OMG. This op-ed by Patrick Sammon at the Washington Blade is beyond belief. We all know that the Log Cabin Republicans endorsed John McCain after a political season of the candidate crapping on them at every turn as he courted the Dobson vote. But this continued defense of McCain as some sort of plus for LGBTs is intellectually dishonest.

The lengthy piece doesn't mention LGBT rights save the lone positive the LCRs repeatedly point to -- McCain's vote against the FMA.
