Eddie Long's Wife Splits: (Cuz She Can't Compete With All Those Young Men?)

Weeks after he allegedly paid a $15M hush-money settlement to the four young men who accused him of sexual coercion, the wife of publicly anti-gay Bishop Eddie Long has reportedly moved out the house. Black Media Scoop has the dirt:

The latest bombshell has hit his home life. BMS has learned that Bishop Eddie Long’s wife, Vanessa allegedly packed up her bags and moved out of the $1.5million dollar home. Long married Vanessa Griffin in 1990. She worked on the Board of Directors for the Faith Academy. She also headed many ministries, mostly those dealing with women’s issues. They have 3 children together Edward, Jared, and Taylor. BMS has also learned that she allegedly took one of the children with her to stay at an undisclosed family members home! Our source says Vanessa allegedly agreed to stick by Long until the sex scandal drama was over and then she’d leave. This is Long’s second go around at the chapel of love. He married Dabara S. Houston in 1981 and they have one son together Eric Long.

Remember The Asshat Legislator Who Tried To Repeal LGBT Rights In Montana?

She's totally a closeted lesbian. So says my very trusted tipster who adds this about Montana state GOP Rep. Kristin Hansen: "She lives with a woman who she introduces to others as her 'friend' but has confirmed to a handful of people is her partner. The partner's ex has also been telling people what's up." Hansen was first elected to office last year with the backing of the Tea Party.

Last month Hansen failed in her attempt to issue a statewide repeal of all local LGBT rights in Montana, a law that would have only affected the small town of Missoula, the one place in the state with LGBT anti-discrimination protections. According to my source, Hansen will be outed at an upcoming meeting of University of Montana students.

Kickin' Down The Cobblestones

New York City has officially renamed the Queensboro/59th Street Bridge after its most famous closet case, former Mayor Ed Koch, who still coyly refuses to come out at the age of 86. I really hate the renaming of iconic century-old landmarks, particularly when that person had nothing to do with its construction. Coming up next, the Bloomberg Midtown Tunnel?

Ed Koch For New York Marriage

Former NYC Mayor Ed Koch is 86 years old and he still won't come out, but at least he supports marriage equality. From a famed 2007 interview with Time Out New York:

TONY: Are you gay?

KOCH: When was the last time you performed oral sex on your boyfriend?

TONY: Well I’m single now so it was a long time ago.

KOCH: See, I don’t think you should answer that question. It’s an improper question, and so is yours. My sexual orientation is none of your business and whether or not you performed oral sex on your boyfriend is none of my business.

Here's his just-released clip for the HRC.

CORRUPTION BUST: New York Post Outs Anti-Gay Sen. Carl Kruger And Boyfriend

The New York Post has blown the lid off the federal corruption investigation of anti-gay state Sen. Carl Kruger, outing both Kruger and his wealthy gynecologist boyfriend.

Closeted Brooklyn state Sen. Carl Kruger, a Democratic powerhouse, traded political favors for more than $1 million in bribes over the last five years -- which his live-in boyfriend helped launder, the feds charged yesterday. Kruger and his secret longtime companion, Manhattan gynecologist Michael Turano, were among eight men arrested in a sweeping government "pay-to-play" corruption scandal. The charges include allegations that Kruger, Brooklyn Assemblyman William Boyland and previously convicted Queens Assemblyman Anthony Seminerio -- who died in prison in January -- received bribes and other largesse to help two competing health-care companies buy hospitals, and direct state funds to those firms. Kruger's constant companion, Turano, is accused of using bribe money he deposited in two shell companies for Kruger to pay the lease on a Bentley luxury sedan, credit-card bills and the mortgage on the garish, multimillion-dollar Mill Basin home where the two men for years have shacked up with Turano's mom and brother, authorities and neighbors said.

The loathsome Kruger helped sink New York's marriage equality bill in 2009 when he joined eight Democrats in voting against it.

Former Sen. Larry "Wide Stance" Craig Is Trolling Halls Of Congress As A Lobbyist

Now that his two year post-Senate "cooling off" period is over, totally not gay toe-tapper Larry Craig is once again trolling the halls of Congress, but this time it's as a lobbyist.

Craig's firm, New West Strategies, wouldn't actually confirm lobbying was now part of his portfolio. "I didn't say that," said Mike Ware, a principle at New West, adding, with emphasis, that "the cooling off period IS over." But the mere spotting of Craig back on the Hill was enough to raise alarms from those good-government groups who see danger in the coercive influence former members can have on old colleagues. "This is sort of the way of Washington right now. It is not the exception to the rule but more or less a rule itself," said Dave Levinthal, Communications Director at the Center for Responsive Politics. "When you get out of federal office you think about how you can cash in that experience you gained from working in the public sector by going into the private sector."

Former members of the House and Capitol Hill senior staffers are only required to wait one year before that revolving door grants their corporate clients access to the very legislation their new emissaries once authored. According to the above-linked story, so far this year 90 former members of Congress and former Hill staffers have already registered as lobbyists.

Sen. Lindsey Graham About To Be Outed?

Wonkette reports that outing kingpin Mike Rogers finally has the goods on Sen. Lindsey Graham.

Lindsey Graham, South Carolina’s favorite lifelong bachelor and former military prosecutor, is always reliably against homosexuals having any basic human rights in America because Lindsey’s a Republican, y’all. Anyway, famous outer-of-self-hating-queers Mike Rogers says he’s got pictures of one of Lindsey’s boy toys leaving Lindsey’s house. This would be SHOCKING because come on, everybody knows Republicans cannot be gay because Jesus did not make gays.

Mike Rogers has a 100% track record for correctly outing anti-gay closet cases. He's never been proven wrong.

PhoboQuotable - Porno Pete LaBarbera

"I believe this is the most important congressional vote and national debate on homosexuality in the USA — ever. If we lose, it will usher in a sea-change of pro homosexual political correctness — not just on our Armed Forces, but on the rests of society, as a Brave, New, ‘Gay’-affirming military will be held up as the new 'civil rights' paradigm for the rest of America (God help us). And as sure as New Years Day follows Christmas, the Homosexual Lobby will seize upon this (giant) opening and push for more and more pro-homosexuality policy changes in the military — including same-sex partner benefits, 'married' housing for homosexual Service members, sweeping gay 'diversity' propaganda for our troops, etc. What a Christmas 'gift' for our military men and women! (More like a huge, rainbow-striped lump of coal). - Porno Pete LaBarbera, screeching about tomorrow's DADT vote. And for the third or fourth time, LaBarbera illustrates his post with the above altered version of Good As You blogger Jeremy Hooper's wedding photo.

Hate Groups React To DADT Vote

Porno Pete LaBarbera

We are gratified that enough Senators acted to prevent a lame-duck vote to effectively homosexualize the American military -- a Democratic-led effort that is all about Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV), President Obama and the Democrats pandering to their 'gay' activist base and NOT keeping our military strong, nor defending the best interests of our fighting men and women. 'Gay rights' and religious freedom (defense of Judeo-Christian morality) cannot co-exist -- as the persecution of Christians who oppose homosexuality in America and the world over clearly demonstrates -- so we can only deduce that they will not be able to co-exist in a 'homosexualized' military. The military would bring in scores of pro-homosexual activists to effectively 're-educate' the troops in pro-gay 'tolerance and diversity' -- the very same LGBT activists that regularly demonstrate their anti-religious bigotry and animus by falsely equating the defense of biblical sexual morality with 'hate' and 'homophobia.' The introduction of pro-'gay' propaganda into the military would undermine morale and cohesion in the Armed Forces.

Family Research Council

“This is the second time in 2010 that the U.S. Senate has rejected an insistent liberal social agenda and delivered a victory for the men and women of our Armed Forces. Despite continued attempts by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to use the military to advance this agenda, a bi-partisan group of senators has soundly declared that they will side with the priorities of the American people. First and foremost, Congress must address the impending tax increases and budget issues. Senator Susan Collins broke her pledge to first stop the looming tax hikes before moving to consider any other legislation. Senator Collins hasn’t been listening to voters who sent a clear message on Election Day that they have had enough of politicians who break their word only to side with liberal special interests,” concluded Perkins.

Porno Pete: If You're Not Listed As A Hate Group, You Aren't Hating Hard Enough

Right Wing Watch reports that not only is Porno Pete LaBarbera proud of his SPLC designation as a hater, he says that if a Christianist group didn't make the list, they need to be more hateful.

“We are one of the rare groups that is opposed single-mindedly against the homosexual activist movement,” said LaBarbera, who founded AFTAH in 1996. “The so-called gay lobby has reached the zenith of its power. They are everywhere. I don’t feel like a homophobe; as one guy said, I’m homo-nauseated. They are everywhere. You can’t get away from them, even in the schools, so today we are interviewing Barb Anderson of the Minnesota Family Council.”

Both LaBarbera and Anderson agreed that AFTAH’s recognition by the SPLC is a point of pride. “There’s a lot of hatred out there in the so-called gay lobby,” LaBarbera said. Anderson agreed: “Absolutely. They call us a hate group but the emails and the responses we get from them are just full of anger and hateful comments that they make towards us.” “I think it’s becoming perhaps a badge of honor to be called a hate group,” said Anderson. LaBarbera added, “If you are not on the SPLC hate list, you are not doing enough.”

Petey, we are ALL homos-nauseated.

Sen. Lindsey Graham: The Votes Are Not There For The Repeal Of DADT

GOP closet case Sen. Lindsey Graham (SC) said yesterday that there are not enough Senate votes for a repeal of DADT.

Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said Sunday the Senate likely doesn't have enough Republican votes during Congress' lame-duck session to lift the ban on gays serving openly in the military. "I think in a lame-duck setting, 'don't ask, don't tell' is not going anywhere," Mr. Graham, South Carolina Republican, said on "Fox News Sunday." The statement puts renewed pressure on Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Nevada Democrat, who has vowed to call for a full Senate vote on the issue before the congressional session ends at Christmas break.

Democrats need two GOP votes in order to block a filibuster on DADT.

Porno Pete LaBarbera: Gay TSA Agents Totally Want To Touch Your Junk

Writing from his dildo-strewn basement dungeon in the suburbs of Chicago, Porno Pete LaBarbera is freaking out over Janet Napolitano's assurance that all airport security pat-downs will be done by agents of the same gender as the passenger. Because that's exactly what all those queer TSA agents are hoping for!

“But what about homosexual TSA agents?” AFTAH President Peter LaBarbera responded. “Isn’t it just as inappropriate for a ‘gay’ male TSA agent to pat down male travelers as it is for a normal, heterosexual male TSA agent to pat down female travelers? “The reality is, most traveling men would not want Barney Frank to pat them down at the airport security checkpoint,” LaBarbera said. “Neither would it be fair to assign Ellen DeGeneres to pat down female travelers. (In the same vein, the Army should no more force normal male soldiers to shower and bunk with homosexual male soldiers than it would force females soldiers to bunk and shower with their male counterparts.)” [snip] “To allow homosexual agents to conduct same-gender pat-downs is tantamount to a new form of discrimination that must be recognized and prevented.”

According to Porno Pete, the answer is "common sense, healthy, discrimination" essentially barring gay people from working for the TSA.

NOM's Brian Brown Gloats Over Iowa

Tweet Of The Day - Brian Brown

Iowa's Supreme Court justices have been ousted thanks to NOM's campaign of lies and religious bigotry and their outright refusal to abide by state campaign finance laws. And with NOM's money, New Hampshire has seen a large number of anti-gay GOP state legislators swept into office. Therefore Brian Brown, who fucking literally should be in jail in numerous states, is predicting the coming overturn of marriage equality in both states.
