Concerned about gay NFL players? GOP is on it

Yes, both parties do use lobbying firms. But it is hard to imagine any current Dem legislator who would align themselves with the idiotic legislation proposed by Mr. Burkman. GOP, not so much.
Get back to us when Republicans do. In the meantime, keep responding to the dog whistle. And whatever you do, don't start thinking for yourself. You've been told who the "enemy" is. You're following orders like a good little soldier.

Rather than creating hypothetical scenarios for polls, which themselves have loaded questions, "media analyst" Dice should concentrate on educating people on how to think; something the nation could definitely use.
That's absurd. The first step is to admit you have a problem. Mark Dice is showing the nation we have a problem. He's serving a very useful purpose. BTW, when you put media analyst in quotes, it's a giveaway that you have contempt for the man. It really diminishes the point you're trying to make.

Wow, angry much? Wipe the froth away from your mouth and settle down.

Please provide a link to where I said that GOP lawmakers had or were definitely going to put forth this legislation.

I don't know Mr. Dice well enough to have contempt for him. What I have is contempt for is his methods and supposed purpose.

When you find a GOP legislator who aligns with it, get back with me
 
Yeah this is more Opportunist than GOP from reading that.

So what? The vast majority of people outside the right wing echo chamber realize that the Venn diagram of the "oppportunity" of this proposal makes a single circle with the party it's targeting (GOP). There's probably 0.00001% interest from any non-GOP/Tea Party whackjob on this, and as a Libertarian I'm horrified it even got uttered. I try to be equal opportunity in calling out the nutters on either side of the aisle, and this one definitely qualifies.
 
The same can be said of you falsely accusing them. Too many people ASSume they are about social issues when they're actually about fiscal issues and I just correct them.

So for the record can you please tell us where to go to get the "official" Tea Party platform that supports your statement?
 
They're not Tea Party.

How would you know? Is there a list? Even better, is there an official Tea Party platform that everyone who says they're in the Tea Party must support? Because it seems like whenever one of these loonies says something BS crazy, people pop up and say "well, he's not REAL tea party". Great plausible deniability.

Because the Tea Party was formed and is about FISCAL issues.

Everybody and nobody is Tea Party!

This is a real politician party! When you're doing something that benefits them, you're in; when you're doing something a little too crazy, you're out.
 
Because the Tea Party was formed and is about FISCAL issues.

So provide the single source where we can all view the "official" Tea Party platform that is considered the "Real" Tea Party so we can put all those other posers out to pasture.

Surely this request isn't all that difficult for you.......

You don't know what the Tea Party is about. There is no one person who represents them.
