BOSTON, Massachusetts (AP) -- Former U.S. Rep. Gerry Studds, the first openly gay person elected to Congress, died early Saturday at Boston Medical Center, a hospital official said. He was 69.
Christian Kiriakos, central administrator at the hospital, said Studds died between 1 a.m. and 2 a.m. He did not have additional information, and details of Studds' death could not be immediately confirmed.
Studds, a liberal Democrat who spent more than 20 years in Congress, was censured by the House in the 1980s for having sex with a 17-year-old male page. He was re-elected for several more terms.
Last year he married his longtime partner, Dean Hara, in Boston.

Someone on Sean Hannity's show did the same thing!!!!! I looked it up on Wikipedia and it said he was still alive so I figured someone misspoke. Key up the conspiracy.
No matter what he did I send my sympathies.

The timing is very suspicious. Was his dog a Republican?

When I read the AP headlines moments ago that he "dies at 69" I thought it the gay community will demand they reword that.

What in the world does the MSM have to do with this or how people behave on this thread?

The DemocRATS will blame Bush for this death, just as they blamed Bush for Wellstone's death.

This was actually a good time for him to die.
reviving that old non-scandal can't help but raise comparisons between this dude and Foley.
That is if the MSM will actually report it.

I wonder if Fred Phelps and his gang will show up at that funeral.
