My response, “was he finally outed as being gay?”

I hate when we do that. We want the gay Nazis to shut up but then we want to force Republicans to say they are gay.....Linda is always being begged by Conservatives to come out of the closet.....Why the hell do we want that? Are we that far gone that we want Republicans to claim they are gay?

I don't want Linda to come out of that closet. I want him to come out and admit he's a Democrat! Maybe then his ostentatiously conservative electorate would stop voting for him. Rumors of the other closet haven't hurt him.

None of us Illinois FReepers were bashing him for being gay. We are not dumb and we all knew that, he dresses metrosexual, the rumors have been going on for years.

The bigger issue is he lied about it. I think he still would have been elected had he had come out of the closet. His district was heavily Republican.

And the main issue us conservatives in Illinois had with Schock was that he was a RINO.

Well, it’s better for them to admit it than for it come out in scandalous fashion, ala Mark Foley.
