this is one of those times where i totally forgot about a thread i started.

in any case, i enjoy the intellectual debate and discussion that the whole ManHunt.net/Republican Party situation has spawned.

maybe it was just a "publicity stunt" on their part, but i hate to just dismiss it as that. i would rather take this opportunity to discuss issues such as "why not be Republican AND gay?" the Log Cabin Republicans show us that it is NOT an oxymoron. i have many gay friends in North Carolina who are hard core Republican. i'm glad to live in a country where we have a choice, whether you agree with someone's political views or not, they have a choice.

how about someone's choice to do whatever they wish with their money? are vegetarians going to start boycotting Manhunt if they find out the owners had a steak dinner? or better yet, how about VEAL? are the environmentalists going to cancel their accounts if they find out someone is commuting in an SUV every single day with just ONE person? are atheists going to start boycotting a site if they find out the owner donates to his/her church?

now for those friends of mine who no longer have Manhunt accounts...i wonder where/how they are going to hookup. maybe they can find a website with a non-meat eating, non-SUV driving, non-Republican voting, non-church donating owner?
