>      Governor Bush's record on lesbian and gay civil rights is really,
>     really, awful. And this affects me in a very personal way. Here's
>the Bush record and my future, if he became President:
>
>      - Bush publicly stated that being openly gay would not be
>compatible
>     with serving in his administration, and therefore, there would be no
>opportunity for me to participate at any level.
>
>      - Bush has gone on record saying "Gays would be inappropriate
>     parents"-- and openly opposed a measure to let Gay & Lesbian couples
>be foster
>     parents. We have friends here in Los Angeles who are foster parents,
>as well as adoptive parents, and I'm terribly worried
>     about Bush's stand on same sex adoption and foster parenting.
>
>       - In 5 years as Governor of Texas, Bush never once publicly
>addressed
>     the  AIDS epidemic.  He never even uttered the word.
>
>       - Despite 40 brutal murders of gays and lesbians since Matthew
>Shepard, Bush opposes all Hate Crime laws.
>
>       - Bush pledged his allegiance to the Texas Christian right by
>vowing to support laws criminalizing sodomy in their state.
>
>       - In 38 states you can be fired for being gay, and Bush opposes
>employment protection of Gays and Lesbians.
>
>       - Bush is adamantly against same-sex partnership rights, and I
>believe he would work to overturn the civil union legislation in
>     Vermont.
>
>      - Bush opposes sex education promoting safer-sex.
>
>      - Gov. Bush's Texas Republican Party refused to give space to Gay
>Log Cabin Republicans at the GOP state convention (3
>     times).
>
>      - As Governor, Bush refused to adopt an administration
>non-discrimination policy that included sexual orientation.
>
>      - As Governor, Bush publicly opposed adding "sexual orientation" to
>Texas' Hate Crime law.
>
>      - Our next president will appoint up to 4 new Supreme Court
>Justices whose decisions will profoundly affect our lives for the
>     next 20-30 years.

>      With much concern and much love...
