Tobacco money funds Log Cabin Republicans, other conservatives
Log Cabin Republicans received $11,000 from tobacco giant Reynolds American Inc. in 2013, more than than the $4,000 the company gave to the Charles- and David Koch-supported Americans for Prosperity, The Center for Public Integrity reported. Reynolds also donated $10,000 to a group that’s been called “a secretly funded arm” of New Mexico Gov. Susanna Martinez’s re-election campaign. Martinez is a Republican.
I don’t understand the Log Cabin Republicans, and I’ve tried. They’re like the embarrassing cousins the Republicans hope won’t show up for the wedding. The GOP isn’t shy about showing its disdain for the LGBT community, but Log Cabin can’t take a hint and keeps knocking on the door. What’s worse is they support GOP candidates who make a show of gunning for us. They don’t want us to have equality, and they campaign to keep them from us. Still, Log Cabin members hope that if they show up at the wedding in fancy cars, they’ll get to join in the festivities.
Just keep driving around the back and park with the rest of the hired help.
