....and supports gay marriage.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman says in a magazine interview that he is gay.

Mehlman, who was campaign manager for President George W. Bush in 2004, told The Atlantic that he came to the conclusion he is gay recently and wanted to talk about it publicly because he wants to become an advocate for gay marriage. He also thought questions would arise when he participates in an upcoming fundraiser for the group challenging California's ballot measure opposing those marriages.

Mehlman says in the interview that he's shared the news with family, friends and co-workers and they have been very supportive. Mehlman's leadership positions with the Republican Party came at a time when some in the party were working to put anti-gay ballot measures before the public in several states.

More do as I say, not as I do from the Republicans. 

When is the religious right in this country going to FINALLY learn that the GOP is selling them nothing but a bill of goods when they pander to them for their votes.

Ignorance and fanaticism are ravenous. They require constant feeding.
