Some of my fellow conservatives took offense when, a few days ago, I commented that, "if asked to choose between the security of the American Republic and buggery, Andrew Sullivan would choose the latter." (Or, something to that effect). Of course, by his response to the President's declaration of his support for the FMA, Mr. Sullivan has proven that I was exactly right:

This struggle is hard but it is also easy. The president has made it easy. He's a simple man and he divides the world into friends and foes. He has now made a whole group of Americans - and their families and their friends - his enemy. We have no alternative but to defend ourselves and our families from this attack. And we will.

Andrew Sullivan professes to be convinced that President Bush is the only candidate who can defend America against her enemies. Yet he's prepared to turn on him in an instant to defend homosexuality. Andrew Sullivan is easily one of the most conservative and ostensibly patriotic American homosexuals yet, given the choice between buggery and the security of the American Republic, which does he choose?

Roger Simon also uses the issue as a chance to align himself with the forces of treason. What we have here are a bunch of people who think that the so-called "rights" of sexual fetishists to change an age-old institution trump, you know, the relevant task of preventing millions of Americans from being killed.

Anyone who, in this time of crisis, breaks with the President will, if he is defeated, have blood on their hands. American blood.
