“Outrage” is the talk of the Tribeca film festival. The documentary by filmmaker Kirby Dick claims that several politicians who vote “anti-gay” on political issues are actually gay themselves, and have had verifiable trysts with men. The documentary contains interviews with men who claim to have had sex with these “anti-gay” politicians.
Of course, many liberal media outlets are trying to keep the identities of the politicians “outed” by Outrage a secret. Some claim that sexuality (even for politicians) is a personal issue that should not be made public without consent under any circumstances. That is sheer nonsense. In the internet age, a secret can only be kept for about 5 seconds.
Below is a list of politicians that the “Outrage” film claims are gay:
Charlie Christ, Florida governor Ed Koch, former Mayor of New York David Dreier, California Congressman Larry Craig, Idaho Senator Mark Foley, Florida Congressman
Several politicians who have outed themselves publicly are also included, like James McGreevey, former New Jersey governor, and Senator Barney Frank.
I have to admit that I am persuaded by Kirby Dick that outing is actually NOT immoral or unprofessional. Journalists investigate heterosexual scandals all the time. We do not question whether revealing John Edwards’ affair to the public is acceptable for journalists. We assume that reporters have the right, nay, the DUTY, to reveal whether John Edwards is cheating on his wife. We know what Bill Clinton did with a cigar, we know what he did with Paula Jones, we know what he did pretty much every second of every night in every bed of his life. So why is it wrong if a journalist questions if Charlie Crist, Ed Koch, or Mark Foley had sex with a man? If any one of them did, frankly, the public has a right to know.
I have no idea whether any of the above are actually gay, but since when is it wrong to investigate the sex life of a public official?
See the trailer for “Outrage” below. I am betting Mr. Dick did not expect to see an ally on Right Pundits.
I think you meant to say that the outrageous movie claims they are all queers.
I think that if they can investigate to the fullest Sarah than everyone is fair game. I hope that they out every stinkin one of them quite frankly. Why should they be protected if Sarah isn’t? They put themselves out in the public so there is a risk.
Not true. 17 is the legal age of consent in DC; and all the boys in question where that age. What he did was unethical, but was nevertheless legal.
LOL, I prefer referring to them as homosexuals but used the original title from the author. But I would agree that the homosexual militants have been very shrewd in changing the language about their lifestyle to cover up their actual practices - which would horrify the average person.
the guy who wrote this got almost every state and office wrong.
“17 is the legal age of consent in DC”
I didn’t know that. I thought the age of consent was 18 everywhere in the US. Still it seems pretty sick for a man in his late 40’s (50’s?) to be sexually pursuing teenage boys. But then again, that seems par for the course in the homosexual lifstyle.
Dr. Laura Schlessinger: “How many letters have I read on the air from gay men who acknowledge that a huge portion of the male homosexual populace is predatory on young boys.”
There are gay people who don’t believe in the homosexualization of society, so there isn’t any reason that there can’t be gay Republicans or even gay conservatives.
Of course, gay conservatives are a rare breed, but they do exist.
Did they mention Tim Geithner by chance?? :-)
Gosh. I can remember when it was, “The love that dare not speak its name.”
Now, “It’s the love that can’t shut up.”
Or I think Larry Sinclair should have been interviewed for the film. It’s biased against the GOP, surprise surprise.
You mean “TURBO” Tim?
. . . what Mr. Dick sees with these gay guys.
DIdn’t Charlie just get married to a pretty HOT chick? How is he gay?
this is an OUTRAGEous lie. All but the National Enquirer covered that up until he was out of the race, then were embarrassed into printing the story next to the horoscopes. I wonder if it been mentioned yet by the Craveness Couric for one?
Charlie Crist? Is it because he’s tanned, thin, neat, and (was) single (for a long time)?
I would not take the word of the author of such a book nor would I accept his list as accurate without more proof than this.
Kirby Dick aka “Mr. Dick”. Is this satire?
Be interesting if they did the same research on federal judges, as well as the state level supreme court judges, like the ones that rule in favor of gay marriage.
