This guy is playing a dangerous game.
"Butch" Otter? Inquiring minds want to know how he got the nickname [I know he's JR Simplot's son-in-law].
I for one want to know if someone is a homosexual before I vote for them.
You said: But I suspected Mr. Potato Head was a little light in the loafers all along....:)

Didn't you see Toy Story? On Christmas morning the children were opening their gifts and Mr. Potato Head was calling out for the next present to be Mrs. Potato Head. I think he's straight. A little kinky maybe, but straight.
Do you really think an announcement is necessary? I don't.
It's neither needed nor welcome, in my nearly humble opinion.
"These are not decent people." Lynn Cheney
I stand corrected...LOL! And no, I unfortunately did not see the movie.
You have to see it. Lots of inside jokes for the adults.
yep
I understand your point and if these were private citizens I would agree. But when it comes to voting, I prefer to know exactly who I am voting for and I don't feel comfortable voting for a homosexual, regardless of party. A homosexual cannot represent my views. However, I do understand that people will disagree on the subject.
I think it's the chief of staff of a Republican congressman
Yawn.
Yes, and I understand your concern.
Really pathetic action for Ed to take to get listeners. His ratings must be in the sewer too.
You are probably correct, it is probably a staffer, which is not nearly as big a deal. Plus, it is to late to do anything about it now.
suuuuure he's not partisan. .... (/s)
Seriously if he out a democrat, democrats will make him boy scout leader.
I keep hearing this "line of thinking" but I DON'T BUY IT.So, let' see if a queer is a "conservative" or "Republican" then being a queer is OK.. right?. I would say this, the only queer that I don't mind in the Republican party is the one I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT!... the ONLY ONE!
But if we find out we have them positioned in Republican offices (i.e. Allen's, althouth officially just a "rumor)...obviously they hang around "homosexual circles" (no pun intended) to be so well known by the "community" :)... and they have no business being in Republican offices - because they should know, they might be hurting the candidate - unless... as always, they have an AGENDA... and they do, as far as I am concerned.
By the way, in term of life style, what is the difference between a Rep and a Dem homosexual? :) - to me it's simple, they are both perverts.. sorry..simple.
Great point. Are there any Democrats in the closet? Maybe there are and I am not aware of it. But is seems as though being homosexual and a Democrat is something they celebrate, which is what I expect coming from Democrats. There is no reason for a Democrat to be in the closet, so it may be that there are no Democrats for him to "out"? Just an idea.
I don't know who he has outed. I just know I don't believe much (if anything) a gay, dim, activist says whose aim is just to hurt pubbies. This close to a very important election just makes me doubt him even more.
I agree completely. I am so disappointed in Jim Inhofe and him having a open homosexual as his Chief of Staff. And I must say that there is NO WAY no one could not have known about this guy. I met him about 5 years ago and he just screamed, "flaming homosexual". I was quite surprised, of course one had always heard rumors. Anyway, I hope Inhofe does NOT run again because this will be brought up and will affect the race. I am hoping we can get another Tom Coburn to run against Inhofe if he does decide to run.
