Letter Title (Pull Quote):

"The cover picture of Hillary Clinton and the accompanying cloying interview screamed superficiality."

Letter Body:

Congratulations! You have taken a news magazine for the GLBT community and turned it in to a mindless, inane celebrity impressed rag. The cover picture of Hillary Clinton and the accompanying cloying interview screamed superficiality. I am a left-wing gay Democrat and have read the Advocate for years. Why are you glorifying Senator Clinton? She and her husband brought us "don't ask, don't tell" and refuses to endorse gay marriage. She doesn't support unions and has sat on the board of Wal-Mart. She is supported by the Democratic Leadership Council that gets its money from the same corporations that support the Republicans. She refuses to say she was wrong for voting for the Iraq war and her health-care proposal is the same old insurance and pharmaceutical company run rot held together with band-aids. She supports NAFTA and free trade responsible for the exporting of jobs and benefiting big business. Kucinch is the only candidate that has supported all our issues. If you want to interview a woman, Elizabeth Edwards has endorsed same-sex marriage even though her husband hasn't. I guess I'll save my re-subscription money and send it to MoveOn.org.
