Why did you post this with a barf alert? Why do you care whether a good priest was gay? And are you aware that your screen name is the real name of a gay Republican former congressman?
Ya I noticed that when this guy appeared. I elected not to mention that. But not that YOU mention it .... ?
Bauman was not just a Republican. Robert Bauman was an anti-gay Republican State Senator from Maryland who was arrested in 1980 for soliciting homosexual sex. He was still alive as of 1998. (Thank you, Google Search.)
True conservatives will forever hate Bauman because he reinforced the untrue stereotype that the biggest phobes are the ones desperate for hot, gay sex. Nothing could be further from the truth. (Except on the rare occasion when its true.)
