Little Ricky signs sexual orientation non-discrimination policy

Hahahahahahahahahahaha. Man-on-dog really didn't have much of a choice on this one, since the cat is out of the bag that he has an out gay communications director, Robert Traynham. Questions about that would have been dicey, albeit delicious, to see him field. (PageOneQ):

After a meeting with a Pennsylvania-based activist Adrian Shanker, US Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA) has signed onto a letter affirming that his office does not discriminate in hiring on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity, PageOneQ has learned. Santorum is the 170th member of Congress to sign the statement.

In a statement issued by GenderPAC, the Gender Public Advocacy Coalition, executive director Riki Wiliams said, "We welcome Sen. Santorum's signature affirming the need for basic equality in his own hiring practices. It puts him in good company with 169 other Members of Congress who have signed this statement."

Maybe doing this will scrape up a few sad homo votes for the Pennsylvania senator, since he's trailing Casey so badly in the polls that Ricky and the GOP are bankrolling the Green Party candidate to toss a wrench in the works.

A little blast from the past:

"If the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery. You have the right to anything."

"It is entirely unacceptable that my staffs' personal lives are considered fair game by partisans looking for arguments to bolster my opponent's campaign. Mr. Traynham continues to have my full support and confidence as well as my prayers as he navigates this rude and mean spirited invasion of his personal life."
