Chief Financial Officer of Republican National Committee admits he’s gay, stays quiet
Filed under:



By John Byrne | Raw Story Editor

Jay Banning, the Chief Financial Officer and Director of Administration for the Republican National Committee since Ronald Reagan’s presidency in 1983 acknowledged that he was gay during a telephone conversation Saturday.

Banning was first suggested to be gay by activist Mike Rogers, whose outing campaign has already targeted two gay congressmen who have voted against measures allowing gay couples to marry and adopt children.

Banning, as CFO and Director of Administration for the GOP, is responsible for all accounting systems, the administration of party headquarters, GOP security, personnel, information services, graphic services and executive secretariat services.

Asked if he was out at work, Banning said, “uh, we don’t discuss it.” He added that he didn’t feel that he was at risk of being fired for being gay.

2. Oh he won't be "FIRED"...
but I am sure he will be turning in his resignation soon enough, after no outside pressure has been applied to make him do just that :eyes:

5. After 20 demi-closeted years?
I don't know the specifics of the RNC, obviously, but I do know how organizations work. If this guy has been doing the same job for two decades, gay or not, there will be many people working to make sure he doesn't get fired. You know, as long as he stays a good little darkie, of course; though it doesn't sound like he has too much trouble on that front.

10. Well, I think he should be fired.
It's sad to say but he wants to support a group of brainless barbarians who'd make it legal for suspected homosexuals to be executed by any means necessary.

I have no pity for that person.
