Gays funded Howard Dean’s Early Campaign |
|
http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2004/1/4/221145.shtmlNewsmax has its panties in a wad (pun intended) over the LGBT community contributing to Dean's campaign. I wonder if they're intending on labelling him the "gay-lover" candidate?

That would be a label I'd proudly get behind.
Dean, the Gay Loving candidate.

No one sent me that memo. Normally we get memos on what products to buy, where to shop, what schools to "convert" kids at and so on. I must have missed this one.

4. Geez, what will NewsHax think of next? |
|
"Blacks funded Sharpton & Braun campaigns?" "Jews give a Kosher kickstart to Lieberman campaign" "Vegetarian Pacifists Bankrolled Kucinich" "Sons of Millworkers Associtaion backs Edwards" ???
Just like a rightwing shitrag to appeal to base hatreds within their own ranks :eyes:

6. This is not only a Newsmax story |
|
was also in The Washington Post - might have been page 1, if not it definitely led a section of the paper. Written by a Post reporter, I believe, so it was probably a different story, but same content.
Don't recall the date, but it was very recent (w/in a week).

12. All of the candidates |
|
seem to support "gay issues," but Dean was the signer of the civil union law in Vermont. That's something that works for him for the gay community (the members of the gay community that actually care about all of this--some don't).
