Human Rights Campaign issues scathing report on John McCain

[canis_lupus]

The Political Action Committee of the Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest LGBT civil rights organization, has released a report on GOP presumptive presidential nominee, John McCain.

The six page report, Senator John McCain: A record of opposing the interests of LGBT Americans, includes sections on McCain's record on LGBT civil rights, the treatment of same-sex couples, workplace discrimination, and other policy areas of interest to the LGBT community.

Shown the copy of the report obtained in advance by PageOneQ, Cliff Schecter, author of The Real McCain (site - purchase) and writer and editor of Cliff Schecter's Campaign Silo at Firedoglake, said "This report by the Human Rights Campaign makes it is clear that John McCain would bring the same right-wing bias and politically expedient flip flops to GLBT policy as he does to the rest of the policy arena.

"It is not surprising, considering John McCain has changed his policy on both gay marriage and domestic partnerships during the course of a single political talk show in the past," he added.
