that literally one of the first few Republicans to BLAST President Obama over his decision to publicly endorse marriage equality were Log Cabin ones. One might expect a true LGBT organization to offer some measure of praise for the endorsement and blast the party that is- aside from a few notable exceptions- not only standing in the way of advancing LGBT equality but trying to turn back the clock and stuff LGBTs back into the closet. Whatever the Log Cabin Republicans are up to, it has to be a sham. There is simply no other explanation for their group's, frankly bizarre behavior when it comes to President Obama and his advocacy for expanding THEIR rights.
