Hi. Lifelong conservative, here. Let me try to correct a few of the misconceptions I've seen in this thread.
1) Democrat/Republican and Liberal/Conservative are not the same thing. There is a general correlation, but it's not a 1:1 relationship. I am conservative. I often (but not always) vote Republican.
2) Despite the bad press, the TEA Party (stands for Taxed Enough, Already) stands for limited government involvement in our lives, a reduced size and power of the federal government, and obviously a related reduction in the individual tax burden. The name harkens back to the original Boston Tea Party, which had as its slogan "no taxation without representation." A remarkably similar premise. Their goals are clearly and specifically enumerated, the participants are almost universally polite and well mannered, and the rallies are a positive reflection on their cause.
Those goals are consistent with our founding documents, and the way our government is "supposed" to work. The Tea Party has evolved quicky into a Hate Group/Militant Arm of the Republican Party. In record time. It has nothing to do with "getting back to the good essence of America...." And yes, I support those goals.
3) Gay rights are, essentially, just rights. Just rights? Why does this sound so awfully familiar to that guy who just got banned? It's wrong to discriminate against people...gay people included! Those who oppose "gay rights," usually oppose them on philosophical grounds, but are subjected to accusations of bigotry. It's not bigotry...it's logic! Those who oppose gay rights are victims of bigotry? That's asininity taken to the nth degree. You've lost all credibility at this point. It's analogous to black rights, women's rights, etc...they're the same rights, but restated and reaffirmed for each minority group. Kinda' ridiculous when you view it through that prism.
Some of us are smart enough to realize this fact, and are resisting the current trend to break up the "American melting pot" into increasingly disparate groups of sub-categories. A dog whistle shout out to all your bigoted brethren. Nice.
It's easier to explain using a different example, though. Truism: Murder is wrong. Is a white man murdering a black man *more* wrong? No? Then why does "hate crime" legislation try to say that it is? False equivalence. Why am I not surprised?
4) There are those of us who are not gay, who fully support full equality for gays (and all sexual minorities)...but that doesn't mean taking a specially enumerated "reverse discrimination" approach. More false equivalence. And that's where a lot of the gay rights discussions invariably end up.
5) What does the size of my endowment have to do with my political views? Republicans (or conservatives) are not sexually repressed prudes...and even if we were, where else would one come for advice on underwear for big guys?
Heck, I found this site with a google search about "my balls fall out of my underwear," or something similar.
Given all that's gone before, this is so unlikely as to be demonstrably "no fucking way".
Most of us just don't have the desire to flaunt it in your face, like a circus side show.
