LOL! of course I have never seen the documentary. I have only heard of her twice in my life. Both times was when you brought her up. I'm sure she was terrified. From your description she had created all kinds of horrible scenarios. And it definitely sounds like a self-fulfilling prophecy to me...again, from your description. Are you suggesting that I am out there hurting gay women and men? LOL! You know, sometimes the delusions of liberals is just too freaking funny. A good friend of mine took me out for my birthday in July. My wife and son were there and so was her new girlfriend. This was the first time meeting the new girlfriend. I asked how they met. The new girlfriend answered...but instead of directing her answer to me, she looked straight at my son and told him the story of how they met. Making sure that he knew that they were romantically involved and not just softball buddies (how cliche'). Teri (my friend) and I laughed at the softball reference because that's how she meets all of her girlfriends. So then the new girlfriend turns to me and explains that the reason she is directing her response to my son instead of me is that she wants him to know that it is ok that they are a couple. Of course, her efforts were all for naught since he had already met 15 of Teri's previous girlfriends anyway and has no issues with anybody being gay. Instead, as a 13 year old, he was offended that she felt the need to talk down to him and was mostly bored with her monologue. I pointed out to her that one of his good friends has two moms, so he really didn't need to be taught by some stranger about gay people. Out of respect for Teri, I didn't mention that my son had met Teri's numerous girlfriends and actually liked most of them. And to top it off, my best friend all the way back from high school is gay. He was the best man in my wedding. I'm about as far away from a homophobic person as you can get. But that doesn't mean that I don't recognize that a lot of the victimization that the gay community claims is manufactured by individuals who have their own issues. Here's the truth, I don't give a damn about Chely Wright. She doesn't sound like the kind of person I would like. And she seems to recognize that she's done some shitty things that she regrets as a result of perceiving herself as a victim. For your next comedy act you should accuse me of being a racist.
