同性恋者母亲网帖心路历程吁支持同性恋孩子最后发表： choz 回复内容：　　前不久，记者还参加了一场同性恋者亲友会活动，看到他们中有企业家、公务员、钢琴师、编辑、记者等等。有男有女，济济一堂，显得十分开朗。　　对于被冠上莫须有的滥交罪名，同性恋者阿强说：“很多人认为同性恋伴侣不稳定，其实这是个误解。在我的周围，很多同性恋人稳定地生活在一起。刚刚我朋友就跟他同性恋人在我们小区买了房子。”同性恋者小周则激动地说：“很多异性恋的人也滥交，包二奶、四奶，甚至十奶的。” 　　吴幼坚认为，对于同性恋者来说，没有家人认同就谈不上社会认同。一些父母会觉得，支持孩子是同性恋可能令他们最终真正成为同性恋人，有些父母会寄望于孩子自己“转”过来。其实对于同性恋者来说，至亲的人都不能理解自己，内心是压抑和痛苦的，生活质量也会大打折扣。所以父母要尝试去理解孩子，与其关心同性恋是否是病，不如关于孩子生活是否过得好。　　勿按自己理想安排孩子　　很多父母无法接受孩子是同性恋这个事实除了面子以外，还有一个重要原因是以爱为名给孩子安排好了一切，希望孩子按照自己的设想去生活。　　吴幼坚说，一些家长把孩子当做自己的延续，并且作为自己过往遗憾的弥补。譬如说自己小时候因为没有好好读书，现在就要求孩子要认真读书；小时候自己没有条件学钢琴，现在无论家庭经济条件怎么样都要送孩子去学钢琴……这样的例子数不胜数，表面上是出于对孩子的爱，为了孩子好，但是有些家长其实是自私的，他们只是在尝试用孩子来弥补自己的心理空缺，希望孩子按照自己安排好的一切去发展。一些家长有意无意地把孩子视作自己的私产，自己包办一切，还认定自己是替子女幸福着想，却不明白子女也是独立的个体，应该由自己去选择自己的人生。很多家长不了解子女内心真实的渴求，伤害了子女也不知道。　　对于父母来说，最开心的莫过于看到自己的孩子结婚生子，家族得以延续。所以有些同性恋者的父母为了所谓的灯火延续，会做出极其荒谬的事情。吴幼坚在文集里面提到，一位同性恋者的前妻，去登记的时候并不知道丈夫是同性恋者，而后来她才知道家公家婆竟然对自己丈夫说：“只要你娶妻，生下孩子，你喜欢找男人都无所谓。”结果不仅伤害了妻子及其父母，也必将会伤害自己的孩子。　　很多家长依然相信同性恋孩子能转为“正常”，然后希望孩子像其他人一样，适龄就结婚生子。这是父母不接受孩子是同性恋的关键所在。但如果父母能多给孩子一点空间，尊重孩子，包括他们的生活方式和性倾向等。或许会发现，其实同性恋并不是那么难接受的事情。如果真的爱自己的孩子，应该多尊重他们的选择，而不是把孩子当做自己的私产，包办一切，异性恋同性恋皆如此。　　同性恋者谈　　如何向家人“出柜” 　　出生于上世纪70年代的阿强是“出柜”的力挺者，但他并不赞同有些十几岁的年轻人把“出柜”当做“勇敢”来炫耀，甚至作为对抗的砝码，和父母吵架时，突然扔出一句：“告诉你们我是个gay，你们能把我怎么样？！”父母在没有任何准备、甚至没有同性恋的知识的情况下猛然得知，对他们的冲击和带来的痛苦可想而知，这样做是不负责任的。而且十几岁的年轻人没有经济能力，一旦父母断绝经济来源，他们也会陷入到很大的被动中。　　阿强认为，“出柜”最好有一个清晰的目标和长期的规划，一定要把握住时机。当自己具有一定的经济来源，人格和内心都比较独立时，父母会把你当做有主见、独立意志、成熟的人看待，会削弱对你对自身生活掌控能力的担忧，增加对你的信任感，这时，“出柜”的时机也就成熟了。　　阿强说，父母那一代人对同性恋不理解是很正常的，“出柜”对他们的打击也会很大。作为负责的儿女，应该理解父母的知识面，在沟通前花充足的时间，对父母可能产生的顾虑和问题都进行梳理和解答；沟通时，要坦诚，耐心。以他自己为例，在向父亲“出柜”前，列出所有父亲可能问到的问题，并一一想清楚、解答好，再去面对父亲。　　“出柜”分为很多个层次，可以先从身边要好的同学、朋友开始“小出柜”，同龄人观念开放容易接受；逐步扩展到兄弟姐妹，在家庭中获得同盟军，一旦与父母就此事发生严重冲突时，也有个缓冲区；最后再向父母坦白。(陈辉、张莉、黄铨) 快速回复	choz 26-9-2010	11756	choz 26-9-2010 02:51

发恐同言论北京奥运会游泳三金得主、澳女选手莱斯被捷豹汽车终止广告合约最后发表： choz 回复内容： 9月6日，捷豹（Jaguar）汽车品牌的澳大利亚总经理宣布终止与知名女子游泳运动员、曾获北京奥运会三块金牌的斯泰芬妮-莱斯（Stephanie Rice）的所有广告赞助合约，因为莱斯公开在网上发表了歧视同性恋者的恐同侮辱性言语。　　事情起源于莱斯上周六在微博网站上发出的一条信息，当时澳大利亚橄榄球队刚在一次比赛中险胜南非队，莱斯因此在其Twitter网页中发出了一条表达兴奋心情的评语，其中一句“Suck on that faggots”被认为明显包含侮辱、歧视同性恋者的意味。　　莱斯的这一言辞很快引发一片谴责声浪，公开为同性恋者的澳大利亚前橄榄球知名运动员伊恩-罗伯茨（Ian Roberts）批评认为，莱斯本人以及任何支持其言论的人都“愚蠢之极”。莱斯已在批评声中删除那条微博，并已公开表示道歉。　　现年22岁的莱斯曾获2008年北京奥运会女子200米混合泳、女子400米混合泳和女子4 X200米自由泳接力等三个项目的金牌，并曾多次在其它世界大赛上取得好名次，她也是目前女子400米混合泳个人世界纪录保持者。莱斯曾与捷豹汽车签下广告赞助合约，从2010年开始，莱斯是捷豹在澳大利亚的品牌形象代言人。　　在莱斯发出恐同歧视性的言辞后，本周一，捷豹汽车驻澳大利亚的总经理凯文-戈特宣布公司终止与莱斯的所有合约关系。捷豹汽车的发言人周二对媒体表示，捷豹公司不希望看到自己的品牌与莱斯的网上言论相联系。莱斯与捷豹的合约细节未对外公开，但莱斯常在外出时驾驶捷豹提供的价值近十万美元的XF豪华跑车却不是秘密。　　尽管莱斯因一条网上微博信息受到各方批评，但也曾获北京奥运会金牌、公开为同性恋者的澳大利亚跳水运动员马修-米切姆评论说，莱斯的网上言语令人反感，也表现出没有头脑，但作为莱斯的朋友，马修认为，莱斯并不是恐同者，她的言语也不是出于恶意，她已为自己在激动状态下的鲁莽做法表示了道歉。（文稿版权所有，转载请注明出处“爱白网”）　　登录/注册后可看大图　　莱斯从2010年起是捷豹汽车在澳大利亚的品牌代言人。　　登录/注册后可看大图　　斯泰芬妮-莱斯快速回复	choz 9-9-2010	01889	choz 9-9-2010 03:14

同性伴侣的孩子学业表现不比其他孩子差最后发表： choz 回复内容：　“在几乎所有关于同性婚姻的讨论、争议或司法诉讼中，话题焦点总会在某个时候转向家庭的价值观，同性恋伴侣能成为好的家长吗？他们的孩子——无论是通过领养、通过人工辅助方式或是通过以前的恋爱关系所得到——能否在传统家庭形式占优势地位的世界里适应、发展和成功？　　这一问题的答案通常取决于由谁来回答，也通常被罩上了主观想象，被抹上了偏见。但是，斯坦福大学的社会学者迈克尔-罗森菲尔德（Michael Rosenfeld）为有关讨论带来了新的东西：从美国最大的数据库——全美人口普查的数据中发掘得到的事实”。　　以上是美国斯坦福大学8月30日发布的一则消息的开头一段话。消息说，罗森菲尔德的研究报告已发表在本月的《人口统计学》（Demography）杂志上，报告结论认为，由同性恋配偶抚养的孩子在学业上的表现与由异性婚姻配偶抚养的孩子相比，两者几乎一样。　　罗森菲尔德挖掘整理了2000年的美国人口普查数据，并专门注意了各种类型家庭里的孩子在小学或中学时有过的留级情况。该研究发现，在异性婚姻配偶家庭的孩子中，有将近7%曾留级过一次；在自述为同性伴侣关系的家长抚养的孩子中，这一留级比例为9.5%。　　虽然在表面上这两个比例有一定差距，但把家长的教育程度和经济状况等因素考虑进来之后，两个比例的差距明显消失，因为这些异性配偶在整体上比同性配偶有更高的教育程度和更好的经济条件。　　据罗森菲尔德介绍，人口普查数据显示，家长是同性伴侣这一情况本身，完全不成为孩子处于学业劣势的原因，而家长的收入和教育程度才是对孩子学业成绩的最大影响因素。　　斯坦福大学在消息中说，由于同性恋伴侣组成的家庭的数量只占美国家庭总数的很少一部分，研究者们一直难以准确的定量分析这部分家庭抚养的孩子的学业表现，而同性婚姻反对者们总是批评以往相关研究所基于的样本数据量太小。就此问题，罗森菲尔德说：“样本数据量就是力量，人口普查数据是可获得的最大样本。这一研究是基于成千成万计的孩子的数据”。　　罗森菲尔德的研究还发现，不论是同性恋配偶还是异性恋配偶抚养的孩子，留级率都比异性未婚伴侣以及单亲家长抚养的孩子要低；在任何一种形式的某种家庭中成长的孩子，也比在无家庭的集体居住环境中的孩子有明显更低的留级率。罗森菲尔德认为，数据表明任何形式的家庭收养孩子，都比孩子无人领养的情况更好。　　虽然罗森菲尔德的研究在本月才公开发表，他的研究数据和结论已被加州八号提案反对方的律师们在法庭上作为证据引用。快速回复	choz 4-9-2010	01706	choz 4-9-2010 02:06
The acquisition of New Netherland promised 最后发表： travelworld6 回复内容： The acquisition of New Netherland promised IQ LENAPE COUNTRY AND NEW AMSTERDAM TO lt>t>/\| Company by inviting all the towns to send delegates (o provincial meetings hut it didn't work. Connecticut governor John reebok Winthrop Jr. meanwhile opened a campaign to bring the English towns on Long Island and Wcstchcstcr under the authority of his govern¬ment. Connecticut agents stirred up support for the idea; in Gravcscnd. where they causcd "a greatc Hubbub and furic," it was rumored that armed parties were planning to put both "English & Dutch to fyre & to Sword." With the entire island in an uproar, the reebok easytone English towns rejected Winthrop's meddling and banded together in a combination with an adventurer named John Scott as their president. Scott tried to forcc the Dutch towns into the combination as well, assisted by none other than Captain John Underhill, lately returned to Flushing. Justifiably alarmed, jimmy choo shoes the West India Company ordered Stuyvcsant to hold the line. But in February of 1664, with the situation completely out of hand, Stuyvesant arranged a one-year trucc with Scott. The alternative, he explained, was "an inevitable surprise and capture of all the Dutch villages on Ix>ng Island." As New Netherland disintegrated, York and his friends closed in. Ousting the Dutch from North America, they reasoned, would make Britain master of the whole eastern seaboard www.mycasualzone.com/ from Maine to Cape Fear, linking settlements of the Chesapeake and reebok zigtech New England and clearing the way for more effective enforcement of the Navigation Acts. By virtue of New Amsterdam's position at jimmy choo the southern end of the I Iudson- Champlain corridor to Montreal, its conquest would also give Britain an invaluable base of operations against the French in Canada and their Indian allies. This would mean not only enhanced security for the frontier of New England but a stronger grip on the fur trade as well. Furthermore, manolo blahnik shoes as the manolo blahnik West zigtech India Company too had known, the plantation economies of the West Indies needed an entrepot on the mainland from which they could obtain slaves and food in exchange for raw sugar and molasses. Because it was the only city of any size between Boston and Havana, New Amsterdam was the obvious choice: to wrest it from the Dutch West India Company would be an act of mercantile acumen, not to mention the highest patriotism. The acquisition of New Netherland promised to improve the duke's own finances too. According to his personal Commission of Revenue, possession of the colony could bring him between ten and thirty thousand pounds a year in rents and customs duties. (On the Amsterdam exchange in 1664, Stuyvesant's annual reebok easy tone salary of three thousand guilders was the equivalent of just three hundred pounds.) Finally, as many people sus¬pected but few knew for skechers shape ups certain, the duke was about to abandon Anglicanism for Roman Catholicism.

heir visions of the rewards 最后发表： travelworld6 回复内容： heir visions of the rewards give his country twenty-five years of jolly sexual intrigue, extravagant private entertainments, and baroque scandals. When Parliament refused him enough money to pay for it all, he accepted secret bribes from I.ouis XIV of France. The Restoration didn't derail England's pursuit of the Dutch, however, for even royalists now believed that the proper business of the state was business. Within months of Charles II's accession, Parliament adopted a second Navigation Act reiterating Britain's intention to drive the Dutch out of the American colonial trade. The new mea¬sure stipulated that the most valuable colonial products—sugar, tobacco, and indigo- could be shipped only to England in manolo blahnik shoes English ships, while all manolo blahnik goods imported into British colonies from elsewhere were required to pass first jimmy choo through English ports. Concurrent¬ly, www.aobamablog.com/ Charles II created a new body, the Lords of Trade, to supervise relations between the colonies and the mother country.

Their diverse activities included the organization of several reebok zig firms to spearhead the British assault on Dutch commercial supremacy. One, the Royal Fishery' Company, undertook to break Dutch control over the lucrative Baltic fishing industry. Two others, the Morocco Company and the Company of Royal Adven¬turers Trading to Africa (later reorganized as the Royal African Company), both led by the duke, aimed to smash the Dutch West India Company's domination of the slave trade and to monopolize the importation of slave labor into the British colonies of the reebok Caribbean and North America.

Van Werckhoven himself died shortly thereafter, but the project went ahead under the lead¬ership of Jacques Cortelyou, Nicasius de Sille, and others, who received an official char¬ter from Stuyvesant in 1657.1 By the terms of the charter, twenty initial settlers would each receive fifty acres, divided between small house lots in a central village and elongated out-lots behind it. www.51flyblog.com/ Despite repeated warnings, though, many grantees failed to build on or enclose their land, and three years later Nieuw Utrecht consisted of only eleven houses and one barn.

But Nieuw Utrecht wasn't going to be built in a day. A year later Stuyvesant learned that it was still torn by "controversies, misdeeds, and difficulties" and that new measures were needed "to stimulate the people to build dwelling houses, a block house and public pound, and to dig wells for the benefit of the community."

Departure of the Federal City meant 最后发表： travelworld6 回复内容： Departure of the Federal City meant When still a Dutch town, tiny manolo blahnik shoes New Amsterdam was as peripheral to the continent as it was to the planet, and it affected relatively few people beyond the Indians with whom it traded or warred. When integrated into England's empire, its impact jimmy choo shoes grew as it drew an expanding hinterland into widening networks of regional and international commerce. New York became the political capital of the new nation after the Revolution but soon lost that status, in part because southern zigtech gentry were leery of leaving affairs of state in the ambit of northern merchants.

Rut once again mere facts are beside the point. The story, like all good myths, has easily resisted such assaults because it ratifies the popular conviction that deal driving and sharp practice and moncymaking and real estate lie somewhere near the core of New York's genetic material. The twenty-four-dollar story is also mythically akin to Aztec and Roman fables in bestowing on New York a fundamental legitimacy. It www.unclesamblog.com/ proclaims a city whose acquisition was based not on conquest but on contract. As another local historian put it in 1898: "It was an jimmy choo shoes honest, honorable transaction worthily inaugurating the trade and traffic of America's mercantile and financial capital; satisfying the instincts of justice and equali¬ty in the savage breast." Here, quite apart from the underlying implication that hbtory didn't begin until the Europeans arrived, the myth glosses over uncomfortable realities. It is true and important that in North America the Dutch preferred purchase to pillage.

Their presence didn't, zigtech in the long run, augur well for the company's ability to preserve New Netherland as a Dutch colony. Most serious were the mounting numbers of English dissidents seeking refuge in New Netherland from the Puritan regime of Massachusetts. In 1639 Kieft ordered all Englishmen in the colony to swear an oath of allcgiance to the States-General.

For reasons that aren't clear, and over the objections of powerful men like Kil- iacn van Rensselaer, Kieft dealt more leniently with subsequent arrivals. In 1642 he allowed the Rev. Francis Doughty and his followers, fugitives from Plymouth, to settle a thirteen-thousand-acre tract at Mespat (Newtown). That same year he also permitted the Rev.

美国共和党前主席肯-梅尔曼大胆出柜最后发表： choz 回复内容：登录/注册后可看大图肯-梅尔曼（Ken Mehlman） 8月25日，美国共和党全国委员会的前主席、2004年时的布什总统竞选班子主管肯-梅尔曼（Ken Mehlman）通过媒体对外界公开了自己是同性恋者，成为迄今为止公开同性恋倾向的最显赫的共和党政界人士之一。梅尔曼一直未婚，他在接受《大西洋》杂志采访时说，他用了43年时间才最终接受自己的同性恋倾向。过去曾否认自己是同性恋者的梅尔曼表示，如今他是一家私营公司的合伙人，也在为支持同性婚姻合法的团体“美国平等权利基金会”效力，担任该团体的战略顾问并协助其筹集资金。梅尔曼说，他已在过去几个月里向家人、朋友和同事们表明了自己是同性恋者。梅尔曼在访谈中提到，他担任共和党的领导人时，面对本党的反同性恋政策而心存不安，对自己过去在政治生涯中的这种无能为力深感懊悔，但也为现在对外公开自己而觉得如释重负。梅尔曼在担任共和党领导人期间，曾在私下里表示他支持同性恋者平等权利，反对排斥同性婚姻的修宪计划。梅尔曼活跃在政坛的时期，也正值前总统小布什以及共和党大力推动禁止同性婚姻的修宪、并利用这一议题作为竞选拉票战略的时候。梅尔曼表示，如今他要成为一位支持同性恋者平等权利的共和党人。与梅尔曼的情况不同，另一位共和党人、曾是新闻人物的加州议会参议员罗伊-阿什伯恩（Roy Ashburn）虽然也公开了自己是同性恋者，但阿什伯恩的公开经历颇为被动甚至尴尬。本周在加州参议院就一项同性恋者相关法案进行的投票中，阿什伯恩不仅对这项有利于消除对同性恋者歧视的法案投了赞成票，还是该法案的发起人。 8月23日，加州参议院以36票赞成、0票反对的结果通过法案AB2199.根据这一法案，将同性恋划分为“变态”、并要求州卫生部对同性恋的成因和“可能的治疗方法”进行研究的一部法律将被废除，该法律至今已沿用60年。阿什伯恩是法案AB2199的提出者。今年3月，阿什伯恩曾在光顾同性恋酒吧后因醉酒驾车被捕，随后又在媒体关注下公开自己是同性恋者。过去曾一直投票反对同性恋者权利的阿什伯恩在公开性倾向后，他的投票立场也已发生变化，不再完全站在他自己群体争取平等权利的对立面。快速回复	choz 30-8-2010	02630	choz 30-8-2010 03:25

fafafafafafa 最后发表： choz 回复内容： Here's a list of 10 conservative anti-gay activists who turned out to be gay themselves. 1. Troy King 登录/注册后可看大图 This top entry, Alabama Attorney General Troy King, plays itself out in beautiful symmetry. Knownfor his vocal opposition to gay rights and for his attempt to outlawsex toys, King was caught by his wife while having sex with a localhomecoming King (see what we did there?) from--wait for it--TroyUniversity. Someone get the mascot over here and have it do a little dance. 2. Jim West 登录/注册后可看大图 SpokaneMayor Jim West has worked really hard to debilitate gay rights in hiscommunity. He supported a bill to ban gays and lesbians from working inschools, daycare centers, and some state agencies, as well as a billthat bars the state from distributing pamphlets informing people how toprotect themselves from HIV/AIDS. He's proposed that "any touching of the sexual or other intimate parts of a person" among teens be considered a criminal act. However,for 25 years, West was having sexual relationships with boys and youngmen from his community and was, before he was caught, frequenting thevery incognito website--just to show you his ninja skills--gay.com Allunder the covers, of course. He even offered to find boys he'd"befriended" jobs with the city of Spokane in exchange for sex. Some handcuffs, please. And no, not that kind. 3. Richard Curtis 登录/注册后可看大图 ThisWashington State Representative has an anti-gay rights votingrecord--he voted against domestic partnerships for gays and opposed abill prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation. Ohreally now? Well, it wasn't before long that Mr. Mega-Compensationresigned from the House due to reports of his sexual encounter with amale escort being made, you know, "public" and all. The reputedmale prostitute, Cody Castagna, with whom he was cavorting, told policethat Curtis offered him $1,000 to have sex with him and that Curtispurchased two gay pornographic films from the hotel for them to watchin his room. Even more, this all went down with Curtis wearing ared negligee and Castagna has pictures to prove it. Pictures he onlytook as revenge when it was discovered that Curtis only had $200 in hiswallet. That's something to smile about. For us. 4. Bruce Barclay 登录/注册后可看大图 BruceBarclay, the Republican commissioner of Cumberland County,Pennsylvania, is practically the gay porn star of politics. Due to anallegation of rape by 20-year-old male Marshall McCurdy, policeobtained a warrant to search Barclay's home on March 31st. They didn't find evidence of rape. Instead,they found videotapes of hundreds of sexual encounters with men thatBarclay filmed on high-tech surveillance cameras. It was apparent thatBarclay and McCurdy had consensual sex. It was also apparent that his personal Republican stance was not as right-wing as he'd led people to believe. 5. Roy Ashburn 登录/注册后可看大图 OnMarch 3, 2010, this conservative California State Senator, who alwaysvotes against any gay-rights bills, should have just stayed in for thenight. But then again, if he did, he wouldn't have accidentally outted himself in such a grand way. As the story goes, after leaving a gay bar with an unidentified man, Roy Ashburn was arrested for DUI. Despitehis classy reveal, the point is this: he left a gay bar with anunidentified man. Since then, Ashburn has admitted that he's gay toKERN radio host Inga Barks, but that his voting record reflects his"responsibility to [his] constituents". Kinda feels like he has a whole new demographic of constituents now that could use a liiiittle more help. 6. Larry Craig 登录/注册后可看大图 FormerIdaho Republican, Larry Craig, who served 18 years in the U.S. Senate,supported the Federal Marriage Amendment which banned marriage rightsto same-sex couples and has a 0 rating from the Human Rights Campaigngroup. His rating for lewd conduct, however, was raging highwhen he was arrested at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airporton June 11, 2007 for cottaging an undercover police officer. A male undercover police officer. Can the HRC give out negative ratings? Please? 7. Ed Schrock 登录/注册后可看大图 EdSchrock vehemently opposed gay-rights issues during his two terms inCongress. From same-sex marriage to allowing gays in the military, hewas 100% against anything gay happening anywhere on, or near, the grid. Meanwhile,off the grid: August 30, 2004, Ed Schrock dropped out of the race forhis third term in Congress after being caught on tape soliciting sexfrom a gay prostitute. Don't know why it was so incriminating hedidn't even run, he could have just said what the next guy did when hegot caught for the same thing... 8. Robert Allen 登录/注册后可看大图 Thetruth comes out in a public restroom yet again. Florida StateRepresentative, Robert Allen, was arrested for offering to performfellatio to an undercover cop in the men's room of a park for $20. Thepolitician backed himself up by saying he only offered the policemanoral sex because he was afraid of black people and "didn't want tobecome a statistic"... which makes about as much sense to us as it doesto you. Statistics, though, show that Allen--who is married with children--has always voted against gay rights legislation. His voting record is over 90% in line with the Christian Coalition, an advocacy group for anti-gay amendments. Hehas achieved quite a bit, though, in going from anti-gay, to racist, tohypocrite, all the way to contradictory math error all in one day. Hats off! 9. Ted Haggard 登录/注册后可看大图 Knownas Pastor Ted to his congregation at New Life Church in ColoradoSprings, Colorado, Ted Haggard was outed by prostitute, andprofessional masseur, Mike Jones in November 2006 for paying him toengage in sex with him for three years. He was also purchasing,then using, crystal methamphetamine ("Crystal Meth", for all the kidsout there) with his pay-for-play partner. Haggard had supported Colorado Amendment 43, which bans same-sex marriage in the state. In his own words, he's not a homosexual, he's just a "heterosexual with issues." 10. Mark Foley 登录/注册后可看大图 Oh, Mark Foley. Aman formerly in charge of the House Caucus on Missing and ExploitedChildren (which dealt with legislation protecting Americans againstsexual predators, and made stricter guidelines for tracking them) wascaught having unlawful internet conversations via IM and email with twoformer pages (aged 16 and 18... oh, the irony). Later, two news organizations quoted anonymous former pages saying they had sexual liaisons with Foley after turning 18 and 21. Foley'sanswer to this, after all was said and done (through his lawyer), wasthat he had never "ever had inappropriate sexual contact with a minorin his life" and that he is "absolutely, positively not a pedophile". Hislawyer also said that Foley was a victim of sexual assault by an(unnamed) clergyman as a child and that the inappropriate conversationshe had with the pages were due to alcoholism. Which is all a prettyconvenient way to promote the right-wing "gay = disease" angle whilestill going down in flames. His lawyer also stated that Foley isgay, even after Foley described even the thought of early allegationsof his homosexuality as "revolting and unforgivable".
