Here is the problem. The big gay organizations have been threatening to out Souter for several years and it is more than obvious that if he IS gay he did not want to be outed. That is the problem since that is where pressure can be brought to bear. I have no problem if he is gay BUT I do have a problem with the prospect of him making decisions under the threat of being outed.

If Justice Souter is making decisions under threat that is important, but how could one possibly know if that were true?

When I asked the question, I didn't know if it was at matter of record or not. This sounds like it isn't a matter of record.

Frankly, if Justice Souter is gay, it would probably be better for him to out himself now that sodomy is no longer a crime due to a Supreme Court ruling.
