Anti-queer attorney James Bruner has Bush family ties

The anti-queer attorney hired this week by the Florida Department of Children and Families has ties to the Bush family. James H.K. Bruner's father was the rector at Kennebunkport, Maine's St. Ann's Episcopal Church, where Florida Gov. Jeb Bush's father, former President George H.W. Bush, is a longtime member. On Friday, a spokeswoman said Jeb Bush had no role in hiring Bruner, who will earn $82,000 annually as "special assistant to the general counsel" of DCF. Bruner has compared the battle over same-sex marriage to Armageddon, says schools are becoming tools for the "pro-homosexual agenda," and argues that medical evidence proves "the homosexual lifestyle is unhealthy and should not be supported by the state."
