While anti-Bush protestors streamed through the streets yesterday, Log
Cabin Republicans held a swank gathering in Midtown to talk about
their party's platform. George Pataki, Rudy Guiliani, Arnold
Schwarzenegger, and Arlen Specter were among the invited guests.
Guiliani and Schwarzenegger didn't show, but the prospect of finding a
number of key Republicans in one place apparently prompted a group
called Gays Against Bush to protest outside the gathering. Members of
Gays Against Bush say they are appalled by the GOP platform. Funny
thing is, so are the delegates they were protesting.
Inside and outside the Log Cabin Republicans' event yesterday, there
was striking agreement that Bush's platform and presidential campaign
have been hijacked by the far right. "There are two Republican parties
right now," said Patrick Guerriero, executive director of the Log
Cabin Republicans. "There's a party platform and a radical right
agenda, and then there's a group of inclusive Republicans. It's time
the party made a choice to be either a party of inclusion or a party
that totally caters to the radical right."
