Jesse Helms' Go-To Guy Ties The Knot
But not to whom you'd think. Ace GOP consultant Arthur Finkelstein married his boyfriend in a civil ceremony in Massachusetts this December. Surprise, surprise, according to The New York Times' Adam Nagourney, he did it to make sure he and his partner had the same benefits available to hetero couples:
"I believe that visitation rights, health care benefits and other human relationship contracts that are taken for granted by all married people should be available to partners," he said.
If I feel the same way, does that make me a Republican consultant?
I love it when the boundaries get blurred like this. It's exciting to think that support for this position could represent a shift to the center for the Republicans.
Crid?
