Good. All the Evangelicals can vote Democrat or stay home so they can then have even more liberals on the courts, gay marriage and a whole bunch of other leftist policies thrown at them.
So he's gay. I care because ......?
Its no surprise, really, and its another reason why Rice would probably be a complete disaster as a Presidential candidate.
The big money corporate elements of the GOP have already sided with the homosexual agenda in large part, so we should probably expect eventual betrayal from the party elite, just as they have done on immigration and racial preferences.
At this point, the most that the Evangelical community can really hope for is to attain an environment where the judiciary is not hostile towards traditional values, and is willing to stay out of social policy. Then at least, there is a chance to win on big issues like marriage in most states.
If the whole base is outraged and fuming, these journalists should find some other offendees to quote.
It is shameful that Republicans think gay people should not be treated with respect. Shameful.
What's WorldNetDaily pushing this divisive stuff too? It's as bad as the NY Times/Wash Post/ABC/NBS/SeeBS.
There's already a thread that's over 400 posts; how many do we need to have on this "topic"?
Same gender sex is sin. Having said that, homosexuals live, move and breathe in this world. I'm not going to say none should ever be given jobs in the government.
Is Rice "outing" somebody?
This story, although from a different source, has already inspired a thread:

Well, you have to admit it is appropriate that a queer is appointed to head the venereal disease commission since said set of diseases is most prevalent in this subpopulation of deviants.
Not engaging a disgusting sexual deviant has little to do with religion. If people think that only evangelicals are disgusted by homosexual behavior they are in denial about reality or unaware of what the hell is going on.
Why is this news? Crazy dictators with nukes, overseas war, terrorists blowing crap up and the thing that makes a head lines is Rice saying something inconsequential? Sounds like the media is trying to find another thing to divide repubs over.
Any truth to the rumors that Rice isn't playing for the right team?
Another stupid "conservatives upset" article.
Why do I care what Rice thinks. I'm not voting for her.
Would this have made more sense?
The "mother-in-law" remark was pandering. Rice is a federal official and any legal status of the gay couple -- marriage, civil union, etc. -- has no recognition under federal law. Rice might as well have spoken of a "mother out-law."
