Patrick Sammon has an article up in the Washington Blade about why John McCain is good for LGBT people. I kid you not - even though he lied to The Advocate and said that LCR is focused first on LGBT rights in the Republican Party, he turns around and writes a column telling LGBT to vote for John McCain.
His reasons are hilarious, absolutely hilarious. But then he knows that he's coming from an intellectually dishonest position in order to get new donors from the 23% of the LGBT community that voted for Bush in 2004 when LCR didn't endorse him and that he has to push for a sub-par candidate.

Well, Mak Buse will be a gay Republican who votes for McSame. O, that's right, no one is supposed to know that Mark Buse is a gay male.
Sorry, my bad. *sigh*

Slaves should have voted for Jeff Davis, and had they been allowed to vote, I'm sure they would have.

Crazy gays should vote for McCain.
The bit about challenging Islamic homophobia really confuses me. I thought that the President was supposed to administer our country. Haven't we done enough policing of the world?

If they add "Bom Iran" to the list of hits then I would imagine that time and fate and the Islamic hordes will pretty much make it mandatory that we are "done policing the world." Regardless of what that "they" in Washington want.

OH there you go, confusing a perfectly good discussion with facts. Yeesh. Three fifths, or five/eights, like what, someone got a measuring too out?
