Log Cabin Republicans Deep In Debt!

This one falls under the "My Heart Bleeds for You" category, and I mean that with all the irony I can muster.

Seems the Log Cabin Republicans are facing a financial crisis. They ended the year at least $100,000 in debt according to a report in the Washington Blade. The group faced a lackluster 2008 as far as fund raising goes.

Patrick Sammon, President of the group was quoted in the Blade:
“Really what we anticipated was that 2008 would be a better year fundraising-wise based on what we’ve seen in other presidential election years,” he said. “We just didn’t see the fundraising materialize the way that we expected.”
I really gotta hand it to the LCR's, they can do "denial" as well as their straight counterparts. Of course they came up short in fundraising. The GOP candidates were about as homophobic as they come. When will these Bozos quit living in their fantasy world where the GOP suddenly realizes that it has been dead wrong in its policies towards LGBT people? It ain't gonna happen!

If anything the Republicans are circling the wagons and becoming more rigid in their social idology than ever. It's all they have left.

So I will get out my little violin and play a sad song for the Log Closet Republicans and wish them well as they continue to beat their heads against the stone wall that is the GOP.
