It's almost as if there's a trend for this sort of thing on the Right.

So let me see if I understand your point. It would be OK for this pervert to proposition an 18 yo boy if he voted for gay marriage? Sounds like you are a bit twisted.

And another Larry Craig. This isn't even shocking anymore. I basically assume any Republican or Religious pastor who is rabidly opposed to homosexuality or gay rights will eventually get caught in something like this or publicly admit they are gay.

No, he's pointing out the increasingly common hypocrisy among conservatives on this issue. So many of those who are anti-gay end up getting caught in gay encounters or publicly admit they are gay, after suppressing gay rights most of their lives.

Kerby never insinuated propositioning someone is acceptable.
