I'm not usually one to dance on graves...

...but I might make an exception for this guy.

What a hypocrite. He rallied against homosexuality, and yet he was on his fourth marriage. And in that delightful Alan Keyes/Phyllis Schlafly twist, one of his sons turns out to be gay. And quite content with it, it seems. (It doesn't say exactly that the son was gay, but since he was an advisor to Clinton on GLBT issues, I'm just assuming...)

eta: Duh. It does say the son is gay higher up in the article. So much for my reading comprehension skills.

Yes, the son who was Clinton's liaison to the gay community, Richard Socarides, is openly gay. And a great guy.

May I have this dance? And let's make it a polka!

It does seem like people such as Socarides or Schlafly are trying to purge something in themselves when they go after the LGBT community. Maybe they blame themselves for causing their children's sexuality and try to diminish that guit and shame by trying to "help" others...who knows?
