The Republican Party of Texas
banned gay interest groups from having booths at the party's convention in Fort Worth this past weekend.
“It’s simply unconscionable that more than a dozen years since Log Cabin Republicans took the fight for gay equality against the homophobic fringe of the Party, the Texas State GOP still doesn’t get it,” LCR National Executive Director Gregory T. Angelo said. “We are your friends and neighbors; we are your colleagues and family members; above all else, we are loyal Republicans, and deserve a literal seat at the table at the Texas State GOP Convention."
And while the Log Cabin folks are ecstatic that the convention
removed some of the most hateful language from the party platform, they do remind one of the guy who explained that the reason he was beating himself over the head with a two-by-four was that "It feels so good when I stop."
