The White House ripped CBS News on Thursday for publishing an online column by a blogger who made assertions about the sexual orientation of Solicitor General Elena Kagan, widely viewed as a leading candidate for the Supreme Court.

Ben Domenech, a former Bush administration aide and Republican Senate staffer, wrote that President Obama would "please" much of his base by picking the "first openly gay justice." An administration official, who asked not to be identified discussing personal matters, said Kagan is not a lesbian.

“White House complains about CBS News blog post saying that possible Supreme Court nominee is gay”

Is there anything wrong with that? :)

This is strange, I thought her sexual orientation was common knowledge.

Seems to me that all the people in the background are perverts of one sort or another!

Well, the laws of genetics being what they are, many mixed race people “pass” into the white population. It has been estimated that one Southerner in four has some black ancestry.

I thought I read that one of the judges already there is ‘gay’.

You thought you read? And this merits a comment?

I used to like to watch this "eccentric" professor from the British Military Academy at Sandhust discuss various issues on the History Channel.

Dr Aryeh Nusbacher

Recently, he got a sex change operation, and, becoming totally delusional, now thinks he is "Lynette Nusbacher."

http://search.intelius.com/Lynette-Nusbacher The students at Sandhurst (where Prince Harry and Prince William graduated) now call him "Mrs. Gunfire."

Further evidence that this Administration can’t deal with reality. Also further evidence that they feed us BS.

I feel like giving a prize to the first Democrat that makes an honest statement.

The White House is complaining that CBS went afoul of the longtanding MSM coalition charter and actually reported a fact!

And since they’re at most 2% of the population, just one means they’re way over-represented.

If the Repubs don’t do their damnedest to filibuster or whatever else they can do to stop or stall leftist SCOTUS nominees, they all deserve to get thrown out in their next elections.

Smoke and mirrors...why do you think HolyO SUDDENLY signed that COMMANDMENT yesterday to the hospitals that if they partake in the Medicaid/Medicare system, they MUST allow gays to visit whoever and whenever they want, despite what a hospitalized person’s family might want? I hadn’t heard anything in the news prior to that...if this alleged lesbian woman is too conservative for Soros, the gay community wouldn’t care about that, they’d just be insulted and claim her withdrawal from the ‘list’ was because of her sexual orientation, not her political viewpoints, and start ‘acting up’.

So to distract and appease them, the sudden ‘hospital visits for gays’ EO (or whatever it was he signed) bursts onto the news cycle for a few days. In the meantime the WH gets to strongarm this alleged lesbian woman into ‘voluntarily’ dropping out of consideration for SCOTUS...she’ll want to ‘spend more time with (her) family’ or somesuch silly excuse. THEN the WH gets to hit America in between the eyes with a choice so gay it makes Barney Fwank look conservative! (Or so liberal it makes DeadTed Kennedy look like a right winger!!!)

Mark my words. Smoke and mirrors.

A misparsing of this sentence from Ann Coulter. She was refering to one of the cable news anchors. While I suspect that she’s referring to Anderson Cooper, I have no clue who the Mormon or Scientologist are as I don’t have cable and haven’t had a tv in years.

While it’s true that there are no other Protestants on the court — now composed of six Catholics and two Jews, making the Supreme Court only slightly less diverse than cable news hosts, 75 percent of whom are Catholic or Jewish, but also include a Scientologist, a Mormon and a gay — it’s difficult to believe Stevens is any kind of Protestant.

This article proves how ridiculous the term “gay” is. Are we ready to retire it now?
