What to do with the worst of the worst
It doesn't leave us an easy choice when the House of Representatives is chosen. What I have decided, then, is to make life easier by using the Human Rights Committee to identify the worst of the worst. These Republicans - and those few wacky Democrats - are identified as those who have refused to say 'yes' to any sensible changes in laws that would make lives easier for gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and the transgender people. Here is the list o' shame:

*note: this record is a complete posting of the previous data. Naturally, men and women come and go in such a large body.
If you are not among the ones listed, don't worry - you can still send a check to his/her opponent.
If you are among the unfortunate band who are represented by these troglodytes, here's a few things you can do:
1) If you know that your opponent will be challenged with certainty, volunteer and/or donate NOW.
2) If a candidate is thinking of running, encourage her/him.
3) If no one seems to be running, YOU can run.
Wow- that's a long one.
