Every gay person I know is a Republican. It's a small number, but still....

....but you better not support things like gay adoption or gay marriage. That's all I care about.

That pretty much sums it up.

Gays need to come out of the closet and admit they love Republicans.

I, for one, would like to know everything about everybody who is gay...not that there's anything wrong with that.

So why is Barbara Mikulski, a Democrat on it?

Is this a list of gays who are not "out" yet. Or a list of Republicans who are not "out?" If so, what is Barbara Mikulski doing on the list?

I really wish that list would disappear. Not because I'm mad that someone is on it. Can't say I'm really surprised by most of them and I notice a couple missing.

But, it is absolutely no one's right to out someone before they out themselves. It disgusts me. It is a very personal decision that involves many factors and a person needs to be mentally ready for the after affects of coming out.

It's the Dims who have a problem with Gays. That's the conclusion I've come to.

With everything that has happened concerning Foley, i thought the Democrats were the "party of tolerance." The media, in my opinion, has performed a hell of a lot of gay bashing. Hypocrisy, anyone?

David Corn says..."Let's be clear about one thing: the Mark Foley scandal is not about homosexuality."

It isn't?

The case certainly does involve a good deal of hypocrisy, though. The entire Democratic stance can be distilled to this - "We get to bash gays if they're Republicans." It's that simple.

I know a gay couple that have been completely shunned by many of their gay friends when it was discovered they were Republican.

When did Mikulski become a Republican? I missed that amazing event!

My prediction is that this will backfire. It's said that Pelosi is absolutely against releasing this list and there is a very good reason for that. If there's one thing gay people hate worse than a Republican against gay marriage it's someone who outs homosexuals against their will.

The left is not only ignorant about conservatives and what drives them to vote, they are also evidently ignorant about what makes non-radical gays angry.

The moral of this story......Liberals are ignorant, PERIOD.

I think the point of the list is closeted gays.

Sen Barbara Mikulski (MD)

Anyone in DC who isn't blind as a bat knows she is a bull lesbian. It is even known that she prefers pretty skinny blonde women (I guess she likes the opposite of what she is).

What is ridiculous about this "List" is that it does not mention so many others who are homosexual (bi or otherwise). For instance, the person standing next to Sen Mikulski below.
