re: #58 Racer X

I kinda agree with Walter on this one. If more in the GOP are exposed as being gay, it should help with the acceptance of homosexuals by the far right.

Now the drunk driving is another matter entirely, and this guy should be punished severely for that.

I agree with you. But I would change the words “exposed as” to “proudly and openly”

The shift in acceptance of homosexuality has happened as more and more people have voluntarily (and involuntarily as you note) come out. Its one thing to hate on some scary group of guys that hangout at scary bars and do bad things. Its another thing entirely to hate on your friends, family, colleagues, and, in this case, members of your political party.
