Has there ever been a discussion of DeLay and gaydar?

[grasswire]

It seems that often the most asinine or sleazy people in power are repressing some kind of sexual behavior. Has there ever been any discussion of what DeLay might be hiding?

1. I hope he isn't gay

because gay folks have enough to worry about without people identifying them with him.

2. He has sex with Republicans. That is certainly something I would

want to cover up.

[katty]

3. ugh-just the thought of DeLay+sex is nauseating

[mandyky]

4. When DeLay first got to DC

He was known as Hot Tub Tom, and he also drank a lot. Not sure if it was men or women in that hot tub though. LOL

5. I squash gay-dar about Delay - We don't want him on our side.

To hell with him.

6. As a gay man, I am offended. :) The heteros can't pawn this one off on

us.

7. We could put Triumph the Comic Insult Dog on his scent

and see what he comes up with

[bemildred]

8. I'm sure he has "issues", but I don't think he's gay. nt

9. Oh God who cares! Repugs in general are sleazy individuals!

This much is true. If he were gay, perhaps he would possess some humility! He is a corrupt scumbag, bottom line.

10. Tom DeLay is not gay, goddammit

Here we fucking go again. Anytime someone wants to tar another person, they pull out the gay card.

It's ignorant, homophobic bullshit.

11. They all seem oddly nonsexual to me....

I would suspect that their insatiable need for money and power are substitutes for their inability to function in the bedroom.
