When there are only two real viable candidates I find it quite insulting to suggest that when you support republicans this automatically equals homophobia.

Shocking generalisation in fact. Some of the stuff posted here is akin to bullying as well. Ie. vote for Obama or you are a homophobe you filthy pig. ? WTF?

Meat is not a homophobe or against women's rights in my opinion.

You only have to look at a few hard core liberals such as Michael Moore and Bruce Springsteen (listen to his Wrecking Ball album) to find out many don't agree with a large part of Obama's Wall Street / banking support policies yet they both still come out and endorse Obama to the brim.

What I find sad is that both parties in the States couldn't work together to sort out the national debt problem, instead they just raised the debt ceiling and left the problem for another day. Quite a childish resolution. Both parties should have done something about this. So in this case, who do you vote for? Ie. it makes no difference with regards to many policies.
