Too Bad, Andrew

As election day moves closer, Andrew Sullivan is reading more and more like a member of the legacy liberal media. Preoccupied with the (at best) tertiary issue of gay marriage and apparently willing to use his hard won platform to spin against the only candidate whose opinion on the matter can easily be discerned, Sullivan's latest gambit is to attack the president's conservative credentials. This while the Kerry works overtime to trivialize the danger of terrorism.

"We have to get back to the place we were, where terrorists are not the focus of our lives, but they're a nuisance.."

Fortunately for Bush, most of Sullivan's conservative readers recognize that with the party of Harry Truman now captive to the far-left, anyone for whom national security is of paramount concern has little choice but to vote republican. Give Sullivan credit for his many principled stances, but recognize the social extremism that now fogs his judgement.

For more than a decade, many of us fought long and hard to bring gays into the Republican fold, to defend the GOP, to advance conservative ideas in the gay community. Bush reversed all of it. Bush has done to gays nationally what Pete Wilson did for immigrants in California.
