    You have got to be kidding, a gay man is chief of staff for this hypocritical, homophobic, DOMA chump?? What is it that has all these gay men and I guess women in DC working for the GOP full onslaught hater of the lgbt community? I guess in this case Lopez has said what some women on some political sites have said, Ensign is, cough, cough, hot, ugh, what is it self hate or big bucks??

    @Dabq: If that is what you find hot then god I feel for you. However, the truth is that many gay men and women don’t use their sexual preference as part of their political beliefs. Perhaps this guy supports this douche because of his stands on the issues that don’t have anything to do with gay rights and looks the other way when it comes to gay rights. Also, not every gay guy believes in gay marriage. If someone doesn’t ever want to get married and doesn’t see the point to ever getting married, it is harder sell that gay marriage is a necessity.

    @galefan2004:
    That would be – sexual orientation or sexuality

    nice point of information. btw, the term is “adulterer,” not, um, “wife cheater.” 🙂

    This has been known for years. He shares a home in Rehoboth,DE with GOP fags. “Unfortunately” many of his roommates are ex-staffers and/or unemployed.

    This is the equivalent of the time when one of Jerry Falwell’s top speechwriters came out.

    Who next, Cal Thomas?? Pat Boone?? Mayor Bloomburg??

    That’s what gives these Republican assholes the idea that this minority of people that want to work for them represents ALL of us. If they can say,”Well, my gay staff says this” and their gay staff is just a bunch of sondercommandos, on WHOM do you place blame?

    My vote is for the sondercommando.

    Hey! I’m Andrew, damn it. You are… hmm… Andrew2? Son-of-Andrew? Ahhh… I got it: Andrew’s evil twin. 😉
