In Ohio, the Republican House Speaker Jon Husted is opposing a bill to
ban gay couples from adopting or providing foster care, and
Husted's chief of staff called the measure "divisive legislation,"
saying that Husted wants to see the House focus on other issues.
The Buckeye State's Democratic party chairman told the media that
Democrats will likewise work to ensure that the bill never comes to
a vote. That's the sort of bipartisanship I like, fair-minded
voices in both parties speaking out against the wingnuts, who are
usually but not always (see Byrd, Robert) Republicans.
