Ok, so I know how the sound bite "Max Baucus tried to get his girlfriend hired" sounds really good--but if you look at the facts...

a) people recommend individuals with whom they have personal relationships all the time in DC for positions

b) he never let on it was his girlfriend so as not to curry any favor for her

c) he hired an independent corporation to vet her for the job

d) she is REALLY highly qualified

That's probably true in most cases. And that's exactly why gays and lesbians should be allowed to try. Some will fail, but most will try and many will succeed at long and fulfilling marriages.

It's better to try to be good and sometimes fail, than to quit trying.
