Virginians' Guidebooks to Minneapolis Returned to Publisher Due to Gay Nightlife Section
By BRIAN ROSS, MADDY SAUER and ANNA SCHECTER
September 3, 2008
A campaign official for the Virginia Lieutenant Governor cancelled an order for 150 guidebooks to entertainment in Minneapolis-St. Paul after discovering they included a 6-8 page section for gay and lesbian nightclubs.
"Having a section dedicated solely to GLBT will be a BIG problem for many of our folks. We simply can't hand them out," wrote the aide, Melissa Busse, in an email to the guidebook publisher, Rake Publishing, obtained by ABC affiliate KSTP.
Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling said he was not aware of the decision by his aide and disagrees with it.
The books, intended as welcome gifts to members of the Virginia delegation, were called "Secrets of the City."
Rake's website features information and listings for an array of nightlife activities for gays and lesbians in the Minneapolis area, including "queer speed dating", trivia night, and dildo bingo.

"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

I'm sure a certain portion of the Virginia delegation know how to use google.
