what annoys me is that issues that are obvious conservative are now bieng presented as though they are not--anti-gay marriage initiatives are entirely, exclusively the purview of the far right. it is a disgusting issue as well.
i know many many christians who are not of that particular variant of christianity who are not opposed to folk who happen to be gay enjoying the same legal protections as anyone else.
the position is simply not one shared by other-than conservative folk--it is not identical with christianity as a whole...it is a particular position, advanced by particular people with a particular agenda in mind.
apparently emboldened in deatchment from reality by the conflating of a 3% margin with a vast popular mandate, folk from the right are now busily trying to act as though particular elements of their particular politics are somehow national issues.
