I didnt see any such comparison made here.
But that is exactly what you see from some conservatives pundits:
Ben Stein, American Spectator:
On the one hand, we have a poor misguided Republican man who had a romantic thing for young boys… I hope it won’t come as a surprise to anyone that a big part of male homosexual behavior is interest in young boys.
Linda Harvey, WorldNetDaily:
Open or suspected homosexuals should never be elected. The problem with homosexuals is that they frequently don’t have common sense and don’t acknowledge appropriate boundaries. Weird sex, public displays of “affection” and nudity, and sex with youth are built into the “gay” sub-culture.
Tammy Bruce, political analyst, Fox News:
All I want, frankly, is a gay person in office who is not a sexual compulsive. I mean, is that too much to ask for?
Cliff Kincaid, Accuracy In Meda:
In fact, the entire scandal might have been avoided if Foley’s homosexuality had been exposed and confronted, rather than protected, over the last several years
This kind if ignorance is appalling. Yet I can just imagine many loyals readers nodding their heads in agreement. And rarely do you see such ignorance condemned.
