HRC in Pennsylvania

I feared that last email had to be too good to be true:

I just couldn’t let this one go.  The recent post on HRC has me all up in arms.

Yes, HRC helped defeat a pro-gay Republican, Mike Fitzpatrick, and elect Patrick Murphy to Congress. Former Congressman Mike Fitzpatrick (R-PA) supported ENDA, supported ending DADT and allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly in the military, voted for hate crimes, and voted against the Federal Marriage Amendment. Fitzpatrick had lots of gay support.  In fact, just before Election Day, the Log Cabin Republicans held an event for Fitzpatrick in New Hope, PA.  It was very well attended.

If HRC’s priority is electing Democrats, then they did a good job in PA.  But if their priority is to help candidates who support LGBT issues, then their working to defeat Mike Fitzpatrick ought to cause outrage.

Punishing pro-gay Republicans: sounds like HRC.
