“Patrick, great article. I agree with you wholeheartedly. Last thing we need is an inexperienced uppity at the helm. As a gay man, I’ve proudly voted GOP my whole life based on their core principles and values, and my partner and I look forward to seeing McCain in the White House 1/20/09.”

An "uppity"? OH MY GOD.
What century is this? Truly.
