The blogosphere has been chattering this afternoon about a supposedly anti-gay robo-call the McCain campaign launched at Gov. Mitt Romney.

The attacks on Sen. John McCain by the gay Left are completely out-of-bounds and don’t reflect the facts. 

Let’s look at those facts:

Had anyone bothered to reach out to the McCain Campaign, they would have realized Sen. McCain immediately stopped the calls.  The campaign told us Sen. McCain never saw the script and never approved it, which is why he stopped the calls ASAP.

Of course, those facts won’t satisfy the left-wing who pounces on these kinds of things.  But where were these same left-wingers when Democrat Barack Obama, who has never introduced a single piece of pro-gay legislation in his Senate career, paraded around on stage with an anti-gay religious leader who believes in so-called “conversion therapy”?  Where were they when Democrat Sen. Hillary Clinton couldn’t bring herself to denounce Gen. Peter Pace’s anti-gay remarks last year?  Where were they when Obama proposed meetings and negotiations with the gay-murdering president of Iran?

We can’t defend the McCain staffer who initiated these short-lived robo-calls, but let’s hold both sides accountable, folks!
