News To Ibendahl: Kjellander The Least Gay GOP Member Ever

August 18, 2008 By: ArchPundit Category: Uncategorized

Somehow, Kjellander and McKenna are responsible for a pub crawl to gay bars supporting McCain:

I didn’t go this year. Like most Republicans, I saw all I needed to see at our State GOP Convention two months ago in Decatur. It’s clear that our Illinois GOP is going nowhere until we clean house of the likes of State Party Chairman Andy McKenna, Jr. and Chairman of the County Chairmen’s Association Randy Pollard.

You simply can’t run a rigged-up mess like that Decatur disaster in June and then honestly ever expect decent Republicans to follow you in the future. That’s just not how it works. We need new leaders, competent leaders who understand even the simplest basics of Management 101.

Let’s face it, if any Republican really felt the need to get sodomized (politically speaking) once again, they might just as well join that other McKenna backed organization on a Chicago gay-bar-hopping tour.

Please, please tell us about the integrity of marriage Doug.  That is after you explain why you are not married, but living in sin.

Look, I would agree that McCain needs every vote he can get, and we as Republicans can’t reject the votes of gay folks or anyone else. But is it credible that anyone is going to have a serious discussion about McCain’s qualifications over the throbbing blare of dance music in some gay pick-up bar? (That’s exactly what most of the bars on the itinerary above are, and anyone who lives in Chicago knows it.) This just looks to the casual observer like an excuse to go drinking in some gay hot spots.

Because if the Family Taxpayers clan are about anything, they are about serious discussions…
