Americans perceive that more Americans are teh ghey than are actually Gay. Why is that, you ask?

Gallup does the poll (see here) and has this analysis...

Americans perceive that there is a large U.S. gay population -- one far larger than is likely reality. Perhaps more informative than the exact figure Americans give is the trend that more Americans now than in 2002 feel they have enough information to offer an estimate. This suggests Americans have had even more exposure to gays and lesbians, be it in their personal lives or through entertainment or other means. It is also noteworthy that demographics appear in most cases to be more predictive of views in this matter than are political or ideological leanings.

More exposure? MORE EXPOSURE?? How about having it shoved down our collective throats by Hollyweird Media and the 'politically correct' lawmakers (Democrats, mostly) who legislate 'rights' for these sap-suckers? Even the U.S. Military has jumped on the "GAY? OK!" bandwagon. Stars like the Lady GarGoyle forcibly push the gay agenda onto their fan base.

So, we see people perceiving that over 25% of Americans are gay, a ludicrous figure. Maybe the definition of 'gay' included people who act gay but aren't (most Democrats &c.), that's certainly possible.

A subset of the numbers by ideology: Democrats estimate 28% of Americans are gay; Independents, 25%, Republicans 20.2%. There you see the overwhelming acceptance, and encouragement to be gay given by Democrats, expressed in numbers.

Sigh. What a freakin' mess this nation is in.

Who will be the 2012 Republican nominee for President?

The New York Times releases 'their' wish-list, a poll conducted with CBS' resources to gauge intent amongst Republicans. As I figured, there's no real consensus.

Republican voters have yet to form strong opinions about most of their potential candidates for president in 2012, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll.

Of this group, I like Sarah Palin, but I realize that her candidacy might be untenable. That doesn't mean I'll vote FOR a candidate preferred by the NYT (like John McCain was) or any candidate who doesn't meet the NRA's strict requirements (Mitt Romney).

Donald Trump isn't even smart enough to carry Ross Perot's stage charts.

John Huntsman, the 'dark horse' there at the bottom? Well, he has the future leader of China's endorsement. Since China owns a large piece of the U.S. debt, that endorsement may prove important.

(Reuters) - Chinese Vice President Xi Jinping on Thursday lauded the departing U.S. ambassador, Jon Huntsman, who may enter the Republican presidential race, setting aside tension over human rights to hail an "old friend of the Chinese people."

Xi and Huntsman are both potential top leaders with an eye on 2012 and beyond, and Xi's unprompted praise stood out after weeks of testy exchanges with the United States over China's tightened grip on dissent.

Huntsman this month ends his time as the Obama administration's chief envoy in Beijing, during which he has taken on a high profile in challenging the ruling Communist Party's clampdown on dissidents and protesters.

But Huntsman, a former Republican governor of Utah who speaks fluent Chinese, has also promoted steadier ties after quarrels in 2010 over China's Internet controls, Tibet and the exiled Dalai Lama, and U.S. arms sales to Taiwan, the self-ruled island claimed by China.

I'd certainly prefer the Chinese endorsement of our Republican nominee over the LeftLibProggs at the NYT.

And Barack Hussein Obama isn't done shaping this nation into the CHANGEd social paradise he's wanting. He is keeping his personal thoughts close to his vest, but this...

"It is going to take more than a couple of years," Obama said. "It's going to take us more than one term to finish everything that we need to do."

...rings ominous.

This guy is taking us on a ride even the Democrats can't (and won't) comprehend. They are all now but useful idiots, along for the ride of their lives, ending in a trainwreck that might see this nation fail, as did the Soviet Union 20 years ago. All it took was a stagnating economy (check) and, in our case, rising fuel prices (check) and a malaise of opinion, a feeling that CHANGE is imminent (check).

We are not too big to fail.
