Homophobic Florida AG McCollum Loses Primary
Ha ha! The most satisfying result in yesterday's primary elections was the defeat of Florida Republican Attorney General Bill McCollum to a billionaire businessman named Rick Scott. Polls had given McCollum the edge, but he ran into trouble when word leaked about his decision to give more than $100,000 of tax payer money to gay rent-boy employer George Rekers to testify on behalf of the state's legal defense of its ban on adoption by gay and lesbian couples.
