Ortenzio's Big Yurt

From today's AP follow on the state GOP's decision to give the Log Cabin Republicans a seat on the party's executive committee.

"Whether it's a log cabin, a yurt, an igloo or a split-level, we've got room for every kind of housing no matter how you depict yourself in terms of your belief,'' says State Republican Party leader James Ortenzio.

He added that State Senator Serph Maltese, the anti-Log Cabin Republican voice, "turned himself in one minute from the Maltese Falcon to some form of domestic poultry."

Mr. Benson, are you any relation to the Mike Schenkler creation, Harley Benson?
By the way, I agree with Mr. Ortenzio, about the sad state of the Queens County Republican Leader, but if push comes to shove some of my relatives are still chicken flickas
