According to an article entitled Bigots are buggers :
"Research by US psychologists suggests that 80% of men who are homophobic have secret homosexual feelings.
"The research results were published in the prestigious Journal of Abnormal Psychology, with the backing of the American Psychological Association.
"In tests conducted by Prof. Henry E Adams of the University of Georgia, homophobic men who said they were exclusively heterosexual were shown gay sex videos. Four out of five became sexually aroused by the homoerotic imagery, as recorded by a penile circumference measuring device - a plethysmograph.
"Prof. Adams says his research shows that most homophobes 'demonstrate significant sexual arousal to homosexual erotic stimuli', suggesting that homophobia is a form of 'latent homosexuality where persons are either unaware of or deny their homosexual urges'.
Huckabee has hired Ed Rollins, the man who helped Ronald Reagan win the greatest landslide in American political history, as his campaign chairman. (Huckabee dubbed Ronald Reagan's heir)Ed Rollins has hailed Huckabee as the candidate he has been waiting for since 'the Great Communicator' left the political stage two decades ago.
Was Ronald Reagan secretly friendly to gay people?
In 1967, a column by Drew Pearson in the New York Post reported that:
'a homosexual ring' had operated out of Governor Reagan’s office for six months 'with his full knowledge' and that the governor 'did not act until pressured by aides into firing the men'.
Pearson alleged that Art Van Court, Reagan’s bodyguard, had a tape recording ‘of a (homosexual) sex orgy which had taken place at a cabin near Lake Tahoe, leased by two members of Reagan’s staff.’
The following paragraph is from: http://www.glbtq.com/social-sciences/republican_party.html
"The first organized and visible gay presence at a Republican National Convention occurred in 1984, when Ronald Reagan became his party's nominee for a second term. However, this presence did not prevent a conservative faction of the GOP from trying, but failing, to oust the newly formed Log Cabin Club, a gay Republican group, from the party in 1987. The effort to oust the Log Cabin Club may have failed because of Reagan's ties to the group."
An 1989 Washington Times investigative report by Paul M. Rodriguez and George Archibald revealed that:
A Washington, D.C. boy prostitution ring was under investigation. The ring numbered among its clients high officials of the Reagan administration.
(“Homosexual prostitution inquiry ensnares VIPs with Reagan, Bush: ‘Call boys’ took midnight tour of White House,” June 29, 1989.)
“The investigation is said to be focused on illegal interstate prostitution, abduction and use of minors for sexual perversion, extortion, larceny and related illicit drug trafficking and use by prostitutes and their clients.”
Reportedly, one former top-level Pentagon officer said that for eight years, military and civilian intelligence authorities were concerned that 'a nest of homosexuals at top levels of the Reagan administration may have been penetrated by Soviet-backed espionage agents posing as male prostitutes.'
Reportedly, lobbyist Craig Spence conducted a 1 a.m tour of the Reagan White House on July 3, 1988 for six friends, including two homosexual call boys.
At this site :http://www.laststory.com/Ronald%20Reagan%20Fact%20and%20Fiction.htm we read:
Reagan knew many homosexuals in Hollywood and considered several of them close, personal friends... Marc Christian, the homosexual partner of the late Rock Hudson, wrote:
“The notion that a Ronald Reagan was a homophobe strikes me as silly beyond belief. Not only did he have several gay men on his staff when he was Governor of California, he called my lover, Rock Hudson, when he was on his deathbed just weeks before he died of AIDS and wished him well and voiced his and Nancy’s concern and prayers. The Reagans had known Rock for years and knew he was gay (as did most of Hollywood). …The point is, Reagan could have ignored Rock’s illness and didn’t.”
