In discussing the scandal engulfing former House speaker Dennis Hastert, who is due in court this week, one thing must be made absolutely clear. What he is alleged to have done to young boys has absolutely nothing to do with being gay or gay rights.
*
Almost immediately after the news broke of Hasterts indictment, folks looked to Congress for signs of hypocrisy. Former representative Barney Frank (D-Mass.), who is gay, made an assertion during an appearance on Huffington Post Live last Monday that was flat-out inappropriate.
Dennis Hastert twice as speaker tried to get the house to pass a constitutional amendment that would have banned same-sex marriage [and], in fact, retroactively would have canceled marriages that happened in Massachusetts, he said. So when someone who himself has engaged in same-sex activity then uses his position of great power to try to penalize other people who are doing that, thats the kind of hypocrisy that should be penalized.

I don’t usually quote Andrew Dic Clay, but is appropriate here.
If you have a **ck in your mouth, and you are a dude...you are gay.
The editorial says that Hastert took some boys on an Explorers outing. Isn't Explorers Club affiliated with scouting?
So, hastert paying someone $3million to cover up his faggotry is OK?
Faggotry he did while their teacher and coach?
In many minds, that is never acceptable.
Not only that, but Obama tells us that ISIS is not Islamic.
How anybody could possibly think otherwise is a total mystery to me.

I certainly offer no defense for DH but having Barney Frank comment on it was absurd and ridiculous. I mentioned the same thing you did to a friend.
Homosexual molestation of young boys is vile and imprints these young people forever. Regardless of “public opinion polls” the support gay marriage or media celebration of gays, it is the real and sick inherent reality of homosexual behavior. Americans have to face reality. Either protect children or celebrate gays. can’t do both.
Bullshi*
He did not go after a girl, he went after a boy. He is a sick queer who spent millions to cover it up. Its no wonder the dems were able to blackmail him into such a useless leader.
I hear this BS all the time that “child sexual abuse has nothing to do with gays” - especially homosexuals denying this problem within the Catholic Church - even though >90% of child abuse cases are man-boy.
The real hypocrisy is the liberal press giving this more coverage than Juanita Broderick got.
Barney Frank didn’t have to disclose his “payment” of flesh, did he?
Together with pseudo scientific global warm alarmism, that carries the unmistakable message that the more people, the worse off is the earth, so perv away and be happy.
They were teenage boys. Hastert was sexually attracted to them and he sodomized them, therefore Hastert is a faggot. It's not rocket science.
The word "pedophile" is misused all the time. These weren't pre-pubescent little children, they were young men. He's a faggot rapist.
Or adulterer
One of the many former disgusting sumbitches in our gubmint.
“They don’t have boundaries. They just don’t.”
And the boundaries, once erased, have proven to be most accursedly difficult to re-establish. It is analogous to the overrunning to the boundary between Mexico and the territory once known as “the United States of America”.
Consider the furor raised over the Duggar family and recent revelations that the eldest son may have had intense sexual curiosity. Was he a predator? Hell, he was an adolescent, and intense sexual curiosity is a powerful motivator for adolescents, especially when sternly forbidden. Did the Duggars handle it right? There is no one authority for dealing with the situation, and strategy has to be made up on the spot to mitigate or stop the behavior.
Much of the condemnation has come from “experts” who think they OWN the “right way” to handle the explosive events that went on, and some of those “experts” have been miserably poor in dealing with ANY kind of misbehavior.
Boundaries were established long ago for a reason. That the boundaries fail, is not an excuse to not even attempt to re-establish them. The task may be long, and difficult, and subject to severe setbacks, but must still be done, even in what appear to be hopeless circumstances.
But Bill Clinton’s decades of being a sexual predator...including multiple...multiple allegations of rape from the times he was in college straight through the Presidency, and Hillary absolutely covering up the same...and then the two of them talking about a Republican War on Women is not hypocrisy?
It is hypocrisy...but it is also far worse than hypocrisy.
They are both criminals who should be rotting in jail.
EXACTLY. Gay rights groups have gotten away from their members being tarred by sexual abuse scandals because every time some middle aged homo goes after 16 year old teens, they and the media report as a "pedophile" who is raping "little boys".
Willing teenagers and innocent toddlers are two entirely different kinds of sex scandals. Most of the so-called "pedophile priests" had zero interest in children as well, and were flaming homos who entered the Catholic priesthood with the intent of finding suitable male partners. But the liberal media will never report the truth because it would make the gaystapo look bad.
The age break is from memory, it may be 15/16 not 14/15.
—”What he is alleged to have done to young boys has absolutely nothing to do with being gay or gay rights.”
OMG! Pathetic.
That’s like saying a man raping a woman has nothing to do with heterosexual sex. Nothing at all.
