Here is what I have written previously about this:

The closest thing to position papers or briefs I have written about this subject, and gays are here:

and here:
http://www.freedominion.ca/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=785474&highlight=#785474

And I truly believe that the Left's throwing gays under the bus for cheap ( and probably transient or nonexistent ) political gains is going to backfire on them, badly. They look mean in both the modern and archaic sense of the word.

And I will also add that I find the "outing" of any gays who are minding their own business to be extremely onerous, obnoxious, and offensive.

Harry Reid's scandal, which puts Foley into new light
 
 
If you are getting the idea that gay Republicans may be closeted Democrats, then you are beginning to understand how the Mark Foley scandal could have been a Democratic Party dirty trick. Here:

The Gay Man In Charge Of Pages - And Other Details

A pretty amazing article from Cliff Kincaid at Accuracy In Media:

Republican Gays are Closeted Dems

By Cliff Kincaid | October 12, 2006

So if the gay Republicans are not really Republicans, what are they? 8 Comments »

Read this testimony by sloop, who is a gay man. It is eloquent, painful, and powerful:

Sloop, thank you for saying what I have known for a long time. I have many gay friends...

The kosaks have just started AN OPEN SEASON ON ALL HOMOSEXUALS IN THE USA:
Kos Kidz Plan to "Out" The Whole World

Can you imagine a world with these freaks in power? Daily Kos: ‘Out’ all Republican Gays in Congress. (Hat tip: Killgore Trout.)   link: 217 comments  "This exposes what the L³eft really think about gay rights. Pretty much the same thing they think about all other rights.  If it doesn't promote their agenda then it isn't a right.

So let me get this straight (heh heh, no pun intended)... You're going to openly and actively persecute Republicans based on sexual preference, but whenever any of us on the right makes so much of a whisper of preserving traditional marriage, all of a sudden we're targeting the gay community and denying them their rights.  They love minorities as long as they are "their" minorities.

I'm consistently amazed at the Koslings. They believe that if they "out" closeted gay Republicans, it will- what? Turn people who already don't like the GOP against it? Make the Republican Party split along sexual/gender difference lines? (I refuse to use the term "sexual preference"- however GLBT individuals may differ from others, it is most certainly not a matter of "preference", any more than the color of your eyes is a "preference".) Or maybe they think that the GOP will collapse when they tell the rest of America what its leaders are "really like".
This is the same game they have repeatedly played on any group or individual they hate. Accuse them of a "crime", find them guilty of it, and demand that they disappear forever in expiation of their "sins". Give them scarlet robes and goatees, and they'd be the Spanish Inquisition. (And yes, I have seen the Monty Python skit about them- it's one of my favorites.) But the fact that they would exploit someone's difference to demean them, when they would rabidly attack anyone who criticized someone on their side of the political spectrum for possessing the same attribute, disgusts me.
More to the point, if (as they say), all these GOPers are "closeted", how would they know? I'm 48 and a lifelong bachelor- does that mean they assume I'm gay? (Drop by sometime, we'll discuss it- calmly. Assuming, that is, that said Koslings are even capable of acting calm.)

Read it, all of it, here:

La Cage aux Foley

In "A conspiracy so vast," John pointed out James Vicini's Reuters story on Adam Gadahn's indictment for treason and quoted this demented paragraph:

The sources denied the case was timed to deflect attention from the fallout over lewd computer messages sent by a former Republican congressman to young male aides, a scandal that may help Democrats seize control of Congress in November 7 election.
Mark Steyn kicks off his column today with Vicini's story and improvises on the theme:
Cut out that paragraph and have it framed. Or now that the nights are drawing in, if you're at a loose end of an evening, sew it into an attractive sampler and hang it in your parlor. In years to come, you'll spend many precious moments treasuring it as the perfect summation of the 2006 U.S. election.

"Justice Department officials denied . . . " What Reuters means by those words is that a reporter -- possibly the great Vicini himself or his colleague ("Additional reporting by Rick Cowan") -- gets the press release about this once-in-a-half-century treason thing and says to the relevant feds, "C'mon, you guys are just nailing this dude in Pakistan to distract from Mark Foley, right?"

And the Justice Department fellow no doubt replies, "Mark who?"

And Cowan (or Vicini) goes, "The ex-congressman. Teenage pages. Horny gay Republican predators. Hastert's notorious pedophile ring. You must have read about it. It's been in all the papers." And the Justice guy says, "Sorry, I've been been working the fax machine to Pakistan all week, typing up the relevant indictments in triplicate, and so forth."

Originally, only the Republican Congress was covering for Foley. But, as Vicini and Cowan see it, the conspiracy now extends to the Justice Department. We should be grateful Reuters imputed merely the "timing" of the treason indictment to the "lewd computer message" scandal, not the indictment itself. After all, why would the Bush administration have earmarked some nobody in Pakistan for a cockamamie charge of "treason" if it weren't for just such an eventuality as this? Also, notice the way the most damaging "lewd computer messages" and the toppling of Saddam Hussein both occurred in 2003: Did the neocons stage the entire Iraq war in order to set Foley up with an endless supply of fetching young Arab houseboys? As Al Jolson liked to sing, climb upon my knee, Sunni boy.

Steyn mentions that his new book -- America Alone -- was just released:
In my new book (out this week, folks: you'll find it at the back of the store past the 9/11 Conspiracy section and the Christianist Theocrat Takeover of America section and the ceiling-high display of the new Dixie Chicks six-CD box set of songs about how they're being silenced), I say that some of us looked at Sept. 11 as the sudden revelation of the tip of a vast iceberg, and I try to address the seven-eighths of that iceberg below the surface -- the globalization of radical Islam, the free-lancing of nuclear technology, the demographic weakness of Western democracies. Other folks, however, see the iceberg upside down. The huge weight of history -- the big geopolitical forces coursing through society -- the vast burden all balancing on the pinhead of the week: in this instance, Mark Foley.
Also in the back of the store with America Alone is Robert Spencer's The Truth About Muhammad. In his excellent Washington Times review of Spencer's new book, Andrew Bostom recalls the late, great Richard Grenier and his classic The Marrakesh One-Two:
Nearly 25 years ago, the late Richard Grenier wrote "The Marrakesh One-Two," a trenchant fictional account of a doomed effort to film the life of Muhammad. Grenier characterized the filmmaker's basic predicament with biting wit.

Even after reading a series of modern Muslim hagiographies, Muhammad left the impression of being "...a gamey figure for a religious leader...sort of a blend of Saint Teresa of Avila, Jane Addams of Hull House, William the Conqueror, and Casanova...Allah is merciful, but not necessarily Muhammad, I guess."

Of course such an impious, if accurate presentation, was impossible. Following a conference with the clerics of Al Azhar (the leading Sunni Islamic institution of religious education) in Cairo, Grenier's fictional filmmaker laments: "The only thing they would give me was I could have P.V. Muhammad. That is I could script shots from Muhammad's Point of View, subjective camera. I could have faces reacting and people talking to Mohammed. But Muhammad couldn't answer them because his voice would be too holy."

Today, "P.V. Muhammad" putatively "non-fiction" accounts prevail, while the authoritative biographies of Muhammad written in the mid 19th through early 20th centuries -- by scholars such as William Muir, David S. Margoliouth and Leone Caetani -- are now almost unknown to the public and chattering classes.

Finally, coincidental with Steyn's column comes Jules Crittenden's tribute to October's "tour de force in the political theater of the absurd." In his column today Mark Steyn aptly dubs October's theater of the absurd "La Cage Aux Foley."

The Left Hates Gays?

Apparently, the Left hates gays and believes that private sexual preferences belong on the front page. BlogActive, a site known for outing closeted gays in politics, now claims that Senator Larry Craig (R-ID) has engaged in homosexual activity in the bathrooms of Union Station. He'd better hope they're correct, or he will have one hell of a lawsuit on his hands. Patterico has been following this story and he notes that Craig has denied the entire BlogActive allegation:...this ghastly mudslinging really marks a new low.

Once again, the Left shows its obsession with sexuality, but it's really more than that. The Left obsesses over identity politics in all forms, and that obsession comes out in pathological terms... the obloquy and castigation seems to only come from Rogers and his ilk. I couldn't care less whether Craig is attracted to men or women; it's really none of my business, and none of Rogers' either. As long as he's not importuning minors, then it makes no difference to anyone except Craig and his family, and that's if the allegations have any basis in fact. The only bigot who should be ashamed of himself is Rogers. And if he's a libeler, he better get himself a damned good lawyer. (via Hot Air)  Posted by Captain Ed at 12:47 AM | Comments (16) | TrackBack (2)  "The army of david's on the web have been connecting the dots. They have been working on the gay outers, the page members of the 2001 class and some amazing stuff now being researched about gay porn website owners who also have a parallel life of hosting websites for congressional members outside their official goverment websites. Stay tuned, it ain't over yet."

But wait!

There's More!

Honest to God, if the Donks really want to turn the pivot-point of the Novemeber 7 elections into "all gay sex, all outing, all gay bashing, all the time, 24-7?"

Feel free... this is going to backfire worse than Lil Kim's Nukular Fizzle...

Liberal Gaybashing Continues (UPDATED)

If they keep this up, they’re going to make the Westboro Baptist “Church” look like pikers.

Mike Rogers, noted best buddy of AmericaBlog’s John Trichinosis, has decided, after having threatened for a long time to out allegedly homosexual Republicans unless they vote as he wants them to vote, to make good on his extortionist threats by alleging that Idaho’s Larry Craig is gay (go to the link for more, it’s being continuously updated).

The Daily Kossacks are, of course, elated and wholly supportive of this violation of privacy. Larry Craig isn’t a terrorist, after all, so he has no right to privacy, even when it comes to perfectly legal acts.

The Dhimmiwits at Democrap Underwear are equally thrilled and supportive.

Larry Craig, on the other hand, denies it and claims that the allegations are ridiculous. If indeed they are false, then Nazi Rogers is guilty of libel as well as extortion.

Personally, His Majesty couldn’t care less whether Craig is gay or not. I’ve always found it mildly amusing that goons and thugs like Rogers and Trichinosis are constantly carrying on like that, yet it is us conservatives who are the “homophobes.” ***UPDATE:*** LC & IB Dan Riehl has a list of some of the Democrat candidates that have been profiting handsomely from the Daily “Screw ‘Em” Kossacks and their merry band of homophobes.

[…] Yep, thanks, Mike. I had been distressed at the apathy I’d been seeing, but you seem to have cured it. And you’re the ones who claim that you’ll bring ethics and morals back to Washington when your friends take over the House and Senate?

Pingback by SLEAZY ASSAULT ON SEN. CRAIG « Texas Hold ‘Em Blogger  Patterico has the details here, with a link to the scumbag’s site.
 

Slublog states:

I’m going to vote Republican to keep people that Mike Rogers and the Daily Kos support out of office. This sort of dirty politics should not be encouraged - if the Kossacks win with tactics like these, expect to see this sort of thing over and over again in the future. If you’re a conservative thinking of sitting this election out, please don’t.

Their own worst enemies

Less than 24 hours ago, Democrats were crowing about Republican homophobia. Today? They decide to "out" a Republican senator who is (a) a father of three and grandfather of six, and (b) not even up for re-election this year:
I have done extensive research into this case, including trips to the Pacific Northwest to meet with men who have say they have physical relations with the Senator. I have also met with a man here in Washington, D.C., who says the same -- and that these incidents occurred in the bathrooms of Union Station. None of these men know each other, or knew that I was talking to others. They all reported similar personal characteristics about the Senator, which lead me to believe, beyond any doubt, that their stories are valid.
So much for the moral high ground, I guess. Just when you think that Republicans have clinched the Nobel Prize for political incompetence, the Democrats pull off the kind of cheap stunt that is guaranteed to repulse every decent citizen in America.

Who knew that when Karl Rove promised to give us an "October surprise," a left-wing gay Democrat would be his chosen delivery boy?

Please notice that I linked Captain's Quarters for that quote, rather than linking the disgusting Democratic scumbag responsible for the vicious smear. Thanks, Captain Ed, for sparing us the indignity of giving any traffic to the aforesaid scumbag.

Also sparing us the indignity: Patterico, Hot Air, Confederate Yankee, Dan Riehl, Red State , Iowa Voice, Sensible Mom, Stout Republican, La Shawn Barber, and Blue Crab Boulevard.

Attention, Democratic Party morons: Turn on the radio at 12:06 p.m. today, and listen as Rush Limbaugh does a victory dance on your thick little skulls. One gay Democrat blogger -- by singlehandedly staging this year's Wellstone memorial -- has just handed Karl Rove a half-dozen House seats, plus the Senate races in Missouri, Virginia and New Jersey.

I question the timing ...

UPDATE: The senator in question voted for S. 2611 which, from the perspective of public policy, I consider morally equivalent to homosexual encounters in the men's room at Union Station. Despite that vote, however, he didn't deserve such a cruel smear as this.

UPDATE UPDATE: Great thing about this story -- other than its beauty as an example of the atavistic tendencies of the Democratic Party -- is that it renders moot what might otherwise have been a nasty immigration cage match with Sister Toldjah.

Because this "outing" has assured a Republican victory on Nov. 7, it now no longer matters whether President Bush compared conservatives to terrorists. Bush gets a free pass, and the immigration cage match will have to be postponed until such time as there is a legitimate chance that Democrats might win an election. That might be a long time.

To the lovely Sister: Please understand that this blog wouldn't exist if Ali-Bubba did not think that immigration is a national security issue. I don't want to live in Atzlan, nor do I want to live in the global caliphate. There is no skill so important to survival as being able to distinguish between your friends and your enemies. "Conservatives For Amnesty" makes about as much sense as "Lesbian Feminists for Hamas."

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE: Just checked the ALF mailbox, and found an e-mail from Dan Riehl. I immediately replied and, with a few redactions to protect the innocent, here is what I wrote:

Dan:
A few days ago, I looked at the numbers and the trends, and concluded that the GOP was toast. The only question was, Who to blame?
But this "outing" ... is the "Wellstone memorial" of 2006. This is absolutely the stupidest thing the Democrats could have done. ...
Of all the political blunders the Democrats have committed in my lifetime ... this absolutely takes the cake. It's more stupid than Eagleton for VP in '72, is how stupid it is.
On a freaking WEDNESDAY, no less! That means the Democrats are going to get three consecutive weekdays of relentless pounding by every conservative talk-radio host in the country.
I guarantee you, Rush Limbaugh is going to open that Golden EIB Microphone at 12:06 p.m. today with a long, hearty laugh. Limbaugh will then roll out three hours of the most brutal scorn he's ever broadcast.
By next Monday, Mike Rogers will be in seclusion after getting death threats from every Democrat in America. Rogers will be to 2006 what Willie Horton was to 1988.
Republican prayers have been answered! And I hope you don't mind me CC'ing this to a few friends in the prayer circle.
-- Ali

Please excuse me, but I have to go get my freak on.

Patterico has a good roundup of links on the latest Democratic “outing” of a supposedly gay Republican: Lefty Blogger Outs Senator As Gay. This Michael Rogers guy is one of the most repellent figures on the political scene today, and we can only hope that his ugly work results in a major backlash against Democrats who benefit from it. link: 161 comments  " I'm not amused by all this at all. It goes to the heart of the unseriousness of the Democrats who think that outing politicians they don't like is justified in the pursuit of power and goes against everything the Democrats supposedly stand for."
