Charlie's Angels - Gay Rights / Surrender Advocate Fundraiser

WWCBD? Who is supporting Charlie Brown's campaign... how do they affect Charlie's decisions? You can glean important details about what someone would do in the office once elected.
I figured it would be a healthy project to look into Charlie's Angels - you know, the Convicted Felon Editor of the Auburn Journal, Nancy Pelosi, the crooked Lawyer (Vodonick) and now his most recent fundraiser Brad Sherman.
Sherman is a long-time Congressman who has distinguished himself for his Gay Rights advocacy. He is regarded as a Hard-Core Liberal by The Vote Match Quiz - a Project of www.ontheissues.org.
Sherman is a strong supporter of the impeachment of President Bush and supports immediate surrender (withdrawal) in Iraq within 90 days.
Sherman also favors a Department of Peace and Nonviolence as a cabinet-level office. Sherman was rated 89% by SANE
These stances on issues would suggest that Charlie Brown's anti-war activity meshes well with Brad Sherman's stances on the issues.
Sherman is rated 100% by the HRC - Human Rights Campaign, the largest GLBT organization in America. Sherman has been honored by that organization for his work to promote the normalization of Homosexuality.
Sherman was a leader in an effort to stop a Constitutional amendment defining Marriage as one man and one woman.
I could go on and on, but like Charlie Brown, Sherman is a member of the ACLU earning a 73% score from the ACLU, amongst the highest in Congress.
I wish I could have been a fly on the wall at that fundraiser Sherman held for Charlie Brown. I am sure Charlie's comments in opposition to drilling were only the tip of the Iceberg.
There is another important point to look at - the Blue Dog website does not have anything about Charlie Brown on it and Charlie does not mention a Blue Dog Democrat endorsement. Charlie has not had Blue Dogs, Moderates or Conservative organizations assist him with fund-raising.
Charlie's Angels - a window into the campaign ethics of Charlie Brown.


Yeah, chalk up another liberal supporter to this "conservative democrat." Who does Charlie think he's fooling?
