		<description><![CDATA[Look, putting aside the merits or liabilities of being Conservative IN ALL OTHER AREAS than that of Gay Civil Rights, Under that specified heading, it is categorically not Conservatives who are on our side.

Troubling to me are those national Gay leaders who campaign touting Gay rights, some of whom I have personally donated to, taking in large amounts of Gay money, intended clearly to be for the use of said mission, AND THEN they turn around and present themselves in the Generally Conservative Arena using my Gay money promoting either themselves as a Conservative Candidate, or as an overall Conservative Promoter, who happens to be Gay.  Problem.  This is a misuse of the hard earned money of Gay Americans.

In an airplane emergency, we are told to put on our own air mask BEFORE helping others – makes sense!  You cannot help others if you yourself are endangered.  Surely there are a plethora of National issues all worthy of attention, but really, in the lives of Gays and Lesbians, is there truly any more important issue other than our rights.  The health, security and happiness of Gays and lesbians is important.

Our right to marriage, emotional benefits aside, are politically important in gaining all of the other needed protections and benefits for Gays and Lesbians.  Even Gays who do not ever care to be married are affected by the lesser financial status of Gay society overall.  It is Finances that make the Political Machine move. Currently Gays are financially oppressed because we do not receive the huge financial benefits which are currently only given to Straight couples.

If Gay folks ever want to have a society free or even freer of harassment and oppression, then it is strategically important that they and/or their friends gain the financial fortitude to devote toward Gay political movements.  This is a practical matter. Marital Status under the federal Government makes a difference of hundreds of thousands of dollars over a lifetime to the median wage earner.  Greater earnings means greater political power, directly.

Don’t be fooled into thinking that Coulter, or other National figures, are genuinely promoting Gays, but rather bolstering the ailing GOP.  The GOP will never help Gays, period.]]></description>
