| Republican Senator Larry Craig, an equal participant in election bashing of gays and lesbians, pleaded guilty to lewd conduct in a public restroom in an attempt to solicit sex from an undercover male police officer.
Craig, an early supporter of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, has stepped down from his prominent position with the campaign, and is rethinking any attempt to run for re-election in 2008. Moreover, he is likely to be forced to resign his seat entirely by the Republican leadership in order to avoid a Mark Foley scandal all over again.
It is men like Senator Craig, Mark Foley, Ted Haggard, and all the other hypocritical hate mongers who consistently demonize men and women of the LGBT community as unequal and undeserving of balanced justice and protection under the law in order to get reelected, only to continue and be exposed as the liars that they truly are.
All of you give the good men and women of the gay and lesbian community a bad name. You stand behind your façade of conservatism and evangelical values and have the nerve to cast your judgment on the rest of America while you grapple internally with your own sexuality…shame on you! Judgment shall now be cast upon you. |
