OUTING!

[WillParkinson]

You find conclusive evidence that (fill in the name of your least favorite conservative) had a sexual affair with another man. Now this wasn't a teenagers doing an experiment kind of thing. This was when the conservative was well into his 30's. It also appears as though there may be more skeletons in his 'closet'.

Do you out him or allow him to keep his secret?

[varun]

1. Yes

If this person has an anti-gay record, I will out him.

[DenverDem]

2. If he/she has participated in character assassination of others

then he must be outed as a hypocrite.

[buff2]

3. Out him......

but only if he is a conservative. :evilgrin:

4. It would be very tempting, especially considering the hypocracy involved.

However, I value the Golden Rule more than anything else (including those overated "10 Commandments"), so I'd have to say no.

5. Out him. Show no mercy to hypocrites.

6. in that situation? In a heartbeat !!!

7. I'd Choose Color Film

oops. Wrong punch line.

This is sleaze politics. You would be guilty of political malpractice if you did not out the person.

8. What does your conscious tell you to do?

Put the shoe on the other foot for a while. Ask yourself if outing this person would make it right? (no pun intended) What is this person's character like? Do they always vote/talk the straight (no pun intended, again) party line or would they become a powerful ally someday?

9. I'd blackmail him, take a truckload of money...

...and then out him anyway and RUN! :evilgrin:

[smiley_glad_hands]

10. Out them all and let God sort'em out---

At least that's what a Conservative would do. There is no moarality in politics today---thats apart of the past---if there ever was any. The country does need to see the hypocrisy of the right, and in the long run the outing may bring some morality back to politics. In this case maybe the ends do justify the means.

11. If It Were Any Old Closeted Gay Conservative... My Answer Is NO. BUT...

if it's a closeted gay conservative who actively supports policies that discriminate against Queer Americans, or attempts to limit/remove/reduce the rights of Queer Americans, or who actively targets and vilifies Queer Americans, or whose words and actions put Queer Americans in danger, then my answer is YES.

Expose and OUT the hypocrites! Whether they are abortion-hypocrites, extramarital-affair-hypocrites, drug-use-hypocrites... ALL hypocrites must be exposed.

15. My sentiments exactly

Well said, Allen.

[gula]

12. Absolutely!

There is not a more hypocritical bunch than conservatives.

[ronnykmarshall]

13. Depends

If this guy was on the outside a big ol' homophobe, out the lying two faced chicken bastard.

[geniph]

14. Sure, there's nothing wrong with being gay

When people stop hiding it, then maybe people will stop worrying about it.

And there would be a certain schadenfreude involved for anyone who'd been trying to get anti-gay legislation passed...not that that would have anything to do with my decision, of course!

[NoPasaran]

16. Please god let it be Tom DeLay!

He's my least favorite conservative.
