Gay Republican leader: Giuliani & Schwarzenegger GOP Convention speeches are "Putting lipstick on the pig"

"Our party can't have it both ways. We can't have the folks sitting in this room crafting a vicious mean-spirited platform, and then our party trying to put lipstick on the pig by sticking Rudy Giuliani and Arnold Schwarzenegger in prime time." - Christopher Barron, spokesman, Log Cabin Republicans (the largest gay Republican group), on CNN, Aug 25, 2004
Yikes, tell us what you REALLY think Christopher? Seriously, this is an amazingly forthright and honest statement of the truth from Log Cabin. Gays have been fucked by this administration and this convention, and Log Cabin is holding the GOP's feet to the fire rather than playing the apologist.

I've criticized Log Cabin in the past, but so far they've been incredibly true to their ideals and their mission in dealing with this GOP platform fiasco. Kudos to them, and keep it up.
