Sam Brownback has a pen, and he’s not afraid to use it. His executive order to remove discrimination protections for gay, lesbian and transgender state employees proves that.It’s disappointing that the governor would remove discrimination protections for ANYONE. For pundits such as Jon Stewart of the Daily Show, the disappointment was expressed with ridicule.Stewart suggested people might want to create a new name for the governor of Kansas, and it wouldn’t be a flattering name. This actually happened to presidential candidate Rick Santorum.
