I googled the website for the terms "gay," "homosexual," and "homophobic," but didn't find anything.

I did find this interesting statement, however:

Date and time you access our site

My websites collect the same info. I suspect most others do as well. No conspiracy at work, at least as far as the data collection.

Almost every single web server on the internet logs that information. Free Republic certainly does as well.
