Don't take my word for it take this lefty's blog...........
I think we just caught the DNC lying to the gay community about the election in Maine. And an email from DNC Treasurer Andy Tobias, which we quote below, proves it.
Joe broke the news on Monday that the DNC's "Organizing for America" group, formerly known as "Obama for America," contacted Mainers by email, urging them to vote on Tuesday, but without mentioning what the election was about, nor which way to vote. Among the measures up for a vote was ballot measure 1, the repeal of gay marriage in that state. A number of us were concerned as to why the DNC wouldn't inform gay voters that 1 was on the ballot, let alone not urging them to vote "no."
Shortly thereafter, a second Mainer received another email from the DNC's OFA. This one urged her to call five people in New Jersey, in order to help Jon Corzine's re-election for governor. This was disturbing for a number of reasons. First, why would the DNC ask Mainers to help out in New Jersey, while not asking Mainers to help on "1" or any other ballot measures in their own state? Second, the email was proof that the DNC was in fact doing more than sending generic "get out the vote" messages to advocate. In states they deemed worthy, they were actually organizing for specific things on the ballot. Marriage in Maine simply didn't pass muster.
But hey, as it stands, we know the real homophobes are Obamunists anyway. They came out in droves to back Obama last year, only to vote down the gay marriage law in California.....
Remember the fiasco over the wedge that appeared between liberal constituency groups blacks and gays over California's Proposition 8 voting? I'm shocked that Avarosis wouldn't be thrilled that for once Obama finally delivered for his real base, as opposed to simply pandering to them as he so often does. Just do the Math.
It isn't only Corzine gays are less important than. Heck, gays are all but at the back of the bus. But at least Obama hasn't yet thrown them off it, as he's done with so many others. The real question is, don't they sort of look like rubes for remaining on it themselves?
Oh, sorry, the rubes is us! Just don't tell Andy Sullivan. If he's ever forced to face the truth of it, he'll never get to the bottom of the mystery of his mind surrounding Palin's child! The reality based community. God bless them if only for the free entertainment they provide.
Most of California's Black Voters Backed Gay Marriage Ban 53% of Latinos Also Supported Proposition 8
The same voters who turned out strongest for Barack Obama also drove a stake through the heart of same-sex marriage.
