Bush's "Gay Aide" to be new Assistant Secretary of Commerce

(Was this one of "Jimmy-Jeff's Buddies" or contacts in the WH...hmmmm and he's being considered against the wishes of the Christian Righ...what about Mehlman? How many more appointees might have had contact with Jimmy/Jeff and going all the way back to Texas. What about McClellan in that Texas bar. This Administration is so OTT in it's hypocracy)
..................................................................
The Gay Aide

New York Daily News gossip columnists George Rush and Joanna Molloy publicly out White House aide Israel Hernandez this morning: "President Bush isn't letting potential howls from the Christian right stop him from nominating an openly gay man as assistant secretary of commerce. . . .

"The 35-year-old Republican go-getter has been a Bush acolyte since the President's 1994 campaign for governor of Texas. (Among Hernandez's duties was supplying the candidate with breath mints, prompting Dubya to dub him 'Altoid Boy.'). . . .

"One source tells us Hernandez waited until Bush was sworn in for a second term to formally tell him he is gay. By then, says a source, he'd brought his partner to several official events.

"Hernandez appeared yesterday before the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee. Asked by Sen. Ted Stevens (R-Alaska) if he'd like to introduce anyone, Hernandez mentioned his sister, mother and father."
