McCain Accepts Money From Gay Cruising Site

While observers of the scene are two-minded about the Gay cruising site, Manhunt.com, they are outraged that one of the site’s owners recently maxed out in a donation to the McCain campaign [1].
The donor defends himself by saying Obama shares McCain’s opposition to Gay marriage, but McCain will do a better job defending the country–giving Americans a chance to live and debate Gay marriage later.
The outrage in Gay circles is interesting and revealing. Why should a particular sexual orientation demand a particular political orientation? Sweater-knitters and ice-skaters are not organized along political lines–and neither are all straight people expected to vote for one particular party. Why do Gay rights advocates demand lock-step political obedience?
Indeed they seem as vicious against Gay dissenters as they are toward evangelical Christians.
Still it makes one wonder: What trouble do they have with a free society where everyone is entitled to go their own way? Why are they tribal, not pro-individual?
