OMG, I was just reading in the NYT quotes from the Couric interview w/ Palin and now it's personal.
And on gays, Governor Palin said: “But what you’re talking about, I think, value here, what my position is on homosexuality and you can pray it away, because I think that was the title that was listed on that bulletin. And you know, I don’t know what prayers are worthy of being prayed. I don’t know what prayers are going to be asked and answered. But as for homosexuality, I am not going to judge Americans and the decisions that they make in their adult personal relationships. I have one of my absolute best friends for the last 30 years happens to be gay, and I love her dearly. And she is not my “gay friend,” she is one of my best friends, who happens to have made a choice that isn’t a choice I would have made. But I am not going to judge people.”
Excuse me, Mrs. Palin but I didn't choose to be gay (not that if someone were to "choose" being gay there would be anything wrong with that...we are fabulous). I was born gay just like you were apparently born with limited capacity for knowledge.
