Apache Junction, Ariz., June 19 -
Meeting for their annual Father's Day celebration, the Pinal County Greens passed a resolution commemorating Father's Day 2011 and naming anti-gay Republican politician Matt Salmon Arizona's Worst Father of the Year.
Pinal County Greens Co-Chair Richard Grayson, 60, said the designation of the homophobic Republican former Congressman and current Congressional candidate -- Salmon is running for the East Valley U.S. House seat being relinquished by Jeff Flake -- "should not detract from the group's general wishes that everyone have a Happy Father's Day, especially my own wonderful father living right here in the East Valley. It's too bad that Matt Salmon's son didn't luck out the way I did in getting such a great and loving dad."
The Pinal County Greens are members of the Arizona Green Party living in Pinal County, the second-fastest-growing county in the United States, according to the 2010 Census.
