Log Cabins simply hate being labeled as traitors to the LGBT community, and perhaps their complaints would be more credible if it weren't for statements like this:
Gay Democrats have confused Democrat party rhetoric with LGBT accomplishment.
As far as LCR Greater Cleveland is concerned, the political field is even.
American energy exploration and development, pro-growth prosperity, choice and competition in education, secure US borders, peace and security for the people in Iraq and Afghanistan, and national security will be the centerpieces of this presidential election. Log Cabin Republicans believe in these American ideals. Gay Democrats do not.
John McCain and Sarah Palin are the best team for the White House in 2009.
I think this statement mocks itself.
Republicans like to fashion themselves as perpetual victims, and LCR's aren't much different. But let's just remember this statement the next time they talk about how hurt they are when the larger LGBT community calls them traitors to the cause: they're just as willing to pull the traitor card, and much more cynical about it.
But this is particularly fun:
Log Cabin Republicans of Greater Cleveland welcomes everyone, including LGBT Hillary voters and hockey moms, into our chapter.
Because Palin is exactly the person liberal LGBT voters have been looking for.
