Caught Red-Handed

It seems to me that most of the people that are so publicly anti-gay are the ones caught with their pants down, so to speak, in a very gay situation. Today, I was reading about Reverend George Rekers. Yes I did say reverend. He is about as right wing as you can get. He doesn't believe that gays should be able to adopt and has even testified as an "expert" witness in adoption cases in both Arkansas and Florida. He also heads up the National Association of Research and Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH). All I can say to that title is WOW! Rekers is accused of hiring a male prostitute from rentboy.com to lift his luggage on his recent trip to I for get where. Naturally a right wing bigot would hire a male prostitute to be his luggage lifter (oh the innuendo that I could spin off of that statement.) I continue to be amazed that the most bigoted people in the country are the ones who seem to have something to hide. They are so ashamed of their sins that they come out the strongest against them. The excuses that these people, mostly men it seems, come up with make me laugh. "I didn't know he was a hustler until midway through the trip." Really? You are a very important political figure and the assistant that hired your luggage boy didn't bother to make sure he wasn't a prostitute? Perhaps someone was just playing a cruel joke on the reverend. Or maybe the reverend has some inner demons of his own to wrestle with. I just wonder why these people that are so anti-gay, banging their bibles on their pulpits and screaming at the top of their lungs that gays should have no rights always seem to be the ones that get caught in places they really shouldn't be i.e. gay bars, with male prostitutes, you know the usual. Any thoughts?
