Some enterprising gay activists have developed a deck of "Gay Republican Hypocrites" playing cards, featuring 13 Republicans who've promoted homophobic and/or discriminatory policies at the state and federal level -- including now-ex Young Republican president Glenn Murphy Jr.. former congressman Mark Foley, disgraced senator Larry Craig, the late senator Jim West -- as well as reporter/male escort James Dale Guckert, a.k.a. Jeff Gannon, and others. The intent is to draw attention to what the creators see as hypocrisy among the GOP. "Republicans have made denying gay rights a central philosophy. If they're going to tell us how to live, they should live by the ideals they espouse. We'd be happy to include any Democrats that spoke out against gays and ended up in an airport bathroom with a police officer. " More than 3,000 decks have sold so far.

The creators planned to head to Minnesota for the RNC, to visit that Minneapolis airport bathroom stall that Craig made famous and to sell decks at the convention (or, more likely, to the protesters around it). No word yet whether they were successful.
