Labor Department hosts first rooftop same-sex wedding ceremony.

In the latest sign of just how far the administration has embraced same-sex marriage and the expansion of federal benefits to married gay couples, the Department of Labor headquarters building hosted a rooftop wedding between a worker and his partner Wednesday night.

Officials confirmed Thursday the wedding between a regional solicitor and his longtime mate. A reception in a conference room followed. No names were offered.

An official called it a “low-key” ceremony during which no federal funds were used. Labor Secretary Thomas Perez did not attend.

It is believed to be the first-ever same-sex marriage in a Cabinet-level headquarters building

We should do our nation building at home, not all over the world. What a radical idea, eh?

If some foreign country was doing that in the USA, any decent President would kick them the heck out.

Scuttle that spending. We have more important gender issues stateside. And cut the manpower at the Labor Department by 25% too.

This is not the business of the Dept. of Labor. Let the Moroccans work out their own gender programs.

Next you know, the DOL will be promoting man/camel marriages. Shish, is nothing sacred?
