7. Fuck the HRC
I've never viewed them as anything more than a late 20th c. Mattachine Society.

Listen, I don't think it is such a bad strategy to-- say-- target the south with a blitz television ad campaign featuring struggling, humanized glbt folks: i.e. my transgendered daughter was murdered, I was barred from my partner's hospital room as she lay dying, etc.

However, 'toning it down' is DUMB DUMB DUMB. So now we're going to slap our own knuckles with rulers for being naughty uppity queers who *gasp* want something?

And what is this shyte about bargaining over Social Security? ARE THEY INSANE? The HRC has no business making statements on national economics. And the HRC is in no business to cut deals. Do they really think that Bush will work with them if they cowtow?

Are they not listening to theocracywatch.org and the yurica report?

I don't give them $ and I will not in the future. I don't have to pay to drink the kool aid, the kool aid's always been free.
