Payback Time

Last night, Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman was outed, on CNN's Larry King Live by political comedian Bill Maher, as being gay. CNN later cut the Mehlman segment from the show's tape.

Today, Mehlman announces he's leaving the chairmanship, citing exhaustion. Here's CNN's online version of the story—no mention of Mehlman's sexual orientation.

Looks to me as if Maher's dishing out some payback to the Republicans. Understandable, but not a good thing to do.

Hi Katherine,

Long time no scribble :-) I'm going to be a grandfather in a few months too.

Mark! How wonderful to hear from you! Are you back home safe?

For a while Katherine. I'll be going back soon. The mail to the addy you have in your blogger profile from gmail that starts with the name of an ape is from me :-)
