Choir directors come to mind, but lets not go there.<BR/><BR/>Oh Brother: It's not so much that Mark works for McCain, it's that he is putting time and effort into his job which is to help McCain prommote inequality. that is where the problem is. Now, another question, this is his Senate chief of staff, not his campaign chief, so is he paid by tax payer money? I hate for my taxes to be working against me,in a hypocritic way, although I know that Bush and every other official are paid by tax money, and they (pres and legislature) work against me quite often.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10842576168520693461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1677108722778516534.post-87355122760319885282008-09-22T16:08:00.000-06:002008-09-22T16:08:00.000-06:00"Our community is an invisible one"The gay guys an..."Our community is an invisible one"<BR/><BR/>The gay guys and gals I know are hardly invisible (well most aren't). Gay people in the professional world are more open and successful than ever and I see them becoming more accepted for who they are, at least in the white collar world. It isn't perfect, far from it, but it is getting better I believe and I hope that it begins to get better in the blue collar world. I see some inroads being made there but it's going to take time.<BR/><BR/>"straight people want to keep us that way"<BR/><BR/>Not this straighty. If your gay, come on out and join the party.<BR/><BR/>Now if Mark wants to work for someone who doesn't support equality for LGBT people then that's his problem (or prerogative). I have known gay people that do not support gay marriage or the right for gay people to adopt. I don't quite understand why but they just don't. Maybe Mark falls into this category.<BR/><BR/>I am more concerned with his lobbyist ties (per the News article from today).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1677108722778516534.post-82923998889754405322008-09-22T15:40:00.000-06:002008-09-22T15:40:00.000-06:00I hate to tell you there are hundreds of gays and ...I hate to tell you there are hundreds of gays and lesbian who work for people that promote hatred and even help them to carry out their jobs. Our community is an invisible one that likes to hide and straight people want to keep us that way.

The question is, If John McCain deosn't think people should have premarital sex, and is opposed to gay marriage, does that mean he thinks gay people should never have sex?<BR/><BR/>I wonder how Mark Buse would answer that question.Treyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07478196030900709223noreply@blogger.com
