Here is a comment I made on Frank Rich's Op Ed piece in the NYT.

I have always wondered how conservatives could be against such obviously good things like cleaning up air pollution; don't they and their families breath the same air as the rest of us? But is starts to make sense when you see the strong sense of self loathing that must exist in people like George Rekers. If they can't accept themselves as they actually are, in his case as a homosexual, so why should they be able to accept any other realities that conflict with their ideological views of the world.

Here is a link to the piece.
