Read through if ya like, pretty self explanitory. I myself don't know what to think. I think in a sense it was a poor move. This isn't on the grounds that he was gay, but the fact that he is openly gay, which means practicing.

All in all doesn't suprise me though, the GLBT's are crawling out of the wood work these days it seems, and making a push.
