In case anyone had any doubt that the charmers at the National Organization for Marriage just hate gay people, take a look at Massachusetts' sixth district and the House race between Richard Tisei, a gay Republican who thinks LGBT people should have rights, and Seth Moulton, a straight Democrat who also thinks LGBT people should have rights. NOM is spending around $4,000 urging conservatives to vote for Moulton, support Moulton would really rather not have. NOM claims its distaste for Tisei is about his positions on the issues, but its logic there isn't real logical:
“The National Organization for Marriage urges you to refuse to vote for Richard Tisei. In fact, we ask you to vote for the Democratic candidate, Seth Moulton, even though Moulton is also wrong on the issues,” Brown wrote. “The reason for this is that Moulton can’t do any damage as a Democrat in a House of Representatives controlled by Republicans, and we can work together to elect a true conservative in two years to replace him. But Richard Tisei serving as a supposed Republican in a House controlled by Republicans can do great damage, and could end up holding the seat for decades.”
Asked whether Moulton would welcome or reject votes cast in his favor by NOM supporters, a spokesperson for Moulton responded, “Reject.”
“Seth Moulton fundamentally disagrees with everything NOM stands for and has long said that equality is the civil rights fight of our generation,” said Carrie Rankin, Moulton’s communications director. “Fighting against groups, like NOM, that deny equality as a basic human right will be a priority of Seth’s in Congress.” Rankin noted that Moulton has a gay brother and Moulton has said, “It’s fundamentally wrong that he and I don’t share the same rights just because of who he is.”
this is a guy has a moral compass and that is sorely missing from republican contenders we need those who would follow the party line it is a good one sadly we have not fought back enough to reclaim the definition of it instead we let them define it as they have tried to stereotype us as no shows at midterm elections, this is our moment in history we stand and be counted or get crushed under elephant hoofs.
