If a public figure is voting for anti-gay legislation and setting public policy then Why? I see no logic at all in your reasoning. If the public figure is voting for anti-gay legislation, then you know that he is anti-gay policy-wise, and you should or shouldn't vote for him on those grounds. Why do you have any right to know his private sexual details? Maybe he is gay and is ashamed of it, or he's just a hypocrite, or maybe he isn't gay at all...but why is that your business? If he was somehow under oath and asked that question (wild divorce flap for example), then you would have that right, but not otherwise. I believe the public has a right to know considering that his lover/partner has been hired as his Chief of Staff and is paid by the taxpayer. Do you have the right to know the sexual orientation of every government employee? I don't think so. Why just this guy? Brian
