This is truly a sad day in the Old Dominion Commonwealth. Those of us who are involved in the Landover Baptist outreach program to East-Coast elected officials thought that Virginia Governor Robert McDonnell was ready to renounce his liberalism and embrace True Christianity™. Now it appears that he has renounced Christ and become more liberal than ever.
From The Washington Compost:
Note that last part. The promoters of sodomy are clearly motivated by bigotry, and we who defend the one true sexual orientation must fight bigotry against all people, even Mary-hailers.

Va. Gov. McDonnell prohibits bias against gay state workers
RICHMOND -- Hoping to quell a growing uproar on Virginia's college campuses over gay rights, Gov. Robert F. McDonnell issued a directive to all 102,000 state employees Wednesday that prohibits discrimination in the state workforce, including on the basis of sexual orientation, and warns he will reprimand or fire anyone who engages in it.
McDonnell's directive comes a week after Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli II (R) distributed a letter to the state's public colleges and universities asking them to remove references to sexual orientation from their campus nondiscrimination policies. Cuccinelli says that only the General Assembly has the authority to extend legal protections to gays.

McDonnell's directive came on the same day that more than 1,000 students rallied at Richmond's Virginia Commonwealth University and as reaction to Cuccinelli's letter had been growing nationally and within Virginia's business community. The topic was a subject of a lengthy segment on "The Daily Show" Tuesday, and some students had been sending e-mails about their concerns to Northrop Grumman, the defense corporation weighing sites around the region for its corporate headquarters, urging them to avoid Virginia.

[The fag-enablers] were countered on the House floor Wednesday by Del. Robert G. Marshall (R-Prince William), who suggested the reaction against Cuccinelli might be an attack against his Catholic faith.
