I know that many of you have a lot of experience with the topic of "coming out." I also know that you wanted, expected, and even demanded that the world understand your make-up as a person and the origins of your genetic destiny. Anyone who does not understand you is a bigot! All persons must simultaneously, blithely accept all of your choices in your life, and by that I mean ALL of your choices-otherwise they are a bigot.
With this is mind, I have news for everyone on this Board. This has been very difficult, but it has been with me for as long as I can remember. Like most of you, I am so apprehensive about making this statement and speaking my truth to the world. I have chosen this Board specifically for this momentous statement.
I know that I can count on each and everyone on this Board to understand and to demonstrate great compassion. I thank you for your obvious tolerance of all types and all views.
Yes. After years of being in the closet (I know you understand the significance of this statement), I am coming out as a moderate conservative. I know it goes against all of the norms of this Board, but I know you are very tolerant people who are well versed in the teachings of diversity.
Thank you.
