Van Zants anti-gay comments draw outrage, while Gary Chartrands got a pass,

When I wrote about the chair of the state board of education, Gary Chartrand's controversial remarks last Fall I was suspended from the Times Union's blog roll for about six weeks.

The Washington Post however agreed with my sentiment, that perhaps they were out of line.

Fast forward to this week and Van Zant's ridiculous remarks are all over the place and drawing a fair amount of face palms and outrage too.

Why did Chartrand get a pass? I mean isn't crazy homophobia crazy homophobia?
