LAist: Republican Allegedly Gay Senator Was Accused of Playing with Pages over 20 years ago
"The latest Republican Senator accused of being a homosexual is the honorable gentleman from Idaho, Larry Craig. Mike Rogers of blogactive.com went on the radio yesterday to say that he is 100% certain that not only is the Senator a gay man, but one who has performed anal sex with other men. Producing solid brass balls, Rogers today even sent Sen. Craig an open letter inviting him to take a day off from lying about his lifestyle.
Apparently the Right have no problem living by the, uh, sword, by getting their socially conservative voters to the polls to block gays from being married, but wince when the gay card gets used against them.
Here at LAist we believe that everyone is entitled to their opinions. Therefore if a gay Senator wants to vote against gay rights, we have no problem with that, in fact we would listen closely to an elected official say, "look, I love dick in my mouth. I love anonymous same-sex humping. I love hairy men and young smooth boys. But I dont think that gays, lesbians, and our friends who are transgendered should be able to get hitched because..."
We'd be all ears, with a press conference that started off like that. However the righty bloggers seem to want to keep their bros in the closet, claiming that their personal sex life has nothing to do with politics and outting these gentlemen is slimy. Funny how President Clinton's private sex life wasn't/isn't treated with the same respect."
btw. the story is spreading exponentially, it had about 5 links last night on Google news, about 40 links this morning, now
