Weekly Reader: Mary Cheney, Phone Sex, & Women's Breasts

What a week of conversation on Bilerico! My three part series, "Is GetEqual the New HRC?" (Part 1: Follow the Money, Part 2: Behind the Veil, and Part 3: Through a Glass Darkly) sparked tons of comments and two guest posts from GetEqual Managing Director Heather Cronk (A Response and Clarification, and GetEqual Responds Again). With so many weighing in on those posts, you might have missed other great articles like these:

The Ten Unanswered Questions for GetEQUAL:

1. Who started GetEQUAL?

2. Who decided how much to pay everyone? And, why?

3. With only two major funding sources, who sets GetEqual's goals and priorities?

4. Who's accountable for GetEqual's actions? Who is in charge?

5. Will the GetEQUAL soon-to-be-formed Board be packed with cronies and allies or will it consist
of a respectable and diverse mix of seasoned and new activists?

6. What is GetEQUAL's strategy and what are the results you must achieve to be successful?

7. How do the "crazy shenanigans" (Cronk's words) benefit the LGBT Community?

8. How do efforts to embarrass our political friends (Democrats) help the LGBT Community?

9. How does "demanding" lead to changed minds or additional support for the LGBT Community? What "threat" is attached to these so-called "demands?"

10. When will GetEQUAL organize formally and comply with legal and disclosure requirements for Non-profit organizations?

Any honest, sincere organization would gladly answer these important questions before engaging in "crazy shenanigans." But, even late is better than never.

Kip Williams and Robin McGehee have a responsibility to the LGBT Community to answer ALL of these questions completely.
