I can understand why some people were upset. Yeah, it reflects the preferential treatment some folks get in certain segments of society, but I think that's a somewhat insensitive way to get a point across. In this PC age, I'm afraid it's just too "over the line."

Don't misunderstand me: I myself am a registered Republican. And I'd be the first one to say, "Hey, it's free speech!" And I'm certainly well aware that the "other side" has gone to much lower depths than that in their protests of this-or-that. However, I'm of the mind that if we say we're really compassionate conservatives, then we should be above such tactics. I applaud you for taking a stand, but I'm not sure I agree with how you did it.

On the other hand, Republicans are "damned if they do and damned if they don't" no matter WHAT the issue...
