I think you are probably correct.
True what you said about Franks, but there was another Dim from Mass that had relations w a Page and got re-elected - Dims didn't do anything and I suspect they knew about that before it came out, too.

Gerry E. Studds
Democrat, Massachusetts (1973-1996)
The Honorable Gerry Studds, the first openly gay Member of Congress had an affair with a 17-year-old male Page in 1983. He never apologized and was censured by the House of Representatives.
Studds stayed in Congress, and was re-elected time and again by his constituents in Massachusetts.

Wasn't it just LAST YEAR that California gays were trying to get Gay Oral Sex between adults and 16/17 year old teens LEGALIZED???
Can anyone help me find a reference to this??
Ann Coulter brought up Studds yesterday. The problem is that no one expects better behavior from the Dhimmicrats, so no one listens. It doesn't have the same shock value as when a Republican does something stupid or perverted. Why? Because, in general, the Republicans do hold the moral high ground - something obtainable by only a very few Democrats.
