Florida gay marriage ban campaign bankrolled by GOP

florida Just in case you were actually thinking about dating or doing a Log Cabin Republican, here's more evidence your local self hating denialists are sure to blindly glaze over and ignore. The group trying to put a gay marriage ban on the Florida ballot in 2006 is being bankrolled by the state Republican Party. That's right, new state campaign finance records show that of the $193,000 that has been raised by Florida4marriage.org, $150,000 of it came in a single donation from the Florida Republican Party. "It certainly was helpful," Florida4Marriage chairman John Stemberger said of the donation, which he said was unsolicited. "I'm not at liberty to discuss the details, but they came to us and gave us the money."
