Flutterby™! : The party of small government striking again

Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, also GOP candidate for governor, is petitioning the Supreme Court to rehear Lawrence v. Texas so that VA can reinstate its ban on oral and anal sex:

... Cuccinelli claims he will only use the sodomy law to bring cases involving minors or sexual assault, and argues that Virginians need not worry about him prosecuting "consenting adults," because the part of the law that would enable him to do so was defanged by the Supreme Court's Lawrence decision. ...

However, he's fought to keep any such restrictions out of that law.
