Jay's answer was ment to be as ridiculous as your question and Donovan's statement. By the way I am left handed. libertarian on some issues, conservative on some. Solidly for fiscal responsibly and smaller government.

You’re basically saying you cannot be both Republican AND fiscally conservative or a proponent of the constitution. You’re basically saying that if you’re a member of the Tea Party, then you have an anti-gay agenda.

To me, and most others that can read between the lines, that makes them anti-gay. And there is no such thing as a part of the Republican Party that is "the fiscal /constitutional right." Those people for sound fiscal policy and the constitutional rights of people are called Libertarians, Democrats and Independents.

If you want to find an element of bigotry and hatred towards gays on the Republican side of the political coin, youll find it in the religious right… not the fiscal /constitutional right.
