Being Gay In Stephen Harper's Cabinet

ONE OF Stephen Harper’s senior cabinet ministers is a closeted homosexual. Because the minister’s desire to keep his or her sex life private outweighs whatever public interest there might be in letting readers know about that sex life, reporters never write about it.

. . .Mr. Harper does not care one way or another about gay people, . . .

---------------

Why should he care about them. The righteous are more concerned about the Rapture than they are about their neighbour.

Harper is that type of self-righteous god-bothering jumped-up
fundy so-called Christian.

And the un-righteous among us can all go hang!

So, that's all right then, isn't it?

Um, I'd say *any* individual's right to keep their sex life private trumps whatever prurient "public" interest there is the Minister's (or any individual's) private life. Quite simply, there's is nothing newsworthy about it.
