I really hate politics, on so many levels. At least a salesman has a product in his favor. Something tangible, something real. A politician works on belief. But his/her beliefs are less then that of religion. Religion may fail in the concrete evidence department, but still has a structure and system to follow. But politics? Squat, generally.

And the polls and pollsters make it worse, much, much worse. Four years ago, Bush rallied on the fact that Kerry had flipflopped on several issues. But the fact is, all politicos flipflop, merely due to polls. So not only are their beliefs fluid--they ability to even stay on topic for too long is at risk.

I mention this, because I follow gay issues so closely. Yeah, an oxymoronic statement. I hate politics; I follow gay issues on politics. But then again, I hate some kinds of food--so I do watch for them on my plate. Lately, the winds of change have swept gay issues up to the forefront. Now, again, we are a topic for warm debate amoung the hets...for some reason, they love to pretend they are God and vote on stuff for us.

I never had to vote on their marriage, but they'll gleefully vote against mine.

Digression, sorry. But the fact is, both candidates have been quite candid on this topic of gay marriage. Of course they will be. They have to be. They don't want any sail to catch the winds of their opinions. And by staying as neutral, they appear to not support gay marriage and equality for myself and my family.

But, wouldn't it be nice if that wasn't true. What if, in all honesty, their young nephew, who looks fantastic in a dress, has long been a good friend and, even tho they play ignorant, they are, through a series of false fronts and business dealings, have been helping gay marriage all along?

Now, that's simple enough, but here's my twist...they BOTH were supporting it? Now Palin, she's something of a ignorant schmuck, so even if she wanted to be my maid of honor, I'd piss on her shoes. But for the other three? Wouldn't that be most awesome?



IF you found out that something you've believed true was actually false, what would you hope it would be?
