Ex-republicans welcome here..

Finally, a high profile Republican makes a moves to the center. David A. Catania, a Gay Bush Pioneer and a national delegate, has left the GOP because he opposes the President's proposed constitutional amendment to ban Gay Marriage. Catania publicly stated that he would not support Bush in the upcoming election and was summarily stripped of his status as a national delegate.

It really stumps me why any gay person would want be a member of the GOP in the first place. Why join a party that despises you? Of course, I am niether gay nor Republican, so I don't hold out much hope for enlightenment. I understand financial conservatism, small government, strong defense, and lack of entitlements, that's why I am a democrat. Perhaps we will see a welcome influx of moderate ex-Republicans who can't stomach the extreme social agenda the GOP leadership is cramming down the throat of the nation. One can dream...
