"In October 1964, Walter Jenkins, another senior aide in the Johnson administration, was arrested for allegedly having sex in the men's room of the Washington YMCA."

Actually, per Bill Clinton, he wasn't having sex, but going south on a young man in the YMCA bathroom. No truth the the rumors that Walter Jenkins inspired Jacques Morali to write "YMCA."

Why does it matter if he was gay or not? My nephew is gay, no big deal.

In the Washington of the early 1960s, allegations or proof of homosexuality could end a career

Only applies to Republicans now. It's a badge of honor for Dems.

I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to learn that Moyers and Hoover were cross dressing fetish buddies.

I don't know if he was gay. But I think he had along lost brother .....

Jack Valenti ........ Ted 'Baxter'

Anyway, I wish J. Edgar Hoover would have *leaked* JFK's and RFK's FBI files to someone, like the Chicago Tribune₍₁₎. That would have put an end to 'Camelot' pdq. And RFK would have had to spent his time hiding under rocks like the slimy CRIMINAL slug he was.

Which reminds me, when is Sirhan Sirhan getting paroled? All he did was allegedly shoot one guy. Normally that'd get you Manslaughter and about 10 years in CA.

(1) the Trib wasn't exactly 'Democrat Friendly' back then.

Gee, I thought Hoover knew all the queers in Washington...so why would he need Moyers’ help? Or was he just subcontracting within the (Ah-oo-gah) community?
