sickening comment...and ignorant.
"and included pictures of her kissing another girl"
pictures please....
"What, she can't work for her tuition?"
At 40K a year for tuition, I'm guessing not. I wonder if the Point Foundation will pay for me to go to a University that charges 40K a year. They should 'cause I sure as hell can't afford it.
Once again we have to point out the distinction between the disordered desire of homosexuality and acting on those desires, Keyes himself did this in his much maligned "hedonist" statement during his campaign. The story doesn't say but see that Keyes understands this difference I would surmise she was thrown out for acting on her disordered desires.
If she needs luggage, she can always borrow her dad's carpetbag.
If she's lost now, wait til those parasites finish with her."
Exactly.
How about a little compassion here? Alan Keyes should show a little compassion, if Dick Cheney can do it Keyes can.
I don't know the dynamics here anymore than the rest of you and I certainly don't know what I would do if I had a child that stated they were gay. I just hope that I could find a way to have relationship and not shut the door to communication.
Alan Keyes, his wife and daughter need to find a way to try and work out a way to at least speak and find some common ground.
Particularly because Keyes is under some sort of delusion that he has a political career.
See # 26
I think Alan Keyes just became a little lonelier and will miss his daughter and might live to regret his decision, but then again he is a politician...one part ego, one part stubborn, one part sociopath and one part image.
She is 19.
I wonder how many conservative political and religious leaders have had their children targeted for homosexual seduction.
I'm not seeing much 'hate the sin, love the sinner' sentiment here.
In any case, had you read the article, you would have realized that she could not have been more upfront about her political leanings. She flatly describes herself as "a liberal queer." Why are you so hostile to her?
Naturally, the ultra-homophobic (and I don't use that term lightly -- he's one of the very few with a real mental disorder on this topic) waited until after his political campaign was over to throw his daughter out and trigger the inevitable publicity over the fact that she's gay.
If either of my kids did this, they would get the boot too.
Reminds me of the Time Patti Davis appeared on Donahue to tout her book and tell the world what awful parents she had. It blew up in her face when people saw her for who she was - a whiny, spoiled brat.
Ummm...no. The Cheneys pretend that their daughter's destructive behavior isn't destructive. The Keys seem to be showing strength in the face of their daughters decision. I wish them well, many parents become enablers of their children's problems rather than a steadfast example of holding to principles that lead the way to life and happiness.
