I've kept up on the hateful rhetoric on DFO, BRO, and gayrightswatch.com.<BR/><BR/>You guys accuse others of what you regularly subscribe to- hate speech. Look in the mirror of your own web site. <BR/><BR/>Your post titles say it all:<BR/><BR/>"Bow down bitches, the Queen is here"<BR/><BR/>"Karen Minnis, I'll just say it: a bitch is a bitch" <BR/><BR/>Let's face it. You guys can't win your civil rights argument on its merits. That's why you resort to the politics of personal destruction, name calling, the use of the terms "homophobe", "bitch", "haters", etc. You guys don't like democracy. You want to stifle debate with those terms. So when you talk about the destruction of democracy, look in the mirror.<BR/><BR/>The only "huge" organization of coalitions that are attempting to knock off Minnis are the Deaniacs of "Democracy for Oregon" and local and national gay rights groups. Not exactly your moderate, well rounded, diverse and tolerant bunch. But hey, it's politics, and y'all are welcome to give east county your best shot.Troutdale Canfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06375969734809182354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12885435.post-1132782028026346232005-11-23T13:40:00.000-08:002005-11-23T13:40:00.000-08:00Just for reference... to read more about the destr...Just for reference... to read more about the destruction of democracy by Minnis, here is a great link:<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.gayrightswatch.com/topics/karen-minnis.html" REL="nofollow">Gay Rights Watch - Karen Minnis</A><BR/><BR/>You also need to understand that there is a HUGE coalition of organizations - INCLUDING republicans that will be working to take Minnis out of office. For you to try and spin it as gay activists being the only ones is simply ridiculous--and you know that.<BR/><BR/>On the other hand it's nice to know that I am in the gay mafia. If you find your car painted pink tomorrow morning you'll know who did it.
