From a reader:
Jonah,
Didn’t you and Dreher hash this out a year or so ago? Not necessarily
the gay thing, but the identity politics issue. I have no problem
listening to the Grateful Dead, shopping grocery co-ops, and pounding
nails for Habitat for Humanity—while strongly supporting W (and wishing
he were more conservative). It’s my liberal friends who roll their eyes
and insist that my actions are somehow disingenuous. So what if your
correspondent is gay? So what if he disagrees over certain Republican
platform issues? It’s not about him.
