Maryland Senator Barbara Mikulski recently announced on Twitter she will co-sponsor the Respect for Marriage Act to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act. Bil Browning of The Bilerico Project notes, “with Maryland gearing up for a state-wide effort to gain marriage equality, she hasn’t endorsed marriage in her own state. So, technically, she’s one of those politicians who’s not for marriage, just anti-DOMA.” He also mentions that the never-married Mikulski might be a big ol’ lesbian—Michael Signorile certainly thinks so too be. That means Tammy Baldwin, wouldn’t be the first lesbian Congresswoman after all, just the first “openly lesbian” one.

These are the types of people who should be expected to come out, or better yet.. outed. Especially if they’re anti-gay or mum on LGBT issues.
If your part of State or Federal legislation, you’re free game to all who seek to out you for being Gay. It’s 2011 going on 2012. Get with the times.
till the world ends

Did MD Senator Barbara Mikulski support DOMA because she’s an ignorant hypocrite and a giant motherfucking asshole?

These are hardly new rumors, hasn’t Barbara Mikulski been called a lesbian for years? And without the prompting of not supporting gay marriage?

Ummm, you couldn’t be bothered to find out how this politician voted when DOMA was brought to the Senate floor in 1996?
SHE IS A FUCKING POLITICIAN; she voted FOR DOMA then.
FUCKING POLITICIANS, always only for themselves.
