The Marriott hotel chain is known for its comfortable rooms and amenities. But in addition to a plethora of appeasing services, the popular company also offers value packages to individuals who are gay. Curiously, numerous hotels within the Marriott chain offer what they call “OUT” packages.

At the Renaissance Washington Marriott in Washington, D.C., for instance, the deal includes chocolate covered strawberries, sparking wine upon arrival and a copy of NaviGaytour Magazine, among other benefits. ...

Mitt Willard Romney, named after J. Willard Marriot the founder of the chain, has extensive ties to them.

Aren’t the Marriotts Mormons? And good friends of the Romneys? I know they both have modest bungalows (/s) on Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire quite near each other.

I am traveling this summer with my teen aged daughter. For a discount, I could pretend to be a perv!

But, my wife would probably think that is in poor taste.

What do you think of your Alma Mater, Lieutenant? This would fit right in with their gay agenda.

Unless you smoke. I'm reminded of the Nazi war on smoking and The Pink Swastika. I'm awaiting for Marriott to provide "corporatist" packages to the OWS stormtroopers.

I am staying OUT of Marriott hotels. Pretty much rather sleep in my truck than just about any hotel nowaday. Turn on your black light and get a scare you can’t top at the best haunted house in town.
