Battle of the California Homosexuals

http://www.bluelemur.com/

Apparently two homosexual candidates - one an outed gay and the other an acknowledged lesbian - are running in a California Congressional district. (Natutally, the Democrat is the one that's honest about it.)

Oh where are the poor bigots in that district to turn now ?

1. And when will the media notice?
We've spoken to both the LA Times and Dreier's district papers (which are alleged to have told reporters that they'd be fired if they asked Dreier about his sexuality or his positions on gay issues) and they both have said they don't plan a story.

But when two women first ran against each other it was a story, or two black candidates. I guess gays just aren't as important. Not to mention Dreier's voting record, or the salary he's paying his chief of staff.
