How about posting text instead of trying to get more hits on somebody's blog?
from that idiot Berkowitz:
..."Does the public need to know, or have the right to know, whether Mehlman is gay?
Over the past few years "there have been lots of questions about Mehlman's sexual orientation," but he refuses to answer any questions about it, long-time activist John Aravosis, author of AMERICAblog, pointed out in a recent posting.
According to Aravosis, there are a number of reasons why Ken Mehlman should answer these questions:
