“My first thought as well, especially since “Rev” Wright reportedly created Man’s Country to make a safe place for prominent people to “relax” without endangering their reputations. Both Obama and Rahm have been reported to be members.”

Wright may have created it? Dang! You have any links I can read? Thanks.
MINOR CORRECTION: Apparently “Rev” Wright did create the DLC (Down Low Club) to protect certain prominent people exactly as I described above, but evidentally Man’s Country has been a gay gentlemen’s club for over 30 years. I couldn’t find who created it. Apparently Wright put the people together and some of those people were members of Man’s Country.
I found several links to the “Rev” referring to Wright as running a gay dating service (DLC) and you can look them up that way as well, though some of them look pretty skanky themselves.
The following link is from Wayne Madsen:

A very interesting but long read that explains why some Republican pols liked Obama so much and suspended their own runs for further public office. Madsen’s credentials look quite good and are given at the link.
From the link: WMR spoke to several well-placed sources in Chicago who reported that Jeremiah Wright, the pastor of Obama’s former church of 20 years, Trinity United Church of Christ (TUCC) on Chicago’s south side, ran what was essentially a matchmaking service for gay married black professional members of the church, including lawyers and businessmen, particularly those with children. The matchmaking club was called the “Down Low Club” but references to it over the phone and email simply referred to the group with the code phrase “DLC.” The ruse, according to our sources, was to make anyone who was eavesdropping on the communications believe that the references were to the Democratic Leadership Council, also known as the DLC.
