GOP Rep. Opens Wrong Door, Attends LGBT Event
UPI ^ | June 14, 2013

GOP Rep. Ralph Hall attended an LGBT event after walking through the wrong door.

Republican Congressman Ralph Hall of Texas accidentally opened the wrong door last week and wandered into a lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender event for the Victory Fund on Capitol Hill.

Hall, the oldest serving member of Congress at age 90, is a supporter of the Defense of Marriage Act, and his appearance at the reception was met with shock and confusion.

After getting some refreshments and making small talk, Hall inquired as to the whereabouts of the lawmaker whose event he thought he was attending.

It turns out he and his staff were supposed to be in another event hall. After discovering he was in the wrong place, the anti-gay conservative quickly left the premises.

"At that moment I realized that this was not the reception I intended to attend, and I put down my glass, thanked the sponsor, and told him we would be leaving," Hall said.

Following an article about the event mix-up entitled "Ralph Hall Lets His Hair Down," Hall joked, “I would just say that while I do have a good head of hair for a 90-year-old, I do not have the quantity of hair, nor the inclination, to let it down.”

Some sick pos probably sent him there as a joke. The left is full of juveniles.

I walked into the ladies’ room at the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown by mistake. Fortunately, it was March so it was empty. My first clue: no urinals.

I had been told that the ladies room had sofas, a wine and coffee bar, a TV, and other fine accomodations. I figured it was so because of how much time ladies spend in there. Much to my disappointment, it looked like any other restroom minus certain pieces of equipment.

“Anti-gay conservative” yep no bias there! I’m anti gay marriage I’m not for hating an entire group of people, instead I pray that they will see the error of their ways.

The real question is whether they’ll still respect him in the morning.
