I wouldn't say that Rex Wockner is a liberal.  He's not a right-winger, but

he certainly doesn't come across as part of the liberal media conspiracy 
(and if there's a media conspiracy, it's right-wing). 

>It really bothers me that my brothers and sisters

I am not your brother (or sister).

We don't.  There are lots of gay and lesbian Republicans, Libertarians, 
Greens, and so forth (haven't heard of any gay Perotistas, though). 

I vote the Democratic party line, not because the Democrats are the best 
of all possible political parties but because they are better than any 
viable alternative.

It's not uncritical - it's pragmatic.
