In my weaker moments I can understand the intolerance and bigotry endemic to Governor Bob McDonnell, the fine people of Virginia and Republicans everywhere, it is their pride in it that passes me by.
Of all the issues at play in this nation, this is the one that has no basis other than bigotry for the sake of bigotry, hate for the fun of hating and intolerance just for the visceral joy of it. It is the nature of the Beast.
