All these 'guys' get 'married' and have children, it is cover for them.

We are still the party that opposes abortion and sodomy marriage and all the rest of the social conservative issues.

There are homosexuals who agree with us. Quite a number of them work in top circles at the GOP. Many homosexuals don't consider the sexual hobbies of single people to merit official sanction or special rights. And some, much like the queer theorists on the Left, think that sodomy marriage deprives homosexuals of all social usefulness. Getting 'married' and moving to the suburbs is a pointless and stupid kind of gay life to such people. Many of them don't like to think that they might get jobs because of affirmative action either, similar to the resentment we see with some blacks who resent people thinking they only got ahead by being black.

The right wing has always had a number of quietly 'single' people in it. Provided they are reliably conservative and don't have a sexual agenda, they've always been accepted.

The right wing really isn't as bigoted toward homosexuals as the Dims and the media would have you believe. Not that there's anything wrong with that, as the Seinfeld bunch would say.

Never in the company of women over the course of decades. Likes to hang out at that bar in D.C. where the young gay lawyers from the DOJ hang out every day after work. He was the one who picked Mehlman for RNC chair too.

She is his 2nd wife(20 years now), mother of his child and breast cancer survivor.You said "they" weren't seen with the opposite sex and were not in serious relationships. You were wrong.

You suppose having children or being married for years made Mrs. Haggerty or Mrs. McGreevey feel any better?

A lot of other singles in the Bush WH too.

I'm not the one making the claim he is gay and providing no proof, you are. You also said he was a middle aged bachelor(he's not), not seen with the opposite sex(see pic with wife) and not in a serious relationship(he's been married 20 years with a son).

I don't give a crap if he's gay and she is his beard. Just back up your claims. So far you're not doing so well.

Well, Rove let's face it... I think he is done at the presidential level. But it's intriguing what they were saying. Thanks :)

You know I don't like to be a bigot either... but I feel forced to fight for our values.

Don't push your lifestyle in my face, keep it to yourself and I can live with that.

Thanks for the info... very i-n-t-e-r-e-s..ting!... if nothing else form the point of view that the Media protects them!... It reminds of the days of JFK, when the media "decided" that it was ok to screw anything with skirts on and they would keep it quiet!... It bothers me that they try to hide things from me... for whatever reason. It's scary actually that we depend on this very biased people for our informations! Thanks for info.

Ok, so maybe Rove is not a shut case but about Ken Mehlman?

Hotair.com Video: Maher “outs” Ken Mehlman on Larry King

Not to crucify anyone... but WHY are they in such key positions?... Same thing with George Allen VA and his staff?... Who knows, the rumors might have had something with his defeat? I tell you, that bothered but still voted for him but I did send him a letter saying this would be my last vote unless the rumors stopped.

Whatever it is, I want to know the facts... It's up to me to make a decision... I don't like secrets.

How is Allen suppose to stop others from spreading rumors? One way to help stop rumors, is to stop participating in their circulation. You do know the definition of the word, right? Sounds like what you really want is for everyone to disclose to you the sexual orientation of their staffers.

Oh, and in order for me to care what Maher says on this, I'd first have to care whether or not Mehlman is gay. I don't.

Maher needs to come out of the closet before he gets outed.

"Actually our best last hope would be to have GWB resign, Cheney takes over, Condi becomes VP where she can shut the hell up, Bolton becomes Sec. State and General Honore retires from his post and becomes the Secretary of Defense.
James Baker goes away with all of his idiot 41 buddies and we kick some ass in '08!
There you go! I can go back to bed and keep dreaming now."

If you can package the above, I can sell it. It would be the greatest antidepressant known to man/woman/it kind.

I suspect that with Maher, as is the case with Keith Olbermann, there are a bunch of women who wish they were gay and would stop bothering women.

It's probably a good thing-- let someone else have a whack at it.

We need someone who will help get the party back to core conservative principles. Steele seems like a good pick.

He also went against the one group as tough as the Dems are (at least they are in politics) - the mob.
