Interesting that the homesexual press interprets an "outing" of a closet gay as a bad thing for the administration.

What I have found odd is that many of the far-left gay activists refuse to allow gay Republicans freedom of conscience. If a person is gay, they assume - no they demand - that he support gay-marriage &c.&c. I know several gay people who are adamantly opposed to the whole agenda of the radical homosexualists. They seek to take one small part of a persona and build an entire political platform on it.

This is an interesting feature of the leftist mindset. They would meet your points with sanctimony as they "explain" that it is the hypocrisy of the right in holding positions "against" homosexuals, while at the same time having homosexual people wihtin their midst.

This "explanation" of course, is mindless and is of the smarty pants set in the worst way. [I refused to use the noble term "elite" for them]

It is precisely that these letist "outers" wish to embarrrass the right wing people who are homosexual or associated with homosexuals in a witting or unwitting manner, that exposes their fundamental bad faith. They do not even grant to homosexuals the right to have their own mind and take non-leftist positions. They seek to punish the horrible transgression of not being a leftist by causing these individuals harm which they won't inflict on left wing closeted homosexuals.

I have often felt that the left often appears to have the moral compass of your sterotypical labor union thug. The dirty tricks of the left and the democrat party always have that character. Look at how they argue on TV. That blatant attempt to talk over the right wing represenative and never concede a fact or answer a direct question. If you have ever met this spirit in your daily life, you will not forget it. It is foolish to deal with them with ordinary means.

Exactly. The similarities between how this issue echos through the political ecosystem is almost identical to how the subject of race echos through it. If you are a minority, you have to be a liberal. If you are a minority, you have to be a victim.

Yet, if you engage in stereotyping, you are a card carrying member of the VRWC.
