News88 Blog Of The Day 02/16/2005: Gay Republicans........And Happy Birthday Janet And Monica!

#1. Happy Birthday Janet And Monica! Today is the birthday of two of my Internet Department Office members and now News88 team members, Janet I Henderson, and Monica K Hallman, who are each turning apiece 27 to 28 (Janet1977) and 25 to 26 (Monica1979) today. Their nicknames are online as mampbajwifey1977 and monica1979 here. Ask them what their nicknames mean, particularily Janet, as i will stay clear out of that one for now. They were born February 16, 1977 and February 16, 1979. If you would like to wish either a happy birthday today, Janet can be reached at janethenderson77@hotmail.com and/or Monica can be reached at hmonicagirl7998@hotmail.com.

#2. Gay Republicans.
Beginning in the late 1970's, Republicans seized control of every branch of the U.S. government in part through vicious gay-baiting.

After Bill Clinton won his first victory in 1992, Republicans immediately and relentlessly attacked him for tolerating gays in the military.

In 2004, Bush and the Republican Party made their opposition to gay marriage the centerpiece of their campaign. They put anti-gay marriage amendments on state ballots to turn out homophobic voters. They furiously attacked John Kerry for pointing out (in a supportive way) that Dick Cheney's own daughter is openly gay.

Now we know Bush's White House waved a gay male prostitute - Jim Guckert - into White House press conferences nearly every day for two years. Guckert, like many closeted gay Republicans, engaged in vicious gay-bashing himself: during the 2004 campaign, he wrote articles accusing John Kerry of running to be the "first gay president."
