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 judgmental ones who are so damn sure they're right about everything.
The ones who believe if you don't believe exactly what they believe you're a leftie.
Would be LOL if it wasn't sadly true.
It's just that I'm not sure with most whether they are repelled by homosexuals because of religious beliefs or because their hard drive mental programming makes them that way.
Christ said "he who is without sin, let him cast the first stone." And He also said, "Mary has chosen the better part."
So, I diverge from those that claim to be fundamentalist Christians in a couple of attitudes on a couple of issues.
However, like Zell, I have hardly anything in common with Democrats.
Folks knew about Koch way back even when I lived in Manhattan in the 80s when he was the "How Am I Doing?" mayor but he never ever flaunted it at all.
Drier?....I have no idea. My wife thinks he's good looking.
I'm glad to have Koch as a voice for our side btw.
Clinton could have gotten a blow job from his dog for all I cared .. it wasn't about sex ..
It was about obstruction of justice, harassment, lying under oath and corruption
And people wonder why other people think the GOP is mean-spirited.
WARNING, WARNING.....
If certain individuals continue to get their clocked cleaned on this thread, it will disappear.
Bill Safire?...and Army of One..lol
The folks throwing out the Gay ole party talking point are being outed themselves.
NEWS FLASH!
God is programmed the SAME WAY! Read your Bible...
Nice try. But wrong.
I just don't think I live a life pious enough to judge other people's personal lives.
Unlike you.
You say people are spouting "crap" and you call ME mean-spirited...!
I'm sure there are plenty of things that are on your lists of things that need to be illegal.
I wouldn't be surprised if women having the vote was one of them.
You and I both know if Jesus Christ walked this earth today these very same people would be carping about him wearing a dress and hanging out with that bunch of guys. Jesus would be WAY too liberal for them.
Agree.
Well at least he isn't handsome, leaving a woman without a husband is so painful then.
