And openly homosexual. Good for him! Nice to see that people can still rise to the top even with learning disabilities and that the Dem legislation didn't consider his sexuality to be a barrier in appointing him.

I think you've got the parties confused when you were talking about barriers to appointing him. It's the Republicans who don't want equal rights for gays.

Some Republicans.
Just like some Democrats don't support homosexual marriage, refer to California's Prop 8. And even Obama was for DOMA when running for President in 2008.

One of the factors in the rise in Democrats taking over the House was the actions of the House GOP leadership denying legislators the right to vote on civil unions.
