Know anything about Ireland? The name sounds familiar, but then I'm probably thinking of Innes Ireland and Jill Ireland.
Claiming famous people are gay has been a cottage industry for gay polemicists -- but they're always careful not to out the closeted gays who are helping them in places like Washington or in the offices of Exodus, NARTH, Focus on the Family, and so on.
They like to get next to some prominent conservative (Bob Dornan, Jerry Falwell) and then come out at a strategic moment.
They like it even better when the conservative has a gay in the family -- then they'll out him/her, even if the person doesn't come out voluntarily, to force the target to choose between defending his family member or defending his stand on public morals. He either has to turn on a member of his own family (vile) or turn hypocrite (also vile), both demoralizing to conservatives. It's a political variant of the "fork" move in chess. Well-known examples: Barry Goldwater, Newt Gingrich, Dick and Lynne Cheney.
The homosexual polemicists' entire object here is intestinely and cordially inimical to conservatives: it is to cut our hearts out and show them to us on a stick.
Ireland is a shrill liberal gay activist who seeks to accuse any and all Republicans of being gay.
