At some point, Andy Tobias may have to have a few scales surgically removed from his eyes.

The DNC and the White House are already in hot water with the gay community for a growing list of slights and grievances. But outright lying to the community about what the Democratic party did, or didn't do, to help gay and lesbian Americans and Democrats defend their civil rights this past election day in Maine - that crosses a line. A big one. Read my exposé on AMERICAblog gay .

SOUNDBITES – "As these comments show, you are being quite effective in turning people against support of the Democrats. That, by definition, helps the Republicans." —DNC treasurer Andy Tobias complaining about criticism over the DNC's complete inaction in (and lying about) Maine, in a statement that, uh, does not excuse the DNC's actions. As we've [...]

JOHN ARAVOSIS: Leaked email proves DNC misled gay community. DNC Treasurer Andy Tobias admits DNC intentionally asked Mainers to help Corzine, after DNC denied it. It’s all about priorities. Corzine was a big priority. You guys weren’t.

by Ben Smith Frustration among gay Democrats at the White House's unwillingness to make their issues a first-year priority -- or even, in some cases, to acknowledge them -- is boiling over today in the form of a move to boycott Democratic National Committee fundraising. Gay donors have long been a pillar of the DNC's support -- its treasurer, Andy Tobias, is a veteran gay fundraiser...

The group was made up of Lesley, Matt, Graham, Dave, Andy, Tobias, Donald, Melwin, Denise, Steven (in yet another cracking retro jersey!) and Neil with Michelle (our open hill climb winner) Stewart and John (from Pedal Power) out for the first time. We enjoyed the lovely autumnal weather and rode together as group pretty consistently, stopping...

A rather dispiriting thread at AmericaBlog on the topic of (what else?) a gay boycott of Obama/the DNC vs. sticking with the Democrats. DNC Treasurer Andy Tobias (pictured), himself an out gay man, argues with AmericaBlog's John Aravosis and is...

DNC Treasurer Andy Tobias joined in the comments section last night of John's latest post about the DNC's, and White House's, growing gay problem. And he wasn't very happy. He actually blamed John for the increasingly strained relationship between the gay community and the Democratic party. I've written a lengthy post about this on the AMERICAblog Gay .

Apparently, getting a corrupt New Jersey governor was a higher priority for the Obamunists than getting Maine's Issue 1 knocked down. Don't take my word for it take this lefty's blog........... I think we just caught the DNC lying to the gay community about the election in Maine. And an email from DNC Treasurer Andy Tobias, which we quote below, proves it. Joe broke the news on Monday...

John Aravosis has the story . Here's a leaked e-mail from Andy Tobias, DNC Treasurer, to donors: 1. An email went out asking activists to make calls to New Jersey. It was insensitive not to omit Mainers from that email. I apologize that no one thought to do that. I can't imagine it could have cost No On One even a dozen votes, but I still wish someone would have thought of this in time...
