Traditional Values Coalition misrepresents itself with ‘U.S. taxpayer census’ fundraiser
This is a tale about what the fringe social conservative movement stoops to when it knows it cannot reveal its true agenda to the general public. These organizations have to find creative ways to bring in the dough and keep the morally bankrupt ship of hate afloat.

The San Francisco Chronicle reports on interesting alternative efforts to fill the coffers of the Traditional Values Coalition, and it will curl your hair. Someone should get on the horn with Lou Sheldon about that little matter of “bearing false witness.”

Marcia Zwick, a resident in Napa, California, received an official-looking document in the mail labeled “U.S. Taxpayer Census — Do Not Tamper: Reply Within 5 Days.”

Yes, Lou, his spawn Andrea Lafferty (who works at TVC), and her husband Jim Lafferty, the executive director of the Christian Seniors Association, are running a fundraising scam on the public to further their battle against the LGBT community.

1. I'm in New York and I got that.
I wondered why the census was sending out material mid-decade.

And it is extremely official-looking.
