Happy National Drag Anti-gay Men Out of the Closet Kicking & Screaming Day
Happy National Drag the Anti-gay Men Out of the Closet Kicking and Screaming Day...

Meet Thomas Bowman.

Thomas has a Friendster profile:



Thomas works here:






But, Thomas apparently, doesn't share all the same values as the right wingers in the White House he works for:



Oh, Thomas is gay. Works at the Bush White House.

And... I promised a visit from a previous case. I'm warning the Committee about Ed Schrock. Since he's still on the staff of Congress (the ONLY former member who is on staff) and was looking for sex with men outside of marriage during the time Foley was protected. He needs to be hauled into the committee and asked what he knew and when he knew it.


I wrote another letter:


I will be adding more take actions so visitors can help spread the message. I'll also be mailing blogACTIVE Confidential, my newsletter, a list of 5,000 people, including thousands of staffers inside the Capitol.

2. Don't blame me. I didn't do it. BlogActive / Mike Rogers did it.
I only know one closeted Republicker, and that person doesn't hold a public office.

3. Good work, Mike Rogers!
:thumbsup:

You'll like it out of the closet, Thomas. It's quite liberating.

4. This isn't going to help anything
If anything its only going to perpetuate the notion that closeted gay men should be outed from government positions or are somehow associated with pedophillia. These seem to be low-level government employers, young, barely making any money it seems, so republican or not, we shouldn't be on a witch hunt against ourselves. Besides, coming out should be a personal decision.

5. It doesn't sound like he was actually in the closet, anyway
He used his real name on his webpage where he identified himself as gay.

That makes him either "out" or stupid.

Then again, Republickers think the internet is a series of tubes.
