call my 98 year old mother a silent homophobe for her previous stance on gay rights, which she has changed and for someone who is in her 90's I consider that quite a positive change. I've lost my brother to AIDS, my granddaughter is gay, and I believe that Hillary's explanation is enough for me. If not, I would be the biggest hypocrite in the world by never accepting my own mother's change of heart. This is going to take our party down unless we stop this destructive descent into annihilation by a thousand cuts. The enemy is becoming us.
