As I understand it, the gentleman is only openly homosexual because a left-wing magazine “outed” him. It was not his doing. Other FReepers may be able to assist us with the facts of this case. I am a sinner, as are you, Mr. Thompson and the aforementioned gentleman, so who are we to judge someone, other than politically?

Indeed I am a sinner, but a repentant one. I don’t care if he was “outed” or not. If he is an actively practicing homosexual, he don’t belong on the staff of a trully conservative candidate. This is not a time for compromize - which is what has got us to a place where homosexuality and hetereosexual promiscuity have so gotten out of control. What one does in private most definitely affects there thinking and public behavior. The personnel you surround yourself with will affect your judgement. Send the fellow packing - there is no shortage of good folks to do the job. I know it is a hard stance, but that is what a leader must be willing to do. If Fred can’t take a hard stance, I don’t want he as commander in chief.
