oh, those whacky gay republican super pacs

Pro Same-Sex-Marriage PAC Backs Candidate Who Equates Gay Marriage With Bigamy, Polygamy
Evan McMorris-Santoro-October 26, 2012, 11:36 AM


American Unity PAC, a Republican super PAC aimed at expanding support for same-sex marriage, was announced with great fanfare in June. But it may not be living up to the hype: one of the congressional candidates it’s supporting with hundreds of thousands in TV ads is not only publicly opposed to same-sex marriage, she also just equated the practice with polygamy and bigamy.

The Billy Graham bashing threads are misguided

his son has been pulling an Edith Wilson act (look it up) for years. The man had a great (and earlier not so great) record on inclusion and pluralism. His son is a total dick and also behind all of this closed minded crap. Again, google Edith Wilson.

Texas voter ID law set aside, yet "ID required" signs all around our early voting place

I called the Justice Department's number (which was posted) I told them the situation, they said they would have to call me back.

They never did.

That was Monday.

UPDATE: Local attornies called the courthouse and raised hell. The part of the vote here sings that said id required are now coered with tape.
