Pun intended and welcome to DU. I'm sorry but there are two independent flying balls of shit being juggled here.

1) protection of representatives with a penchant for underaged sexual relationships by the republican house leadership. Everyone involved in this scandal, gay straight or indifferent, needs to be held accountible.

2) homosexuality within the Republic Party, a political party that has used homophobia in every election cycle to appeal to its right wing bigotted base. The hypocrisy here is stunning. it needs to be discussed as often as possible.

I'm fully in favor of keeping both of these balls of shit up in the air and flying straight at the Grand Old Pervert-party as long as possible. The issue of confusing pedophelia and homosexuality is a minor point. I agree that we should note, frequently, that there is no such connection. Mary Kay Letourneau.

There is nothing wrong with being gay, there is something massively wrong with being a gay republican.
