Gay Right
Mr. Potter: It's interesting how your article fails to mention how Manchester (and his affiliate corporations) donated well over $300k to the "Yes on 8" Campaign... which literally took rights away from Gay CA Citizens. Two years later, in an effort to make it look like he is "impartial" to gay rights, Manchester offers a mere $16k to an extremely conservative "Gay Republican" Lobbying group... that doesn't actually concern itself with "gay equality". GOProud (and the Log Cabin Republicans) are notorious for aligning themselves with "fiscally conservative" causes, rather than actual Gay Civil Rights. Don't believe me? Look it up. Or maybe you should have before writing this article. After all, you are the "apparent" journalist. Unless, of course, you had an agenda from the start. Therefore, Mr. Potter, your article is basically comparing apples to oranges. In typical Republican Fashion, you are trying to prove that Mr. Manchester "really does care" about Gay Rights. When, in actuality, this "donation to GProud" was just a feeble attempt for Mr. Manchester to end the LGBT Boycott on the San Diego Hyatt property. Interesting how you conveniently left out that this "Pro-Gay Donation" happened to coincide w/ the 2010 San Diego Gay Pride Festival (which would have meant lots of "Festival-Goers" booking at his hotel). Hmmm.— January 16, 2012 12:50 p.m.
