But simply chroniclg their support of Bh's send printial term, which the Texas Governor subsequently betrayed, we follow a handful of homosexual Republins and their reactns to their Party's exploatn of their sexualy for the sake of evangelil voters who amass far more vot than them. I suppose I am disappoted that I still don't feel I unrstand why a gay man who grew up reprsed by the Mormonism of his background would mata a signifint penchant for the Republin Party, all throughout the Reagan years and Bh 41, the face of how the ary reced him only to discharge him for his sexualy orr to make an example of him, or how Reagan showed remarkable disda for the AIDS epimic and perpetuated the myth that was a seclively gay disease. Asi om the stanc which he furiat the viewer as much as nearly every fellow homosexual, there is a moment which I lghed out loud at his plete ignorance: He prents to the mera his llectn of Bh dolls, which to him are a symbol of his idolizatn of the man, unaware of the fact they are products signed to mock the print's poor English and goofy facial exprsns.
GAY REPUBLICANS
There is not one moment which he fails to be an unabashed snob, sayg that Gay Pri Paras are so beneath him, that other LCRs who are upset by Bh's proposal to ban gay marriage should get over themselv, that you're a Republin if you're smart. My feelg was that perhaps his mother's Morate posn is bee of him that she may agree wh some Republin views but do not want to support anti-gay legislatn. Gay Republins giv the pa of beg a fish out of water, rerced hatred and arguable ce of the Bh admistratn, and ankly the strange dualy of gullibily and stubbornns the folks.
If this 62-mute doc n make me as angry as did, I nnot image beg a gay person watchg the misrmed, perplexg and disaffectg people. Many gay Liberals, which I would image to be a natural rndancy, are terviewed and claim that a gay Republin is like a Jewish Nazi or a black Klansman. Well, whether a gay Republin se that way or not aren't they?
