Philadelphia, PA ? Today, Pennsylvanians for Hillary Clinton announced the formation of its statewide Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Steering Committee for Hillary which consists of dozens of LGBT leaders throughout the Keystone state. The steering committee will host a kick-off event at Woody?s Bar and Grill on April 12th with special guest recording artist Sophie B. Hawkins.The list of supporters reflects the diversity of the LGBT community which includes community leaders, elected officials, educators, healthcare professionals, and business owners.

Hmmm.  I'd be curious to know how diverse this group really is ... how much representation from the bisexual and trans communities?  Anyone who is actually poor (college years don't count) and gay?  How many persons of color and is it proportional to the larger community? 

I'm especially curious about the T factor given the hoopla over ENDA on the national level.

And why kick off at a bar?  Sing it sisters ... stereotype! (Does she support creating a healthier work environment in that bar with a smoking ban and a union?  Would the owners still give her money?)

On the flip side, no news of a steering committee from the Obama camp.  I'll have to ask dayvoe about that one.  Do we have any ex-gay leaders living in Pennsylvania?

Anyway, here's the list of Hillary's homos.  See if you recognize any names.  Ask them about any upcoming Pittsburgh based Hillary/LGBT appearances or events.  I'll have my shiny new press pass by then, surely.
