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."

>>>That said, we don't know that he is even gay. Who knows, maybe they got documents from Burkett?

Unless I didn't get the memo, you don't speak for God.

Once again (for the benfit of the visually impaired), I don't HAVE to speak for Him...He did it quite well Himself...the book is called the Bible (B-I-B-L-E...)

Clarify please. That one just went whizzin' right over my head. Guess I'm not as out of brain fart fog as I thought.
Of course, I've been up for 20 hours. That might explain it.

This is the man Dreier saw as a great governor. That is not conservatism.

This is the man who saw that Schwarzenegger would be better for California than Davis or Bustamante. Yes it is.

Only "purveyor of 'investigative opinion.'" Funny, the words sound almost like English.

In a libertarian world I wouldn't have to KNOW either way.

In a polite world, you wouldn't have to know either way, and you certainly wouldn't be called upon to comment.

As I said before, people who have to keep talking about their religion usually feel like they have some convincing to do.

You appear to fit that description.

I just meant that sometimes when I'm really tired and something pops up that interest me, I miss the window where I should have gone to sleep ......and end up staying up a lot later than I should.

Like tonight.

Two more words to share with you..."gospel" and "witnessing"...
