My Thoughts on Gay Marriage

As a gay Conservative I feel it's important to give gay men and women access to the issues that affect us most from the right side of the political spectrum. I guess you could classify me as a Conservative Libertarian. I do not support or adhere to the current Leftist ideology that has taken over the Democratic Party. I believe in the concept of rational self-interest in the tradition of Ayn Rand in her novel "Atlas Shrugged". Many gay men and women adhere themselves blindly to the Democratic Party. They believe that it is only the philosophy of the current make-up of the Democratic Party that will allow them their basic civil-rights. I argue that what they are actually doing is selling away all of their other Constitutional freedoms for the sake of a marriage license and to do precisely that is "non-rational". From a psychological standpoint I also feel that the gay community suffers tremendously from self-hatred that projects itself in the form of victimization onto the rest of our Amercian brothers and sisters--and in the end is more self-destructive to our cause as a whole than productive.
