Presidential candidate Mitt Romney.
The Romney campaign has decided to stand silently aside as members of super and even not so super PACS have decided to attack members of the LGBT community as somehow posing a threat to America and to our moral character. Right-wing bloggers, pundits at Fox News and, saddest of all, the hierarchy of the Catholic Church have vilified gays, lesbians and bisexuals. In the spring, these attacks were a part of the undercurrent of the Republican rhetoric.
The theme was seemingly always present from sometimes snide comments about gays in the military to more pronounced statements at church suppers where gays became the symbol for what was wrong with the country.
