‘You can’t trust him,’ gay vet says after exchange with Romney in N.H.

“I was undecided,” Garon said. But “I’m totally convinced today that he’s not going to be my president — at least in my book. At least Obama will entertain the idea. This man is ‘no way, Jose.’ Well, take that ‘no way, Jose’ back to Massachusetts.”

Asked why he felt so strongly about Romney’s response, Garon said: “Because I’m gay, alright? And I happen to love a man just like you probably love your wife. Alright? And I think that he or she or whatever are entitled to the same rights that I have. I fought for my country, I did my thing, and I think that my spouse should be entitled to the same entitlements as if I was married to a woman. What the hell is the difference? I was definitely offended. He doesn’t even open the door to a conversation. It’s just a boom! But I did ask him ‘yes or no,’ so I got what I asked for.”

Garon said Rep. Ron Paul (Tex.) was “the only one who tickles my fancy,” but that he’s “a little on the ‘hmmm…’ side. Come on, we all know what I mean… His age is a little on the rickety side because people think he’s a little crazy, but he’s not.”
