New Cartoon! The Uniter Speaks

Anyone who still thinks Bush is a moderate or has no position on gay issues needs to wake up. Seriously. Scalia is his favorite justice. Ralph Reed is involved in his reelection campaign. Throwing a few tidbits out about "inclusion" and "welcoming" doesn't change a thing. And grasping at the fact that Dick Cheney doesn't hate his lesbian daughter doesn't change the fact that the Bush Administration as a whole is antigay. I doubt this will make gay Republicans vote Democratic in 2004, though--they wouldn't want to risk their tax cuts.

P.S. There's a good piece in this week's Village Voice about the current anti-gay backlash, and why anyone who thinks gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered people are safe and accepted in the U.S. because lots of people watch Queer Eye for the Straight Guy has their head in the sand.
