But while running the google.com search, I did see that homosexuals tend to more immediately adhere the phrase, "pogey bait" to the very old definition of a "pogue" (homosexual boy).

You know, it's funny that you told me to...Google.com keyword and phrase: dictionary "pogey bait"
...to only turn around and do it yourself after the fact. Methinks that if you would've googled it yourself first you would've found what I found too and wouldn't have to be carrying water buckets for the Chief. He made the bed, let him lie in it.
When will people realize that the guy isn't all that he portrays himself to be?
