Why do gays always get blamed??

Cause we are an easy target and its easy to vilify us. Cowards who blame others for their own mistakes do that, shift blame to someone or something else, it happens everywhere but politicians are pro's. Apparently the GOP knew about having a pedophile in their ranks for years and did nothing. Oh and I don't believe he is gay for a moment. I'll bet we hear some sort of news story in the future about how he found religion and was cured of his "homosexuality". Then he can safely go on molesting children and teens with the GOP's blessing.
We as a nation are letting these people destroy the American system of government. George, Alexander, Ben, the Adams boys, John H and Tom are rolling over in their graves.

There's been gay politicians for decades. On both sides. Nothing new. I don't agree that the gays that want to remain silent about it for now should have their names pubicly known. This is a very personal matter for them and they should be the ones to open up about their own sexuality in their own time. It's not a crime to be gay. If they are pedophilias, which is a crime, then I think their names should be pubicly known to warn us so we can protect our children. That's a different situation.
Since there is a separation between church and state, it's difficult to talk about homosexuality in the government. To many Christians being gay is a sin. But remember Clinton having affairs? Isn't adultery also a sin? And the Democrats did all they could to protect his image. Where is the cut off?

It is a shame that it always comes down to a "gay thing" but I do find it hilarious to watch the hypocritical "family values" Repubs shaking in their shoes that the majority will be unemployed after November!

It is another way to shift blame from poverty, drugs and underfunded education in the US, among other things. It is also a diversion from the War. Gays get blamed because they are the newest "minority." It was women, before that blacks, Jews, etc.

Because compassionate conservatism is an oxymoron, like Reagan Memoirs?

I surely don't think being gay means you are a pedophile and with all this wickered behavior going on it seems we've become Rome.

More proof of absolute hatred in the Christian heart.
