Right decision, wrong reason
Let there be no cheers for Rob Portman. The Ohio senator is, pardon the tautology, a conservative Republican and last week, he did something conservative Republicans do not do. He came out for same-sex marriage. This is a man whose anti-gay bona fides...Tags: Herman Cain, University of Michigan, Social Issues, Same-Sex Marriage, Gays and Lesbians

"Atlas Shrugged" evil alive and well
