GOP and gaybaiting
A recurring feature of Mr. Rove's political campaigns throughout his career has been the questioning of an "opponent's sexual orientation."

-- Frank Rich at the NYTimes

It's very hard for me to believe that a party led by limp, myopic chickenhawks and closet cases is getting away with this, but they are. And they have for a long time. We are fools if we let it continue.

-- Digby at Hullabaloo

The GOP has plenty of gays in its closet, too (including some who have been spending a lot of time on the boob tube lately). But that never stops the party of Lincoln from bashing the God-cursed Sodomites whenever it suits its purpose.

-- Billmon

1. So true...
It's so true....so sad....the GOP is filled with these gay hypocrites. I'm often slammed on my blog (www.blogactive.com) for reporting only on GOPers. But it's just not true...there was ONE gay Dem that was doing anti gay stuff from the closet and I reported on him.

The fact that there are so many more of these losers in the GOP says a lot more about the GOP than it does about gay activists.

If you know of ANY closeted gays working against the communuty, please send tips to tips@blogactive.com. Tips are 100% confidential, just ask Ed Schrock!

2. Forgot about the gay Canadian journalist that they outed.
Bet this could be used in court against Rove to show a patter of outing.
