Another GOP Anti-Gay Gay Sex Scandal!

Here's another Republican "Anti-gay" gay sex scandal! Washington state GOP Representative Richard Curtis apparently dressed in women's red stockings and a black sequined lingerie and had sex with a male escort/porn model, Cody Castagna. Curtis claims that Castagna is blackmailing him for $1,000, Castagno says that Curtis agreed to pay him $1,000 for unprotected sex acts in his hotel room in Spokane. Oh yes, Rep.

Hypocrisy and Sympathy for Larry Craig

Sgt. Dave Karsnia

As difficult as it is to have sympathy for a right-wing conservative hypocrite like Larry Craig, I have been doing a little rethinking on this incident. Craig deserves a lot of what he is getting for his hypocrisy, but let's take a closer look at this whole thing. First, why are police departments wasting time and money sending hot good looking cops like Sgt. Dave Karsnia into men's bathrooms to entrap lonely closeted men who don't pose any threat to the public? Take a look at that picture, that was a hot policeman, I would probably be tempted to at least return a wink myself. Imagine if men and women shared public restrooms and the police sent undercover cops that looked like Britney Spears in to tempt straight men? Second, as deplorable as Craig's beahavior, especially in light of his public political carrer bashing gays, there are a lot of sociological forces at work in what happened. The anti-gay homophobia that drives men like Craig to attack gay people and repress their own sexual feelilngs for example. And as far as we know, he didn't actually engage in any sexual behavior, at least not with this hot cop. HE DID NOTHING WRONG! Why all this media and public attention to this restroom stall?? And remember that a human and his family have been destroyed by this incident, even if partly his own fault. What about his wife and family? Third, What about the hypocrisy of the Republicans in Congress who forced Craig to resign, while they continue to embrace the adulterer David Vitter?? Read Glenn Greenwald's excellent analysis of that on Salon.com. And then there is the problem of Why Gay Republicans Feel Forced to Hide in Bathroom Stalls

Another Anti-Gay Homo Republican Hypocrite

Another anti-gay Homo Repulican hypocrite has been caught with his pants down. Sen. Larry Craig of Idaho Pleaded Guilty for "Lewd Conduct" in a Minneapolis airport restroom. The police report says he signaled to a undercover cop that he wanted to engage in sexual activity, and he was arrested and plead guilty in June, but now denies that he did anything inappropriate and that that the police misinterpreted his actions. Well of course, he is a "family values" Republican hypocrite who opposed gay rights:
Voted YES on constitutional ban of same-sex marriage. (Jun 2006)
* Voted NO on adding sexual orientation to definition of hate crimes. (Jun 2002)
* Voted NO on expanding hate crimes to include sexual orientation. (Jun 2000)
* Voted YES on prohibiting same-sex marriage. (Sep 1996)
* Voted NO on prohibiting job discrimination by sexual orientation. (Sep 1996)

Someone needs to defend marriage against these Republican hypocrites!
