When every member of the state’s congressional delegation except Representative Stephen F. Lynch signed onto a brief Friday asking the US Supreme Court to overturn the Defense of Marriage Act, it seemed like a case of the South Boston Democrat being a bit more conservative than his liberal Massachusetts colleagues.
But then his congressional office said it was a matter of unreceived e-mail, not a political decision by Lynch to stay on the sidelines, calling him an unwavering defender of gay rights. His Senate campaign went a step further, suggesting that Lynch — who lacks the national Democratic backing of his special election opponent, Representative Edward J. Markey — might be the victim of a deliberate exclusion.

So Lynch is also a LIAR, in my estimation. What a load of bull.

Sounds like Bullcrap to me.
Hey, Boatdope, put down the hashpipe and come out of your mom's basement...you're sounding like a T-Party looneytune...
Lynch hasn't figured out yet that moderate democrats are no longer wanted in the party, if you're not far to the left on issues you lose.
You apparently don't know what "far left" is. I can't think of a Democrat currently in office that isn't moderately liberal.
Do you know what far left is? Democratic socialism, which is common in Europe, is much further left than liberalism, and beyond that is communism.
Educate yourself so you won't make such foolish statements in the future. For left indeed.
Yeah, right, Steve. The check is in the mail....
Sorry, Mr. Lynch, your explanation doesn't pass the smell test. This is not a money bill. It's about people, human beings' lives. Sorry, no room for oops moments, 4 times.
A typical lyin project Southie sleazebag!!!! "Southie Rules" watch it!!!
This way Lynch gets to play both ends against the middle.
Liar- he just looks corrupt!
The Democrat party is now owned by the gay rights activists. That is why no Democrat in the nation dare cross them.
By the way, this notion of gay rights is ludicrous. Can anyone explain to me why anybody should be a protected class and have rights afforded to them because of who they have sex with?
