Republican Hypocrisy - Somebody Make it Go Away

It should come as no surprise that I am confused about the current slate of Republican candidates seeking the nomination of their party for the Presidency of the United States. For the past six years my community has been diminished and demonized by the Republican Party and now their leading candidates are; a serial monogamous, Rudy Giuliani, A Mormon, Mitt Romney, who’s Religion has not yet stricken the words of Joseph Smith regarding Polygamy from their “Book”, Newt Gingrich, an unannounced candidate, who debated the terms of his divorce while his wife was recovering from an operation (at the same time leading the charge to impeach Clinton and cheating on his wife with a chorus singer who sang at the national Catholic Cathedral), and Fred Thompson, a divorced man, how’s that Marriage Oath go, “until death do us part?” All of these so called moral mistakes or weaknesses would mean nothing to me if not for the fact that for the past six years the Republican Party has been finding a way to peek into my bedroom and dehumanize me and 10% of America. Republican hypocrisy is highlighted in the photo of Dick Cheney and his wife holding there grandchild without the parents. That the parents allowed that photo to be shot and published is even more absurd and demeans all children who are lucky enough to have two loving parents, whether same sex or otherwise.
When choosing a President, it is important to me that the person finds a way to unite our divided country. His/her personal choices in the affairs of love really have nothing to do with their ability to manage our economy, this absurd war, the health-care in our Nation, care of our veterans, immigration, and fear. Hopefully during this election cycle the one issue voters will expand their minds and do what is best for all Americans.
