GOP Mantra: Enjoy Gay Sex But Deny It!

Oh, the crocodile tears from the Repubs. Oh, the sadness about Larry Craig being forced to resign. Oh, the “rush to judgment” rhetoric. The talk-shows have been full of tsk-tsk and tut-tut about all the good Larry Craig has done (and what is that, may I ask? Who knew Craig’s name until his footsie-in-the-crapper escapade?). Oh, the moaning that the Larry Craig case was purely and simply a hatchet job. Even Congressman Barney Frank (D-MA) has been mentioned in the same breath with Larry Craig, as in, if-Craig-why-not-Frank? context. Here’s the thing: It’s the hypocrisy, stupid. (And I will tell you why not Barney Frank. Barney Frank has never hidden the fact that he is gay. He may not have advertised it during the first years of his political life, but he NEVER hid it or denied it.) For the past twenty years Larry Craig has spoken out against homosexuality and the sin of immorality while at the same time he was trolling for gay sex in crummy sordid public bathroom stalls. In 1999, Craig said of Bill Clinton’s sexual lapses: "The American people already know that Bill Clinton is a bad boy - a naughty boy. I’m going to speak out for the citizens of my state, who in the majority think that Bill Clinton is probably even a nasty, bad, naughty boy.” Last October gay activist Mike Rogers reported that Mr. Family Values Craig had repeatedly solicited men in public bathrooms for sex and Rogers interviewed men who attested to the fact that Craig had solicited them in public restrooms. Congressman Mark Foley (R-FL) who solicited underage Congressional pages, which makes him a pedophile, was chairman of the House Caucus on Missing and Exploited Children, a group that targeted sexual predators and created guidelines for tracking them. It’s not the being gay that is the sin here. It’s the hypocrisy. And by the way, Larry Craig must have wanted to melt into a puddle and die when former Democrat governor of New Jersey James McGreevey, who resigned after disclosing he’d been having a gay affair, sent Craig a letter of support. So it’s the fact that Larry Craig and other watchdogs of holy writ who yammer about the evils of the unsaved while dipping their dicks where their religion says they dast not dip their dicks is what has destroyed Larry Craig, Mark Foley and televangelist Ted Haggard And mark my words, it is going to destroy Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC) and Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY).

Think about the perverts that 'make love' with the original Cabbage Patch Kid! Or with a Neanderthal child, take your pick. Either way it's perverted pedophilia, not homosexuality. :)

OT I just got back from a ballgame and watched the Olbermann special comment over at crooksandliars.com. Olbermann seems to understand what Bush is up to; most people on TV would have been merely confused by what Bush is doing.

I want to know what Nancy Pelosi's doing; I understand Bush well enough, having had minor narcissism problems of my own, but I don't understand the Dems, I guess because I'm not a battered spouse or the like.
