Personally, I don't care all that much that Ken Mehlman, the former chair of the Republican National Committee, is gay.  I think it is relevant, considering that when Mehlman was Bush's chief campaign strategist in 2004, he was instrumental in the plan to thrust DOMA into the limelight in order to motivate the (homophobic) Republican base.

So Mehlman's revelation is news.

But not to Fox News, who ignored the story.
