VA congressional Republicans walk out rather than vote for gay judge

[fskimospy]

I hardly think that if each of their voting constituents were queried prior to them walking out as a tactive for whatever their constituents might support, if walking out and running to another state was what they expected their political leadership to do, that the results of that polling would be high %'s saying 'Oh yes, run away whenever you feel it's politically best'.

That's kindergarden and gradeschool schoolyard type shit, and even there, most people don't want their kids pussing out. You're telling me you support politicians doing this? You view that tactic as a positive?

I doubt their constituents really care about their tactics. Like, at all.

While I don't know what districts they are from, presumably they are supporting the views of their district. That's generally what you're supposed to do as a legislator. (there are of course cases of greater state or national interest that I could see taking precedence) I really don't care if they walk out, personally.

The Repubs need to embrace the Gay!

Uhhhh....

Thorne-Begland was ultimately elected to the Richmond Manchester District Court by a vote of 66-28 in the Republican-controlled House

Seems like Virginia Republicans are coming along just fine...

Uhhhh....

If they want to have a larger tent they will have to. I wonder what hard RightWingers do when they find out a Family member is gay?

These threads you're starting, OP, always seem to have some overplayed and overemphasied anti-gay overtone to them and are getting dangerously close to trollish and bigoted behavior... just my opinion, though, and your use of buzzwords like "gay Judge", "anti-gay" are clear indicators and are attention-whorish phrases.

I didn't read the Anti-gay youtube thread that you started based on that thread title and, as far as I remember, got zero replies anyway.

Just sayin'...

Oh quit stalking him and just ask him out already.
