Bill Richardson coming on the show today to speak to the GLBT community about his "choice" comment

Governor Bill Richardson will be joining me today to speak to the GLBT community nationwide about his comment at the HRC/Logo forum that homosexuality is a "choice." He has explained through spokespeople earlier today, it was a mistake. He now wants to discuss it further and speak to GLBT Americans across the country and explain why he said it.

Governor Richardson will be on the show 4:25 p.m. Eastern, 1:25 Pacific. And of course, those who are not Sirius subscribers can listen online by signing up for a 3-day trial. Sirius.com

UPDATE: Richardson addressed the issue of "choice," as well as the marriage issue and his Imus "maricon" comment a while back. The NYT Caucus blog picked up on it, quoting a bit from the show. I'll hopefully have some audio clips up this weekend or on Monday.

UPDATE II: Some clips from the interview are now on the OutQ site.
