I have received an advance copy of their report going out today. And it ain't pretty:

The key graph:

As the general election kicks off, Senator John McCain will tout his reputation as a maverick, an independent, a moderate who will work with both parties to get things done. However, a look at Senator McCain’s record paints a very different picture.   What we have seen over the last seven years has been President Bush — despite his promise to be a "uniter, not a divider" —repeatedly siding with ultra-conservatives and the religious right at the expense of protections for GLBT Americans. A McCain presidency would be another four years of more of the same.  

Oh, but there's more. Some highlights:

Opposed Ending Discrimination Against GLBT Americans in the Workplace. Senator McCain cast a deciding vote against the federal Employment Non Discrimination Act.

Opposed Protecting GLBT Americans from Hate Crimes.  Senator McCain voted three times against expanding the federal hate crimes law to include sexual orientation.

Proponent of Discriminatory Military Policy.  Senator McCain supports Don't Ask, Don't Tell and does not believe that gays should serve in the military.

Opponent of Equal Benefits for Same-Sex Couples.  Senator McCain voted for the Defense of Marriage Act which prohibits same-sex couples from receiving federal rights and benefits in any state.

Actively Supported State Ban on Domestic Partnerships.  Senator McCain campaigned for a ban on same-sex relationship recognition in his home state of Arizona - even appearing in a campaign television ad.

Supported the Confirmation of Anti-GLBT Equality Judges.  Senator McCain voted to confirm President Bush's judicial nominees who had taken anti-GLBT positions.  He has pointed to Justice Samuel Alito as a role model for future Supreme Court appointments.

Supported a Discriminatory HIV/AIDS Policy.  Senator McCain supported a Jesse Helms strategy to cut off funding for prevention efforts aimed at the gay community and voted to prohibit foreign nationals with HIV from immigrating to the United States.

The ever-talented Mike Rogers has more at Pageoneq.

Additionally, I have a section in The Real McCain on Senator McCain's betrayal of The Log Cabin Republicans, and really all gays and lesbians, with his promises to be for domestic partnerships, while actively campaigning against them in his home state of Arizona--not to mention his changing positions on gay marriage and civil unions within the span of a single television show on two different occasions:

During that election, McCain agreed to sit down with the premier GOP gay advocacy organization, the Log Cabin Republicans, which President Bush pointedly refused to do. McCain didn’t make any promises, but many of the group’s members supported McCain vocally and financially thereafter, endorsing a potential candidacy in 2004.39

Since then, however, McCain has demonstrated impressive verbal gymnastics on the issue of gay rights. That includes clever caveats, position switching, and the artful avoidance of straight talk. His maneuvers have created some fun television moments.

In October 2006, Hardball host Chris Matthews asked McCain if he supported gay marriage. McCain said, “I think gay marriage should be allowed if there’s a ceremony kind of thing if you want to call it that. I don’t have any problem with that.” When the show resumed after a commercial break, McCain hijacked a question on a completely different topic and interjected, “I think private ceremonies are fine. I do not think gay marriage should be legal.”40

The next month, McCain was a guest on This Week with George Stephanopoulos. Stephanopoulos asked McCain whether he was against civil unions for gay couples. “No, I’m not,” McCain replied. A few minutes later, Stephanopoulos tried again. “So you’re for civil unions?” “No,” McCain said. Neither for nor against civil unions, McCain went on to clarify his position. He was against “discrimination,” and he referred obliquely to certain partnerships qualifying for things like “hospital visits.”41

Yet the state constitutional amendment that he stumped for in Arizona that year would have banned not only gay marriage but also all benefits for domestic partners — including hospital visits.

As on most issues, what McCain says and what he does regarding gay rights have absolutely no relation to each other (or more accurately, what he says one minute vs. what he says the next one).
