[Vision2020] A Dedication to . . .

[Jay Borden]

Ok... you've provided a link to a Tea Party newsletter... which begins
with a pre-amble of core Tea Party beliefs (which center around "stop
spending, stop tramping the Constitution")....

... and continues on to list off the current Republican candidates with
a short cheat-sheet on their stances on major issues:  Healthcare and
Entitlements, Education, Spending and Taxes, Immigration, Energy, and
National Security.

There's one line item in there for "Rick Perry" for a category called
"social", which lists he supports traditional marriage, and signed the
Defense of Marriage Act... 


That's not even close to a smoking gun.  If there's an "anti-gay" agenda
in there, I must have missed it.
