First Print Story on the Outing of Congressman David Dreier on the Internet

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- San Gabriel Valley Congressman David Dreier is the latest GOP member to be outed as a homosexual Republican by Mike Rogers, former development director for the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, and his blogactive.com Web site. Doug Ireland, longtime radical political journalist, media critic and self-described purveyor of "investigative opinion," defends the outing and assesses Dreier's political future in this first discussion of the outing in the print media. Already Ireland's story has caused a stir. Several radio stations have called Ireland for comment and many are debating whether Ireland should have kept the story on the Internet. "I have not the slightest doubt that the outing campaign initiated by Mike Rogers' blogactive.com and supported by Raw Story's reporting is accurate in exposing Dreier," Ireland insists. "Moreover, in the course of reporting this story, I talked to a gay member of Congress who has observed Dreier in gay behavior and is 100% sure, as this member told me, that Dreier is gay. And, clearly, Dreier's demagogic political homophobia justifies reporting the outing campaign targeting him."

I'm sorry If I destroyed your vision of me by being such a moral prude. I thought this party had some morals. And here we are defending this crap. If someone wants to live that kind of nasty life, I don't want to know about it and I'm danged sure not going to condone it.

Dreier's lifetime ACU rating is 92.

Like I said, he's a RINO. He's awful on illegal immigration, and gay marriage. ACU not withstanding (ACU is not my fave standard anyway.)

Oh good grief. Now we defend this crap in our own party? Did this party at one time have some morals or was I just misguided in thinking that?

Who was it that said the party had been hijacked by the left?

It really is despicable that this organization wants to out people who don't want to be outted.

Personally, I don't care what anyone's orientation is as long as they keep it private and legal.

If these people are actually doing this to their fellow gays then they are low down creeps who do not practice what they preach. It appears they use their knowledge of someone's private life to attempt to blackmail them into voting their way. Sounds illegal, and makes them what they usually call republicans, homophobic.

If you think amending the Constitution in 2004, for ANYthing, is even a good idea to discuss, I have lost a lot of hope for FR.

Quite he contrary. If Freepers were to universally accept the premise that we should not amend the Constitution to protect marriage from a bunch of whacky, leftist, dyke judges, then a lot of hope is lost for FR.

These judges will FORCE gay marriage on ALL the states if the constitution is not amended.

Amendments are not the problem (they are, in fact, the preferred way chosen by the founders). Bad amendments are the problem. The Fed marriage amendment is a good one.

THAT should be the issue then. I couldn't care less about his private life, so long as he chooses to keep it private.

That's why I mentioned it :o)

Do you have any proof Dreier is sleeping with a member of his staff? If so, do you have any proof that the person is incompetent and doesn't qualify for the job?

Well the free traders are praying at Bill Clinton's alters and telling me that anyone that doesn't like Clinton's trade policy is a Clintonista. Must be the libertarians, it would take the party of drug legalization to come up with something as moronic as that..

Not many would spit on an ACU rating of 92... I guess you're special like that.
