work, but "selfish and obtuse" would have been the best answer.

[hippiegranny]

28. yep

that's it in a nutshell. a pocketbook voter. an "i got mine" voter. worst, many are pukes in order to fit in with the straights who will never accept them anyway. internalized self-hating homophobia at its most dangerous.

[Killarney]

2. I don't understand how someone could support a group that hates them.

That's why I don't understand how anyone could be a gay republican, black republican, maybe even female republican.

Why support people who want you to be a second-class citizen?

[shadu]

17. Kinda like Sam Kinnison's, "Christians against Christ."

it just don't add up

[noahmijo]

3. Aren't they pulling their support from Bush this year?

[Delano]

6. Yeah, that's what prompted me to run the poll.

I'm not impressed with that decision, since Bush is simply echoing the GOP position on gay rights (anti) for the last 25 years.

They've decided to dump Bush because he bashes gays slightly more than other repugs? Because he won't support gay marriage? How many other major repuke pols HAVE supported it? Snowe, Chafee? Anybody else?

[kiahzero]

4. Aren't Stockholm and Battered Spouse the same thing? (n/t)

[Delano]

10. I think the difference is...

Stockholm Syndrome victims begin to sympathize with their captors and believe in their cause.

Battered Spouse Syndrome is where the spouse gets constant abuse but keeps coming back for more.


It's a subtle distinction...

[terrya]

5. Very sadly deluded people....

If they think this Adminstration gives a flying fuck about their concerns.

[SkipNewarkDE]

7. Looking for approval and acceptance

Suffering from David Brock Syndrome... Looking for approval, and willing to be a total whore and sell out their group to get some deep-seated need for approval and acceptance satisfied.

Thankfully, David Brock got his head out of his ass and turned away from the dark side, but only after doing an awful lot of terrible hateful and damaging stuff.

[terrya]

11. I kind of feel sorry for Andrew Sullivan because of your reasons.

Sullivan has been anguished over Bush's support of the Federal Marriage Amendment. I bet they were laughing over it at the White House.

[SkipNewarkDE]

13. Bareback Andy

... is an even bigger whore in my opinion.

[Solon]

8. I picked all of the above...

and that would apply to all non-male, non-white, non-christian, non-rich supporter of the Repukablian party. (No that isn't a misspelling)

[Southsideirish]

12. They like dominant male authority figures. I used to work with a

gay Republican and one day there was a military parade through the downtown area which he attended. When he came back to work he was so thrilled after having seen all those guys in their uniforms.

[funkybutt]

15. Is it true that they claim that Lincoln was not only gay but..

was documented as always surrounding himself with young boys? (rumor i heard in conversation) Has anyone else heard this?? I browsed their website but i never found any such connection with Lincoln except for the well placed photo of the Lincoln memorial on the homepage banner.

[terrya]

16. Not about the young boys part. But Lincoln did have a relationship..

in his youth with a man named Joshua Speed. This was when Lincoln was a lawyer. There are extant letters between Lincoln and Speed that suggest there was, if not a sexual relationship, a warm and caring emotional relationship between the two men.

[Nevernose]

21. Warm and caring?

Definitely homosexual.
(/sarcasm)

[Skidmore]

18. Greedy

and self-centered, like most Rs.

[porphyrian]

20. Question

Are there any Lincoln Log Republicans? I really miss Lincoln Logs.

[Delano]

22. They still sell'em

I hurt my feet on my kids' Lincoln Logs all the time...

[funkybutt]

23. Lincoln Logs Rock

we could be Lincoln Log Dems :)

[indigobusiness]

24. So do log cabins...

Lincoln logs are wayyyy cool. Weren't they invented by Frank Lloyd Wright's son?

Lincoln Log Democrats for Kerry.

What's the alternative for Banana Republicans?

Plaintain Dems?

or Pottery Barn Dems?

What????

[jpgray]

25. Chickens for Colonel Sanders

That they displayed shock at Bush's policy toward homosexuals is grossly revealing of their naivete and/or arrogant selfishness.

[mac56]

27. Or "Retarded Death Row Convicts For Bush".

nm

[mac56]

26. I voted for "Stockholm syndrome".

Only because "closeted little trust-fund brats who lack the balls to come out to Pater and Mater" wasn't listed.
