Two more jump ship from DEM. Fund raiser

Two more LGBT leaders have pulled their support from next week's Democratic National Committee fund-raiser dinner in continuing fallout over a brief filed by the Obama administration last week in support of the Defense of Marriage Act.

Representatives from the National Stonewall Democrats and attorney Mary Bonauto of Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders are the latest to have backed out of attending a June 25 fund-raiser with Vice President Joe Biden. Software mogul and philanthropist Bruce Bastian, activist blogger Andy Towle, longtime Democratic figure David Mixner, and a handful of others had previously pulled out of the $1,000-per-plate fund-raiser.
