Two prominent gay figures, activist David Mixner and widely read blogger Andy Towle, have pulled out of a Democratic National Committee fundraiser later this month amid growing calls to confront the administration at what was supposed to be its first large scale opportunity to bring in gay cash.
"I will not attend a fundraiser for the National Democratic Party in Washington next week when the current administration is responsible for these kind of actions," Mixner wrote of a motion to dismiss a challenge to the Defense of Marriage Act that drew a parallel between same-sex marriage to incestuous marriage. "How will they ever take us seriously if we keep forking out money while they harm us. For now on, my money is going to battles within the community such as the fight in Maine or the March on Washington! I am so tired of being told by Democratic operatives to 'suck it up' because so many other profound issues are at stake," Mixner wrote.
"I've had concerns about the lack of movement from the administration on LGBT issues for some time now but I wasn't comfortable attending after that DOMA brief came out," Towle, who writes the widely read Towle Road blog, said in an e-mail.

Ummmm, errrrr, Oh, never mind. Excuse me while I pull my mind outta the gutter.
“Gay figures pull out of Biden....”
Nah, they didn’t really say that, did they?
Heh
“r*****? ...damn near killed ‘em!”
“to confront the administration at what was supposed to be its first large scale opportunity to bring in gay cash.”
GAY CASH? What is GAY CASH, scented with eau de Bawney Fwank on a nice pomegranite and puce, printed on lace?
They could always give it to Ms. Lindsay Graham-nesty or Miss Charlene Crist-Amnesty.
Ya and her daughter was snorting coke...that's all.
ARE OH EFF ELL!
The kind earned by Bawney Fwank running a gay whorehouse out of his Apt.
This stuff writes itself.
These guys are just being tight asses.
I didn’t say that....oops
VERY good headline!
“The kind earned by Bawney Fwank running a gay whorehouse out of his Apt.”
Or paid to the (male) page that Gerry Studds (what a howler of a name) was screwing when the page was seventeen, to tell everyone he was really eighteen?
Sure you are.
He's a gay activist. What ELSE does he expect people to say to him?
“Mixner wrote of a motion to dismiss a challenge to the Defense of Marriage Act that drew a parallel between same-sex marriage to incestuous marriage”
It’s so funny that gays REALLY believe once they break down the sanctity of marriage, that it stops with them.
Once Pandora’s box is open, marriage will be something brothers and sisters can do, someone and their pet can do.
Gays laugh at that, but it’s coming.

They certainly poo-poo the idea of the slippery slope.
You must keep in mind, though, that “marriage” and “equality” really isn’t what they’re after.
It’s the destruction of traditional marriage that is the goal.
"I did not have sex with"....."that woman".
