Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum yesterday stuck by his decision to hire anti-gay activist George Rekers -- the George Rekers who was later caught with a male escort -- when the state had to defend its ban on adoption by gay couples.
Rekers, who himself has adopted a child, testified in 2008 in defense of Florida's gay marriage ban, which McCollum supports. As AG, McCollum pushed to hire Rekers over the objections of Department of Children and Families.
