Just one more reason not to vote Republican

Sometimes it does not matter if you have good customer service…. Especially if you are also a gay friendly business….

Seem according to KMSP in Minnesota’s Twin Cities the Virginia Republican delegation to next weeks Republican National Convention canceled their order of The Rake magazine's Secrets of the City guide because it includes a section for gays and lesbians.

The publication is a guide to various attractions in Minneapolis and St. Paul.

In Original cancellation request e-mailed from Melissa Busse, Virginia's Lt. Governor political director sent to Tom Bartel, of The Rake Busse said….

" I am so terribly sorry to do this, especially when the both of you have been so "out of your way" helpful, generous and easy to work with. But, we need to cancel the order for 150 of the "Secrets of the City" guidebooks.

Thanks for sending a copy to me so expediently, Tom. Upon looking at it, though, having a section dedicated solely to GLBT will be a BIG problem for many of our folks. We simply can't hand them out.
Please still bill us for the copy sent along with shipping, though.
Again, I'm so sorry."

I guess they were unhappy with the guide because it did not list one hot spot already well known to some Republican Leaders... The Men's Room at the Minneapolis Airport....
