Gays to Leave Democrats Alone at the Altar?
Culture 12:41 PM
In the March issue of Out Magazine, writer Josh Kilmer-Purcell rights about the relationship between the Democratic Party and the GLBT community.
His hilarious editorial hits with laser-like accuracy at the codependent relationship between the two groups, and how he feels about it.
Kilmer-Purcell writes, "Yes, we homo helpers did get change back from our dollars. Whereas previously we were thrown under the bus by Republicans, now we're being thrown under the bus by Democrats...
"Mark my words, in the next couple of years a savvy Republican will see the group of us dateless wallflowers standing under the bleachers and ask us to dance. Republicans wooed Hispanic voters a decade ago after Bill Clinton sent that Cuban kid packing, which gave them the edge to win (sort of) two back-to-back elections. Granted the GOP later ditched them in the parking lot after they got their rocks off.
"But still, I'd rather get screwed in the parking lot by someone who wants me than pay money to help bigots pitch their big tents."
Agree or disagree, this is a great and short read. Leave the man a comment either way. It's well worth your time.
