Way to show some leadership, Bob. Nice defense of the First Amendment.

BTW... Homosexuals are sexual deviants. When two people of the same gender can have sex and concieve a child, then I'll retract my previous statement.

Don't hold your breath waiting... I won't.

Im not saying that I agree with the firing because I admit that I would not have fired Mr Smith.

However, in earlichs defense...
This was not the fight that he wanted to be involved in at this time. By firing Mr Smith he squelched the issue. Now the governor can tackle the bigger issues without this thing clouding the waters.

So I think that earlich was probably well served by his advisors to just dump the guy. After all, he served on the board as an appointee and can be removed for any reason. And it's easy to say that in this politically charged atmosphere you do have to watch what you say in public. Remember that maryland is a distinctly BLUE state and earlich is a GOP governor.

Except if you are a democrat and then you can say whatever you want and have your job and assets protected by the media and the 1st amendment. Because everyone knows that the GOP is the only accountable party.
