That’s funny, she doesn’t look like a Republican!

It is assumed that all gays are Democratic voters except for a very, very few who are super rich. I am neither, but I am a gay Republican business woman who recognizes that finally a greater number of gays and lesbians know that the GLBT political class and the Obama Democrats will say anything to scare us into the voters’ booth determined that we will pull the Democrat lever.

“No funding for AIDS !!!”  “No marriage equality!!!”  “Rampant homophobia...” goes the mantra.  But most of it is a big lie, and just because I am a lesbian does not mean I have to live a life of relentless left-wing lies. 

AIDS funding does not disappear with GOP majorities, and at least half of Republicans believe in civil unions.  In fact, the lead attorney in overturning California’s Proposition 8 to ban same-sex marriage is also an out-spoken movement conservative.

The Obama economy is in shambles.  Gay businesses suffer from a noticeable lack of customer flow.  Gay newspaper circulation is dramatically down in the Obama Era.

We need a dramatic reduction in the federal government.  The Post Office is technologically obsolete.  The Commerce Department and Small Business Administration create neither jobs nor business; they are merely edifices of pretentiousness. 

The Health and Human Services Department is already duplicated at the state and local level. The Department of Education in Washington, D.C. has no student contact while its only real interest is in keeping inferior performing teachers employed in order to get their union dues, which are aimed at running class warfare ads during campaign time.

I want a country that is driven by ethical, democratic capitalism and puts people back to work.  

Our federal and state governments are out of control and run by greedy public-sector employee unions.  Our government has tens of billions of dollars of unfunded pension obligations for which we, the taxpayers, are liable. 

The career politicians have bankrupt Social Security and Medicare to the point where the government is the equivalent to 200 Enrons.

When all the votes are counted, we are going to find out that a lot of gays and lesbians became politically mature, wised up and voted Republican.
