But at the end of the post, Reid linked to a list of "Famous heterosexuals who are definitely not gay…" that claimed public figures from Orlando Bloom to Britney Spears were secretly gay.In several 2006 blog posts, Reid suggested Republican Utah Senator Orrin Hatch wanted to fellate Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito. "Oh, look, Orrin Hatch is putting on his Supreme Court knee pads to save Alito…" she live-blogged during Alito's Senate hearing. "‘Golly, you're really a swell guy. Can I be on top next time…?' Jeez…""Would somebody please get Orrin Hatch some mouthwash and a $20 bill…? He's got to be exhausted…" she continued, in the post titled "Brokeback Committee Room." ...
