Illinois Gays demand that Mark Kirk come out of the closet

Illinois corruption-fighter Andy Martin is once again drawing attention to public demands that Mark Kirk openly declare his homosexuality.

Personally, I don’t care,” Andy Martin says. “But Mark Kirk’s homosexuality is becoming an increasingly important issue in the election.” Martin was the first person to tell Illinoisans about then-rumors that Mark Kirk was a closeted gay man. Now all of Martin’s allegations have been repeatedly verified from within the homosexual community. Martin’s controversial radio ads were attacked as untrue by crooked Illinois Republican leader Pat Brady. Subsequent events have confirmed that Brady, not Martin, was the liar.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Gay Chicagoans say that Mark Kirk is being blackmailed by Democrats

“Why would any Republican want to vote for Kirk?” Martin asks; “So the Democrats can blackmail Kirk? Voting for Kirk makes no sense at all”

(CHICAGO)(August 26, 2010) In the wake of former Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman’s admission that he is gay:

Illinois gays are exposing, once again, that Mark Kirk is also a homosexual:

ken-mehlman-comes-out-he-needs-to-bring-aaron-
schock-and-mark-kirk-with-him/

Mark Kirk was part of the notorious “gay colony” in Speaker Dennis Hastert’s office in the House of Representatives that covered up the outrageous activity of sexual predator Mark Foley.

We at ContrarianCommentary.com have nothing against gays; every person has a right to lead their own lives in peace and security. But people who want to participate in the public arena of national politics can’t lie to voters; they owe every Illinoisan the truth and nothing but the truth about who they are. Mark Kirk has been caught lying so often about so many things that it is evident he has no concept of morality or truth.

HillBuzz.org gets to the heart of the problem when it states:

It matters that Mark Kirk and Aaron Schock are gay because being closeted gay males makes them blackmail candidates for the Left, and that means these men are in office with guns to their heads, doing what the Left wants, and not what voters sent them to do. These should not be men the GOP pushes for high office, because electing them to the Senate is no better than sending a putz of a Democrat there. They will vote the same, but at least having a Democrat in the seat means the GOP won’t have another Lindsey Graham on its hand, to embarrass the party whenever Democrats pull his own gay blackmail strings.

We couldn’t have said it better.

Stay tuned for more Mark Kirk sex scandals.

PALM BEACH [CHICAGO] NEWS CONFERENCE: Wednesday, June 2 31

Chicago crime fighter Andy Martin has new blockbuster disclosures in Mark Kirk “homosexual”/military fraud scandal

Illinois political corruption expert Martin was the first person to systematically analyze and disclose Mark Kirk’s stolen valor and closeted personal life.

“How sweet it is,” Martin says. “I told the truth and the morons in the Illinois Republican Party attacked me for telling the truth about Kirk. Now these losers have nominated a homosexual military fraud to run as a Republican. Delicious.”

What about Kirk’s claims to have been a “CIA agent, ” Martin will ask today?

Andy Martin says Mark Kirk is jeopardizing the entire Illinois statewide Republican Party ticket in 2010

ANNOUNCEMENT OF WEDNESDAY NEWS CONFERENCE IN PALM BEACH

Andy Martin says he promised to take down Mark Kirk; the takedown is continuing with new blockbuster disclosures about the corrupt congressman

In another of his Walter Mitty exaggerations Kirk also claims to have been a “CIA agent”

Alexi Giannoulias’ campaign was quietly monitoring Andy Martin’s Kirk investigations

Martin says “party loyalty does not extend to promoting political fraud”

(CHICAGO)(June 2, 2010) Chicago crime fighter and anti-corruption crusader Andy Martin will hold a Palm Beach news conference today, Wednesday, June 2nd to announce that he will respond to the remarks by homosexual leaders that Mark Kirk is gay [http://blog.blogactive.com/2010/06/truth-or-consequences.html] by disclosing that Martin has new military fraud and sex scandal issues to publish concerning Kirk.

Martin is best known around the world as the “Internet Powerhouse” investigative blogger who has exposed many of Barack Obama’s personal lies. Martin recently returned from his fourth investigative trip to Hawai’i.

Martin exposed Kirk’s homosexuality and military fraud in radio ads that were broadcast across Illinois beginning on December 28, 2009 and continuing through February 1, 2010. Listen to the ads at: http://www.andyforussenator.com/andys_ads.htm.
Martin created a media firestorm as Chicago media tried to demonize Martin for telling the truth about Kirk. Martin also documented his claims of military fraud concerning Kirk by posting documents on Martin’s own anti-Kirk web site [www.MarkKirk.us] showing Kirk had never served in Afghanistan.

“For forty-four years I have been fighting political corruption in Chicago and Illinois politics. The only thanks I have received is a continuing smack in the face from the media. Chicago media have lived a lie for the past half century. Media lies keep Daley Machine politics in power.

“Mark Kirk was part of the Republican Party’s ‘extension’ of the Daley Machine, an integral cog in what Chicago Tribune columnist John Kass calls the ‘Combine’ that controls and corrupts Illinois politics.

“I have always worked to find the facts, and searched for the truth, and I did so during the 2009-2010 primary election. But when the truth and facts hit Chicago’s airwaves on December 28th, once again media attacked me for exposing Mark Kirk as one of the greatest frauds in American political history. So far, media have played ‘catch-up’ by only scratching the tip of the iceberg of Kirk’s military fraud.

“My senate campaign broadcast the facts, and Chicago’s media morons responded by attacking me for telling the truth about Mark Kirk. What losers. If ever there was an ‘I told you so’ moment in American politics, this is it. I warned Republican voters that they were going to destroy the party if they voted for Kirk, but no one wanted to hear the truth. Well, we have more and more and more ‘truth’ about Mark Kirk to come.

“Kirk’s military fraud and homosexuality are now jeopardizing the entire statewide and local Illinois Republican ticket. I’ll have more to say about that very shortly.

”Ironically, Channel 7 WLS-TV devoted virtually an entire 90-minute broadcast debate to allowing its ‘journalists’ to trash me for running ads telling the truth about Kirk. Channel 7's Andy Shaw and Charles Thomas owe me an apology. I have a copy of the tape. This is one of the greatest media scandals, and media embarrassments, in recent media history. The truth was out there in the open, and Chicago media attacked the truth and attacked the truth-teller. Is it any wonder the state of Illinois is dying? That ordinary Illinoisans feel betrayed?

“I even put up blogs, and everyone still pretended the truth wasn’t there when the documents were staring them in the face:
www.DefeatMarkKirk.blogspot.com;
www.contrariancommentary.typepad.com/defeatmarkkirk/

“Ironically, the only one who paid any attention to me was Alexi Giannoulias. His people were quietly observing my campaign from a distance and taking down everything I disclosed about Kirk.

“There is a lesson here for Republicans, and it is ‘nonpartisan.’ In other words, whether someone is a ‘conservative’ or ‘liberal’ Republican, pay attention to the truth and the facts. Don’t sweep a candidate’s lies under the carpet and expect to get away with it.

“Please forgive me if I chortle at today’s news conference. I promised to bring down Mark Kirk, and I will. In my opinion, party loyalty does not extend to promoting political fraud. I support the rest of the Illinois Republican ticket.”

Martin is in Palm Beach visiting relatives.

NEW YORK NEWS CONFERENCE Saturday: Anti-Elena Kagan “War Room” will oppose Obama’s pro-Kagan White House War Room


Obama author and investigator Andy Martin will announce Saturday that he is activating an anti-Elena Kagan “War Room” to counter the pro-Kagan War Room being operated by the White House. “People are confused,” Martin says. “They need somewhere to go. We are ready. The denials that Kagan is a lesbian have raised more questions than they answer. The denials ‘drop off’ after Kagan’s college years. And they fail to account for the fact that both homosexual men and women go on ‘dates’ with members of the opposite sex as well as having ‘crushes’ and attractions. Same-sex identification is not something that excludes affection or companionship with the opposite sex. Many unmarried heterosexual women in New York, for example, have homosexual men as ‘best friends’ and companions. In Palm Beach, homosexual men are often ‘walkers’ for prominent females.”

ANNOUNCEMENT OF NEW YORK NEWS CONFERENCE SATURDAY

ANDY MARTIN SAYS THE LACK OF ANY DENIALS KAGAN IS A LESBIAN WHICH ARE TIRED TO KAGAN’S CAMBRIDGE YEARS AS A LAW DEAN IS “DEVASTATING”

MARTIN SAYS REPUBLICAN “OLD BOYS” NETWORK SUPPORT FOR KAGAN IS SIMPLY CURRYING FAVOR FOR FUTURE RECIPROCITY

(NEW YORK)(May 15, 2010) ContrarianCommentary.com’s Executive Editor, Andy Martin, will hold a New York City news conference Saturday, May 15th to announce that he has activated an anti-Elena Kagan “War Room” to counter the White House’s pro-Kagan war room.

“Obama is prepared to propagate his lies about Kagan,” Martin says. “We must be prepared to answer with the truth, and to keep seeking the truth about the mysterious Ms. Kagan. Who is Elena Kagan?

“The mainstream media have been flooded with denials that Kagan is a lesbian. The only problem: most of these denials are based on ‘college dorm’ experiences. No one has discussed who Kagan lives with in Cambridge, Massachusetts. That is why yesterday we launched investigations at the Harvard Law School and in Cambridge. Who had/has a key to Kagan’s home? Who lived at Kagan’s home?

“The claims she has had ‘crushes’ on boys in college are sheer nonsense. In New York and most urban areas, heterosexual women are often attached to homosexual men, and occasionally vice versa. Being a lesbian is not incompatible with ‘dating’ men or having close friends who are men, any more than the opposite is true for heterosexual women.

“No one has attested to Kagan’s sexual identity during the last couple of decades. They keep talking about the period when she lived in a college dorm. The lack of any denials concerning her recent or current years in Cambridge is devastating to Kagan.

“The attempt of Washington Post writers such as Ruth Marcus to claim Kagan is asexual because she is a successful woman are embarrassing and transparent sexist eyewash.

“The issue is simple: who had a key to her home in Cambridge? Now in Washington? Who lived/lives there besides Kagan? These questions need an answer. No one has yet provided it. Based on what we have learned and are learning, Kagan led a same-sex lifestyle in Cambridge during the years when she was a law school dean”

Martin will release an update 9n the Cambridge investigation on Sunday.

NEW YORK NEWS CONFERENCE; Investigation begins into Elena Kagan’s private life in Massachusetts

Obama author and investigator Andy Martin will announce Friday that he is launching investigations into Elena Kagan’s private and professional life in Cambridge, Massachusetts and at Harvard Law School. “Since others are concentrating on Kagan’s ‘public’ record, what little there is, we will focus on her personal lifestyle, and specifically evidenced of same-sex relationships,” Martin says. “I note that the so-called ‘mainstream media’ are apparently doing no investigation in Cambridge. The pro-gay New York Times and others have adopted a ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ policy concerning Kagan’s alleged lesbian links. They are once again simply prostrating themselves before Obama and Kagan. The so-called ‘media’ are betraying the American people.” Martin is inviting persons with knowledge of Kagan’s personal lifestyle to contact his Internet newspaper.

ANDY MARTIN SAYS HE WILL LEAD A “BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION” INTO KAGAN’S PRIVATE LIFE AT HARVARD LAW SCHOOL AND IN CAMBRIDGE

MARTIN INVITES PERSONS WITH KNOWLEDGE OR EVIDENCE CONCERNING KAGAN’S PERSONAL LIFE TO CONTACT HIM BY MAIL, E-MAIL OR PHONE

MARTIN SAYS JUDGES AND LAWYERS ARE ENGAGING IN A “CONSPIRACY OF SILENCE” CONCERNING KAGAN’S PRIVATE LIFE

(NEW YORK)(May 14, 2010) ContrarianCommentary.com’s Executive Editor, Andy Martin, will hold a New York City news conference Friday, May 14th to announce that he will lead investigative teams to Cambridge, Massachusetts to investigative Elena Kagan’s private life and personal lifestyle. “Ms. Kagan’s supporters have said she is not a lesbian and has not lived in same-sex relationships,” Martin says. “If so, we should come back empty-handed. But if we find evidence of same-sex relationships, and I have every expectation that we will, Ms. Kagan will be guilty of misleading the American people by proxy, and she will have to step down as a Supreme Court nominee. Deception by a nominee is completely unacceptable.

“Personally, I don’t care about Kagan’s private life. But as an investigative columnist I am interested in persons who engage in deception and denial, and who seek to defraud the American people. The cliché that the ‘cover-up is worse than the offense’ probably applies to Kagan’s sexuality. If she would simply own up to her private lifestyle that would probably end the matter. But her concealment is creating hydraulic pressure for more extensive inquiry into her past and present personal life.

“Given that Kagan has successfully concealed all of her own views over the past three decades, and comes before the American people as a cipher with no family of her own and no record of her own except holding staff and administrative jobs for others, we have a right to conduct a searching pre-employment background investigation into who and what she is.

“No one today would hire a mid-level corporate executive without a complete background investigation into both the proposed employee’s personal and professional lives. Yet the Senate is apparently adopting the Obama’ administration’s ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ approach to Kagan’s personal life. Why? Is a job on the U. S. Supreme Court less important than a mid-level corporate position? If the U. S. Senate is too silly or too skittish to search for the truth, we are not.

“It is a truism that our judicial systems are ruled by cronyism and concealment. In particular, lawyers fear retaliation from judges if an attorney stands up and tells the truth. That is why our courts are so corrupt and dysfunctional; they are ruled through a conspiracy of silence. Because I do not practice law, I am not afraid to tell the truth. Never have been, never will be.

“We are launching our investigations in Cambridge, and we will scour that city for sources of information and evidence concerning Kagan’s personal and professional life.

“In a Saturday news conference tomorrow we will offer our insight and analysis of Kagan’s efforts to deflect the ‘lesbian issue’ as well as detailing our own ‘hotline’ that will counter the White House’s own pro-Kagan hotline.

“Finally, there is the ‘hypocrisy’ issue,” Martin states. “Kagan made a moral issue of opposing ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.’ If the issue is 'moral' as she claims, then why is she afraid to stand up and openly profess her own personal solidarity with same-sex relationships? What is her personal morality? Did she hire lesbians to work at Harvard Law School? Did she promote ‘gay’ legal studies and seminars? Good points. But no one knows because the media are engaged in a cover-up and abdication of their responsibility.

“We invite any and every American with knowledge of Kagan’s private life or lifestyle, or years at Harvard Law School, to contact us, either anonymously or by identifying themselves, by e-mail, phone or regular mail. We will sift through the evidence and seek to separate the wheat from the chaff. As I have said in successfully investigating Barack Obama’s past in Hawai’i, we are simply trying to search for the truth and trying to find the facts. ‘Just the facts, ma’am.’”

Internet Powerhouse Andy Martin triggers a “lesbian explosion” over Elena Kagan

Why Elena Kagan’s closeted sexuality matters to the U. S. Senate and the American people:

Monday, May 10th Internet Powerhouse Andy Martin launched a campaign in New York to defeat Elena Kagan based on her closeted sexual orientation as a Harvard/Cambridge lesbian. Two days later Martin’s accusations have triggered a massive mainstream media explosion. Martin, whose powerful internet columns rocked the 2008 presidential election and triggered still-growing national movements about Barack Obama’s religion and birth certificate, has now targeted Kanan for defeat. Martin plans a Friday news conference in New York to announce a new anti-Kagan “hotline” in opposition to Barack Obama’s pro-Kagan hotline in the White House.

Why Elena Kagan’s “secret” sex life should matter to the U. S. Senate

Internet powerhouse Andy Martin says that Kagan’s lack of any familial connections other than her brothers leaves a gap that should be answered: who is she? Who influences her at home?

Martin’s New York City news conference on May 10th trigged a firestorm of mainstream media and talk radio reaction concerning Kagan’s sexuality

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:


ANDY MARTIN SAYS ELENA KAGAN’S “SECRET LIFE” MATTERS AS U.S. SENATORS EVALUATE HER FOR CONFIRMATION

MARTIN’S EFFORTS TO OPEN AN INQUIRY INTO KAGAN’S SEXUALITY HAS CREATED A MAINSTREAM MEDIA FIRESTORM AND TALK RADIO TEMPEST

MARTIN SAYS KAGAN’S LESBIAN LIFESTYLE “AT HOME” IS AN INSIGHT INTO HER PERSONALITY AND THE INTERNALIZED INFLUENCES ON HER

KAGAN’S LACK OF HER OWN FAMILY IS SIGNIFICANT, MARTIN SAYS

(NEW YORK)(May 13, 2010) Who is Elena Kagan? No one knows. She appears to be a relentless, driven careerist with a single-minded determination to conceal herself from the public. Over the past three decades Kagan has worked in government without exposing either her policy or lifestyle views to anyone willing to comment. She is a cipher. Why? What was she afraid of?

Kagan’s lesbian lifestyle and sexual orientation may offer the answer. Because Kagan was a “closeted” lesbian, in a legal profession that was just beginning to accept women as attorneys, the bulk of Kagan’s personal life has been conducted and lived in virtual secrecy. Because she learned to live in secret as a lesbian she was forced to conduct virtually her entire professional life in secret as well.

ContrarianCommentary.com investigative activity has focused primarily on two issues: Kagan’s sexuality, and on her links to Goldman Sachs, where Kagan was paid $10,000 a day to be a “golden girl” adviser.

There is no doubt that Americans, and particularly politicians, are reluctant to talk about sexuality. But just in the past couple of years, sexuality and homosexuality have been at the center of numerous political/governmental scandals. Sexuality is not an insignificant factor. We have seen in recent years how a person’s inner life can influence and control that person's external actions. Politicians who are conducting surreptitious sexual lives invariably raise question about their public service as well.

The Washington Post has launched a major discussion of, and defense of, Kagan’s sexuality:
http://newsweek.washingtonpost.com/onfaith/
brad_hirschfield/2010/05/kagans_sexuality_
irrelevant_as.html?hpid=sec-religion

Wednesday evening Fox News host Bill O’Reilly was almost reading from the script of my Monday news conference on Kagan. He said Kagan’s sexuality was a “legitimate question” and raised the issue of gay marriage that I focused on. O’Reilly chose Sally Quinn, the doyenne of the Washington Post, as his guest and commentator. When asked if people were talking about Kagan’s lesbian lifestyle in Washington, Quinn answered “Are you kidding?” Obviously, everyone is. But why should we be concerned?

First of all, the canard that public officials are entitled to a “private” lifestyle is nonsense. Public officials trot out their privates when it suits their interests. What about when it suits our interests? Kagan is a blank slate to both the left and right.

Second, Kagan is not seeking a democratic mandate from the voters. She is seeking a confirmation by 100 individuals who will give her a lifetime appointment. This attenuated and indirect process cuts off any “public” campaign and any public inquiries through traditional political channels.

After the issue of Kagan’s sexuality was initially raised on a CBS news blog last month, ContrarianCommentary launched a preliminary investigation. As Kagan’s nomination approached we launched a more extensive inquiry from our temporary fighting camp in Honolulu. Since returning to New York and announcing at a news conference earlier this week our plans to concentrate on Kagan’s sexuality, we have been preparing to launch a major new investigation into Kagan’s past, all of which will be detailed on Friday, May 14th at a New York City news conference.

It is traditional that nominees for high government posts appear at confirmation hearings with their families: wives bring their husbands, and husbands their wives. Children are also produced. Kagan’s parents are dead; she has two brothers who work in New York, one of whom apparently became a socialist extremist. Will the brothers appear? Or will the nominee’s table be empty of any relatives or adult connections? Does Kagan share her life with anyone else? That is a reasonable question. Who?

Obviously we know and Kagan knows that Kagan is not “alone.” Why does Kagan treat her own personal life as though she is engaged in something “dirty” or immoral? If she is truly committed to the GLBT community, as she claimed to be when she threw military recruiters off her campus as a “moral” issue, why is she so afraid to produce her “partner” or “significant other” or whatever she calls the woman she shares her life with?

Kagan’s closeted lifestyle is not a conservative or liberal issue; it is not even a Republican or Democratic issue. It is an issue that provides an insight into her character, her attitudes towards social and familial issues, and her approach to the complex questions involving sexuality that are constantly before the courts. Liberals have as many questions about Kagan as conservatives. That is why ContrarianCommentary.com is pressing ahead with our extensive investigations.

That is why Elena Kagan’s closeted sexual orientation and lesbian lifestyle should matter to senators. Lacking any record of individual professional accomplishment except relentless self-advancement, lacking any visible family connections, we need to know who and what she is. Then, every senator can make an informed determination on whether to support or oppose her.

NEXT: Friday’s news conference will announce a counter to Barack Obama’s 24-house pro-Kagan White House “hotline,” as well as upcoming sexual investigations in Cambridge.

READER BULLETIN: Our previously scheduled Obama news conference and columns based on our Hawai’i research have been pushed back to next week. Due to the urgency of the Kagan matter, she is our immediate priority.

Congressman Eric Massa linked to Rahm Emanuel, Mark Kirk

Internet Powerhouse says Eric Massa is probably gay, and certainly acts nutty. But like a fool in a Shakespearean play, Massa’s claims may actually be closer to the truth than we realize or the Washington media will admit. After all, we know there are homosexuals on Capitol Hill, Martin says. It is illogical to believe they are not equally distributed throughout Washington’s media establishment. For example, the Associated Press assigned an apparently gay reporter to cover Mark Kirk’s U. S. Senate campaign. Martin predicts we have not seen the last of homosexual scandals in the 2010 election cycle.

Politically Correct”

(Editor’s note: ContrarianCommentary.com is scheduled to formally resume publication on Monday, March 15th. However, we prevailed on Andy Martin to do a column on the latest homosexual scandal on Capitol Hill and the scandal’s links to Illinois politics.)

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Andy Martin “connects the dots” between former Congressman Eric Massa, Rahm Emanuel and Illinois U. S. Senate candidate Mark Kirk

Martin notes that homosexual scandals destroyed the Republican Party and that the significance of Eric Massa’s shenanigans and accusations go far deeper than Massa’s superficial theatrics

(NEW YORK)(March 11, 2010) Republicans have been chortling about resigned Congressman Eric Massa’s sexual shenanigans on Capitol Hill. They better look in the mirror.

Massa resigned this week. But it is only after Massa’s resignation that we learned that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi covered up allegations of sexual shenanigans in Massa’s congressional office. Massa's claim that he was "railroaded" may not be as ridiculous as it initially appears. Democrats were engaged in a Republican-style cover-up, until Massa imploded. Interestingly, it was only after Massa left office that the much deeper homosexuality of Massa’s behavior and Speaker Pelosi’s months-earlier knowledge of the scandal became public.

Massa’s behavior, and his accusations White House Chief-of-Staff Rahm Emanuel are more significant than the mainstream media have reported this week.

During the recent Illinois U.S. Senate primary campaign, where I was a candidate, I exposed in Illinois what is widespread knowledge on Capitol Hill: the eventual winner of the primary, Mark Kirk, is a homosexual. The news media responded with attacks on me for telling the truth and exposing the facts about Kirk. Even more interesting, ordinary Republicans did not want to know the truth.

Ironically, the most honest discussion of Kirk’s homosexual appeared in the homosexual media. In a parallel situation to use of the “N-word,” which only African-Americans can use, it appears that only homosexuals are allowed to speak honestly and openly about homosexuality in politics and American life. All others must remain closeted.

Knowledge of Kirk’s homosexuality was widespread in Washington and among Illinois political activists. Only Republican voters had no idea what was going on. And my experience shows they didn't want to know. They were not particularly happy when I became them messenger of the unwelcome truth. I paid a price for truth-telling. But at least I did tell the truth. Which is why I am probably a better writer than politician.

So how are Kirk, Massa and Emanuel connected?

First, Kirk was part of the homosexual colony in House Speaker Dennis Hastert’s office that undermined the Republican Party and helped defeat President George Bush's agenda. I have yet to write the definitive analysis of the Hastert-Kirk-Mark Foley scandal, but I will.

Second, during the Kirk imbroglio, one of the homosexual connections that surfaced was the rumor that Rahm Emanuel was gay.

Although Massa has been seen as a nut case, and his overall behavior is nutty, the evidence of his closeted homosexuality is increasingly evident after the fact. His accusations involving Emanuel may not be as outrageous as they initially appear.

Massa made what on the surface appear to be bizarre allegations against Emanuel. Until you connect the Kirk-Emanuel gossip to Massa. Then “Massa-Emanuel” becomes clearer.

Most of us would not be running around naked in a gym locker room trying to initiate conversations on public policy? So why is Emanuel’s alleged behavior consistent with prior rumors? Emanuel obviously was familiar with the stories abut Massa being gay. Thus, Emanuel’s “naked” approach to Massa was not out of character. He knew Massa was gay, and he was making a “naked” appeal to Massa. For Emanuel the congressional gym had become a gay bathhouse. Massa was not making crackpot accusations about Emanuel’s behavior; he was telling the truth.

So where do we go from here? First, Pelosi’s cover-up has now become public knowledge after Massa left office:
www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/10/
AR2010031003832.html?hpid=topnews

If Pelosi knew, Emmanuel knew. That’s why Emmanuel was running around naked in front of Massa and getting “in his chest.” Emmanuel was obviously aware of the homosexual culture on Capitol Hill, even if he wasn’t a part of it.

Second, before Republicans celebrate the Democratic embarrassment created by Massa’s sexual shenanigans, they should contemplate the time bomb that will probably explode later this year during the campaign season: Mark Kirk’s homosexuality.

The bottom line: we still can’t discuss homosexuality honestly in our politics. Ordinary Republicans mostly “don’t want to know” about homosexuality in the Republican Party. They prefer to pretend it doesn’t exist. At least not before it explodes into a political scandal they can't avoid.

The media? You be the judge. Eric Massa? He may have exposed a deeper vein of homosexuality in the Democratic Party, running all the way into the Obama White House, than readers and viewers have been lead to believe. Like Shakespeare’s "fools" that tell us the truth, Massa may have been a fool who spoke truth without our realizing it. (In a commentary unrelated to my disclosures, one observer suggested Mark Kirk is sharing living quarters in Washington with a homosexual Democratic congressman:

democrats-are-planning-to-do-to-out-
republicans-mark-kirk-and-aaron-schock/

The Massa – Emanuel – Kirk story is not dead yet.
