lemasquegrisJudge Ronald Quidachay postponed his decision until friday on the matter of the City of San Francisco handing out licenses to same-sex couples.
Next to it, there was a link to a story about gay republicans.
A snippet from Jeffery Bissiri - "Gay rights ultimately will be won through the Republican Party because the only way we're going to win is when middle America gets it, and middle America is Republican,"
I agree, middle America is republican. Hell, anything east of Concord is GOP territory, IMO. However, it seems though middle America still has a problem with Americans of recent immigrant decent (moi) as well as signs of racism towards African Americans, any one of many Native American Nations, and women. Why do I say that? Well, I do occasionally get racially judged in *gasp* San Fran-fuckin-cisco. Not that I let it bother me too much. My point is that it seems other "topics of social acceptance" have yet to be fully realized in the entire U.S. and I don't think the GOP should be considered the point person on the charge towards unconditional acceptance.
Some people still have a problem with women in the workforce. (I've encountered such types, they exist.)
