Jack Burkman, a long time right wing lobbyist is writing legislation to ban gays from the NFL:
“Imagine your son being forced to shower with a gay man,” Burkman said in a statement. “That’s a horrifying prospect for every mom in the country. What in the world has this nation come to?”
Of course, your son is already showering with gay men in gym class, at the health club, in the US military, in the NFL, and in the US Congress. The only difference is that in some of those places, your son is simply not aware of who the gay guy is. The NFL being more welcoming to gays won’t change the simple fact that just because you don’t know who’s gay, doesn’t mean the gay men aren’t already there.
Normally, I would say that kicker to this story is that his brother James is gay and out, and thinks that Jack is an asshole:
But this is not the kicker to this story.
The kicker to the story was that he was on the DC Madame’s phone list.
So, Jack was a ……… John. (He denies it ……… Yeah ……… Sure)
