Ive read her personal and political resume (not too shabby for a lib) and nowhere does it say “lesbian”.

She no more or less supports gay issues than any other democrat

Our MD governor Marty O Malley pushes gay marriage but no one references Marty's sexuality everytime they write about him. Ditto with Bloomberg, Giuliani and countless other politicians of both parties

so why is this politician constantly referenced as a
“lesbian”. How tiresome.

Spends 2.3 million running for mayor?? Who paid for that? What do they expect in return for all that cash?

Councilwoman Jolanda Jones: she is a Sheila Jackson Lee wanna be. Beware.

Seriously, I bet no one knew here in Houston there was an election yesterday. The commies kept it that way so Ms. Parker could continue.

Jolanda Jones is an embarrassment. I don’t even live in the city, but may donate some $$ to Jack Christie.
