Many Republicans are in denial as to how friendly Ronald Reagan was to gays personally. He had bunches of gay friends in Hollywood, according to his son, Michael, a conservative radio talk show host, and he was the first president known to host an openly gay couple (Roy Cohn & partner) as guests, sleeping together, in the upstairs residence at the White House.

I remember reading in the mainstream press about a mini-scandal over the fact that some gay Republicans were so well connected with the Reagan White House that there were private, after-hours tours of the premises for their gay guests.

Before becoming President, Reagan campaigned against the California ballot initiative which would have banned gays from teaching in California public schools.

"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone".

Since this thread is about the killing of babies and Rudy, I am not sure your comments are relevant. But thanks for the bump.
