Sen. John McCain took time out of his busy campaign schedule to hold a meeting with the leader of national "gay" and lesbian political organization Log Cabin Republicans, according to a prominent weblog.
Log Cabin President Patrick Sammon confirmed in an e-mail yesterday to the Gay Patriot, the self described "Internet home for the American gay conservative," that he had a personal meeting with McCain:
We've had a series of productive meetings with the campaign since Sen. McCain won the nomination – including a recent meeting with the Senator. We expect to have more conversations with the campaign as we head toward November.
A Log Cabin insider claimed the meeting was not officially written into the senator's campaign schedule before it took place.
While the report does not give specific dates for the Sammon-McCain visit, it says the two met sometime in the "past couple of weeks or so."
No Republican presidential nominee has met with homosexual organizations since a 2000 meeting between then-Gov. George W. Bush and 12 prominent "gay" leaders – an invitation not extended to the Log Cabin Republicans. Since President Bush's election, he has never again met with a homosexual organization.
McCain also made an appearance on Ellen Degeneres' show in May, saying that while he is against "gay" marriage and supports "the unique status of marriage between and man and a woman," he believes same-sex couples should be permitted to enter into legal agreements for insurance and other reasons.
The senator also voted against a 2006 constitutional amendment to define marriage as a union between one man and one woman, saying, "The constitutional amendment we're debating today strikes me as antithetical in every way to the core philosophy of Republicans."
Many homosexual Republicans shifted their support to McCain after former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani's exit from the presidential race.

Did mcCain take it up the ass?
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”—Samuel Adams
ahem

I honestly don't know.
Ask him next time you see him...
So, might you be the S.O.B. who is the host of Libertysflame? Whomever you are, you are a baitful dickhead who can't tell a newssource from a failed forum. Which would make you a prime candidate to be Stonie. Especially after that last bait post by you to me slamming my religion. Asshole.
Are you claiming that this news article us untrue?
Mad Mac is pretty good at spin. He says one thing to evangelicals, then the opposite to gay activists. Crazy Johnny is a lot like Bill Clinton, who'd give a speech about "diversity" at a black Church in the morning, and in the afternoon would go and hang out at an all-white country club.
do you know of a politician who doesn't do that? ;)
If you google John MCain Patrick Sammon there are a lot of hits about the meeting. There is even one from Gaypatriot.net which I have never heard of. It says it is the website of Gay conservatives. It certainly does appear this meeting took place.
I shall not vote for evil, lesser or otherwise.
You are making it real hard to do some objective fucking discussion with your very very typically unprofessional editorialization in the title, bitch. Being coy gets you nowhere. In fact it earns you no brownie points either.
I am not angry about the thread topic wbales, read my last post to 'A K A has no stones in his scrotum' and see.
where's the link to the original article and what is its unedited title?
Following the links will take you there. I think you already changed the title. My title was better though.

"The real deal is this: the ‘royalty’ controlling the court, the ones with the power, the ones with the ability to make a difference, with the ability to change our course, the ones who will live in infamy if we pass the tipping points, are the captains of industry, CEOs in fossil fuel companies such as EXXON/Mobil, automobile manufacturers, utilities, all of the leaders who have placed short-term profit above the fate of the planet and the well-being of our children." - James Hansen
