GAY TRUTH

Gay money, immoral republicans, bribes and  manipulation pushed the NY Gay Vote through: here The Log Cabin Republicans , a pro- gay rights conservative group, immediately launched a fundraising drive to protect those four members who backed its cause. Clarke Cooper, the group's executive director , said it wasn't meant to be a " quid pro quo ."  The organization's state officials were a bit blunter. "Right now, agenda item number one is making sure that those four courageous Republicans who voted yes are protected" GOOD LUCK!

A three-judge panel of the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals on Wednesday said that the concerns which prompted them to issue a stay of a federal judge’s order on DADT back in November no longer remain.
