Ruth Jacobs: Who really would win if District 18 candidate is elected?

http://www.gazette.net/stories/08132010/policol171633_32538.php (http://www.gazette.net/stories/08132010/policol171633_32538.php)

The Gazette story ("Gay candidates seek record voice in legislature," June 18) documents the assistance provided to political candidates solely on the basis of their sexual orientation or gender identity by the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund.

The website for "The Fund" states, "The Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund works to elect LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) leaders to public office for one simple reason. They change America's politics."

But even without being elected, Dana Beyer, who is a male-to-female transgender seeking office in District 18, already has changed Montgomery County politics. As an aide to Councilwoman Duchy Trachtenberg and the vice president of Equality Maryland, a special-interest homosexual activist group, Beyer promoted the controversial "gender identity" law in Montgomery County over citizen protests and despite her obvious conflict of interest.
