Dale Carpenter is one of the best conservative gay writers and spokesmen. He was involved with the Texas Log Cabin Republicans and knows full well how evil the Texas Republican Party is (they once told his grandmother that he was a Sodomite and they were both going to burn in hell). He was one of only 2 pro-gay activists (5 against) to be allowed to speak at the DOMA hearings last fall. He's written a new article about the impending Hate Amendment fight, called Time to Draw the Line. This really does lay out what is ahead of us very clearly and concisely. Please pass this on to anyone you know who is ambivalent about this amendment, thinks it won't pass, etc.
