To Republicans: Really? This is Your Guy?

Ken Blackwell, the leading contender for the GOP chairman, is coming under justifiable fire for stating that homosexuality is a "compulsion" that can be "resisted."

Really? You guys take this guy seriously? And do you have any idea how arrogant this is:

"I've never had to make the choice because I've never had the urge to be other than a heterosexual," Blackwell added, "but if in fact I had the urge to be something else I could have in fact suppressed that urge."


Really? You're going to make this Neanderthal your leader? Do you have any idea how dismissive and condescending his attitude is of our lives and our relationships?

And could someone please ask him if he could resist the "urge" to be in a meaningful relationship with someone he desired to spend his life with?

Should anyone really expect to take the Republican Party seriously anymore?
