at all concerned over this decision?

I'm not asking if somebody agrees with the editorial leanings, but rather if a Roman Catholic should lose his job for expressing his religious belief. It seems as if he should have a good wrongful termination case, but I am ignorant of Maryland law.

Yikes. Yes, that sounds very heavy-handed to me.

For some reason I don't think this is how the story will end.

I assume the guy wasn't speaking in his official capacity as a part of the Metro transit board. I can't imagine why anyone would care what the guy that runs the subway thinks about gay marriage.

If that is the case then I think this guy is getting the shaft.

I foresee lititgation. Honestly... I wouldn't be surprised to see the ACLU step in to help this guy out.

I'd like the guy to ask the ACLU to help him out. They claim to be for civil liberties, but I don't think I've ever heard of the ACLU helping someone who didn't lean left.

Let's see if they really are for civil rights.
