Why is it that you scratch a real wing-nut, and more often than not, they turn out to be nasty bigots, and especially prone to having strange fixations about sexual identity. Seriously, rajhc, I haven't heard such homophobic language since I was in high school and surrounded by a bunch of dumb jocks on the football team. Do you honestly think I care if someone like you calls me or anyone else a "faggot?" What it does, much more than anything else, is make you look like a fool. I'm sorry, but it's just the way it is.

Maybe in the future, if you're so concerned about civility, you could try not to use that puerile conservative corruption of the Democratic Party, which is intended and used to mock other peoples' political associations. Show some respect in the first place, and maybe you'll get some in return.
