Bagging Bill McCollum's Connection to George Reker



By this time, you've all heard the Rentboy.com story featuring a "baggage handler" who escorted super-hypocrite, anti-gay activist Dr. George Rekers on a bit of R and R across the Pond.

What you might not have yet heard is the Bill McCollum connection.

Seems the Florida AG and Republican Governor wannabe paid the good doctor $60,000 (and quite possibly more) to serve as an expert witness in a court case defending Florida’s prehistoric stance on gays adopting children.

Karma. It's a bitch.
