I really don't give a dang if either of these guys is gay or not. And just because this so-called "magazine" said Messrs. Smith and Cooper are gay, doesn't mean they are.
I have yet to see either of them foist a gay lifestyle on anyone. And in case people don't know this -- there is such a thing as a gay conservative. Maybe not in lifestyle, but I've known a few gay people who are conservative when it comes to their support of the war and the President, the economy and a lot of other issues.
Furthermore gay conservatives have a much easier time coming out as gay to conservatives, than they do coming out as conservatives to gays. And yet they call us intolerant.
