DU bros trying to reduce legendary LGBT activist Torie Osborne to nameless "Hillary shill"

I had to google to find out who she really was and was floored to see how the Berniecrats are willing to dismiss her 40 years of stellar service to the community and support of the rights of women, LGBT, the homeless, the poor, etc., and her advocacy of a full spectrum of progressive causes. She has been on the front lines, fighting the good fight, her whole life, and they can't even bring themselves to say her name.

..."After helping to launch this magazine as a founding staff member in the mid-1970s, she played leadership roles in the National Organization for Women, a pioneering Los Angeles clinic for HIV/AIDS sufferers, and the national Gay and Lesbian Task Force that mobilized hundreds of thousands of civil rights marchers in Washington in 1993. While serving as director of Liberty Hill Foundation, and later with United Way, she helped channel millions of dollars from well-heeled Hollywooders into Los Angeles neighborhood projects dealing with gang violence, low-income housing, and environmental issues.

Torie has guided some of the nation’s most effective non-profit organizations as they tackled tremendous challenges – including the AIDS crisis, LGBT rights and economic justice. She served as Deputy Mayor for Neighborhood and Community Services for Los Angeles Mayor Antonio R. Villaraigosa, overseeing the Mayor’s field and civic engagement programs, and immigration reform strategy, and also spent two years as a senior policy advisor to the Mayor on homelessness, poverty, and economic development. She co-founded Mayor Villaraigosa’s Office of Strategic Partnership, a national model for social innovation through collaboration between philanthropy and local government. Torie was executive director of the Liberty Hill Foundation, one of the nation’s most admired social-change foundations, and of the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center at the height of the AIDS epidemic, as well as serving at the helm of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force in Washington, D.C. She has worked on governance and fiscal reform with California Calls, a statewide community organizing network increasing voter participation by young people, people of color and immigrants. Torie is known nationally for her community-organizing approach to solving problems and for being at the leading edge of major fights for social justice for four decades.
