Opposing gay marriage isn't gay bashing imo. And I thought Kerry was opposed to gay marriage. As Obama says he is. Surely Obama isn't a gay basher for that. In an interview with the Chicago Daily Tribune, Obama said, "I'm a Christian. And so, although I try not to have my religious beliefs dominate or determine my political views on this issue, I do believe that tradition, and my religious beliefs say that marriage is something sanctified between a man and a woman." lesbianlife.about.com ------------------------------------------------------- Are you not aware of the Harold Fords ads with the blond girl saying "call me harold", many beleive that negative ad cost Ford the senate seat.

The plan targeted racial bias in the building trades, setting "hiring goals" rather than "quotas," although distinctions between the two terms was never fully clarified. This contradicts popular attribution of affirmative action to Nixon's Democratic predecessors. encyclopedia.com -------------------------------------------------------
