It’s an embarrassing time to be an LGBT Republican in Colorado. In fact, it’s so bad that I no longer will align myself with the GOP. Liberals already say gay Republicans should be embarrassed. They argue that the GOP has been maligning gay rights efforts for years, proving they don’t support LGBT Americans. Their opposition to gay marriage and maligning of transgender people should be enough to keep any LGBT American from siding with the party of the elephant, liberals say.
