First Print Story on the Outing of Congressman David Dreier on the Internet

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- San Gabriel Valley Congressman David Dreier is the latest GOP member to be outed as a homosexual Republican by Mike Rogers, former development director for the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, and his blogactive.com Web site. Doug Ireland, longtime radical political journalist, media critic and self-described purveyor of "investigative opinion," defends the outing and assesses Dreier's political future in this first discussion of the outing in the print media. Already Ireland's story has caused a stir. Several radio stations have called Ireland for comment and many are debating whether Ireland should have kept the story on the Internet. "I have not the slightest doubt that the outing campaign initiated by Mike Rogers' blogactive.com and supported by Raw Story's reporting is accurate in exposing Dreier," Ireland insists. "Moreover, in the course of reporting this story, I talked to a gay member of Congress who has observed Dreier in gay behavior and is 100% sure, as this member told me, that Dreier is gay. And, clearly, Dreier's demagogic political homophobia justifies reporting the outing campaign targeting him."

The whacky extreme rightwing is a small faction in GOP politics and makes no real difference in elections.

That's my point exactly. They're loud but they really don't matter; you'd never know that on threads like these though.

I don't have a dog mask! The best I can do is an orc and that's way too simian.

Plus the female pit and male shepherd would rather do each other. I'm gonna be up to me arm pits in pups...all of 'em too cute and evil to give away.

The last litter adopted adopted the old mountain lion down by the river like a grandfather. Try that for a houseguest...polite, but breakfast better be on time and substantial. And try to push him off your face at night...

The Republican Party has changed -- and obviously you don't like it. Yes, and guess what, that "change" has been to include numerous planks of the DEMOCRAT'S platform!

When you become your enemy, you lose your identity.

Rogers is mad because Drier doesn't vote for gay issues

Or was that just his "front" for keeping his kinky, sicko lifestyle secret?

Like a fire safety instructor, that happens to be a pyro.

It was "religious nuts" - abolitionist - who founded this party.

Agree with you there. But it was the Republicans belief in capitalism and free enterprise that defined the party in the 1900's versus the Democrats desire for socialism.

It will be interesting to see how the party evolves in this century and who it attracts to its coalition and who it repels.

Watching the homosexual community in California *out* this person reveals the design to simply add to their count of gays in office.

And you think this puts him in the pocket? Ridiculous.

The problem is that Dreier is a RINO who opposes a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between a man and a woman, and he also has a horrible record on illegal immigration. That's just for starters.

Well put.

Well, were the "Holy Rollers" of 25 years ago as you called them wrong to warn us where this might lead?

(since you acknowledge that we are now there....fighting back the homosexual social engineering)

LOL!

I'll never forget last Halloween, I was standing out front with some partners, they had this nasty looking gorilla mask. I tried it on and told um I was going to go in and scare the wife.

I forgot about my 110 pound, black faced German Shepard, who was in the house, I got just inside the front door and that damn dog nearly ate me before I could rip off the mask.

The wife got a big ol belly laugh out of that.

Joe .. I realize you don't like Drier for his immigration stance .. how about sticking to that and not getting into his private life

If this is true and if he was pushing a gay agenda like the left does .. I could understand an argument against him

He isn't pushing any and his private life is non of my business

Too late, day late and a dollar short...you're 10 years or less away from not having a Party called the GOP containing pro-life, pro-family, pro-American Constitutional Sovereign Representative Republicans if RINOs have their way...

They do a lot better job that the Senate, the black hole of good ideas(if they're Republican ideas anyway).

You are so right!

Perhaps you should look for another party if you don't feel you fit in the GOP anymore.

Even though he has a good ACU rating, I never did like David Dreier, or his other California buddy, Dana Rohrabacher. OTOH, Cong.Chris Cox is a good guy.
