CNN:
Sen. Hillary Clinton's sexuality is not the most pressing issue on the presidential campaign trail, but it is likely to get a fair amount of attention on a lazy Friday in the nation's capital.
The New York Democrat tells "The Advocate" that she is not a lesbian, according to a story in Friday's edition of The New York Daily News.

The only two candidates - real Democrats - and therefore no longer the "mainline Democrat" who support full and equal rights without fear of being called gay or lesbian with a homophobic sneer is Congressman Kucinich and former Senator Gravel.
The others, are too, avowed heterosexuals, but after Mann Coulter has maligned their masculinity, there are no takers to include human rights in the DLC package to the voters.
Your main LGBT organisation, the Human Rights Campaign, is so born of American lobbyist politics.
It is a gentrified, passive, and compromisory body - not unlike the NAACP while MLK and his Leadership Conference actually won the civil rights. The NAACP was born during Plessy times with Jim Crow and saw lynchings and a Republican Party of Lincoln silent to their needs and human rights aspiration
Until and unless, same sex couple families with children - armed with legal marriage documents from Canada and Massachusetts - walk and demand their rights...j
NONE of that will change for 30 years, Bush's homobigotted stocked Supreme Court will make sure of that.
So for those COWARDLY Democrats who supported Roberts and SCALITO...
Arianna, the photo is not of Hillary making that statement at all, it is your picture play and spin, based on your own subversive intent on attacking her wherever and whenever possible. Time and again Arianna, for over the past two years, you have done your very best to try and undermined her and sabotage her campaign, as best you can, and here you go again. In any review of your treatment of Hillary, it will be found that your angst against her shows, if it's just from a fit of personal jealousy, it's still no excuse, for the way you've tried to savage her good character. Knock it off for the sake of your own reputation, if not that of the 'Huffington Post' itself.
I feel sad for many of my fellow HuffPo members. So much hate for Hillary Clinton...
On one hand you preach that she has no real political "experience" yet grant her supreme responsibility for her Iraq vote. You write about her marriage to Bill as if yours was the blueprint for success, void of any marital strife or fork in the road.
Over the years, I've always felt suspect about people who hate someone they've never met. You can dislike the performance of a politician but the venom that gets spewed here goes far beyond that. It's strange and yes...fall
Thank goodness the majority (99%) of my liberal friends, many who are not Clinton-supporters, have nothing in common with you.
In the style of Bill Maher,
NEW RULE
If someone is touching a politician's nasty bits, and it's NOT YOU.....it
I'm not a lesbian either.
First Ladies GONE WILD,,,,is such old business.
Eleanor Roosevelt had a longterm relationship with her female secretary, while Franklin had affairs with 5 women....g
Jack Kennedy cheated, LBJ cheated, Bush Senior cheated, Bill Clinton cheated.
George H.W. cheated on dear cottonball-headed Barbara? Say it ain't so! How could he tire of her burly broad shoulders and cottage cheese riddled hind quarters? What a succulent delight?! I can't imagine...
The creepiest thing with Bush 41's mistress is she was nearly identical to big ass Barbara...
Jennifer Fitzgerald (born Jennifer Ann Isobel Patteson-Knight in 1932) is a retired U.S. diplomat who allegedly had a long-term affair with President George H.W. Bush from the time he was United States ambassador to China which continued while he was Vice President and then President. She served under Bush "in a variety of positions"
one of them being the missionary position.
given her denial, I now know it's true. not that it matters.
So if she denied it, it's true, and if she admitted it, it would be true? But you're right about one thing. it doesn't matter.
my point is that I am highly suspect of everything she says...
but like I said, it doesn't matter if a person is gay or straight. If you can do the job, that's all that matters.
Must be great to have such a keen intellect. If she had said yes, would you then say she isn't?
Lord love a duck, you trolls are deep.
Dumbass Democrats are like little children trying to get their lunch money back from bully Republics. "I condemn the ad. I am not a lesbian. I believe the Earth may be flat. I have nothing to say about a student being tortured with a taser for asking me a challenging question."
Ask Hillary, are you a panderer? Guilty. Will you endorse immoral and unethical Republic legislation because the prevailing winds tell you to? You bet. Ask John Kerry, are you waiting for polls to tell you what to think about the torture and violation of civil rights done in your name? Naturally.
Dear Bloginwitc
In another country, a half century or more ago, you would have worn the uniform of an SS auxiliary - women who supported the SS in their "needs" - rape, murder, and torture.
I'm sorry....g
Oh good grief as if we didnt know already.
Whatever next.
I only use ethical make-up?
What did you know, Fem? From you I would expect more depth.
I don't even know why the question came up or why she had to state the obvious.
Maybe I just don't understand American culture anymore.
It just seems so irrelevant.
Sorry for not being profound about a statement of such banality, as I could hardly be bothered wondering about the psycho social consequences of such a deeply moving declaration.
Know what already?
Ann Coulter is the Rethugs "hit-bitch" to say that John Edwards is the Brecht Girl and a "faggot." John Edwards or Elizabeth Edwards, would probably kick ass on any Rethug "real man" (Coulter is not a real man) who said anything like that - so the Rethugs hide behind a woman, just like Bush hides behind General Petraeus' skirts.
Where KKKarl Rove and his manly physical self these days. Bush had a "mandate," he claims,. Was that Jeff Gannon anyone? Who was Jeff Gannon servicing in the Whitehouse? 200 overnighters! That's a real press corp operator. Pressing someone. Overnighters in the Lincoln bedroom for sale!!
So why the Rethugs even talk about Monica amazes me. We all remember Larry's stallward performance and denials, the recent arrest of Rethug Assitant U.S. Attorney who tried to hang himself yestedrday. I guess he was "protecting the children as Alberto says."
Mark Foley and the Pageboys. What Family Values? The message is to protect your family from the Rethugs. Looks like the church in San Diego coughed up 650 million, and in LA and Orange County about 1.4. That's about 2 billion for raping kids. Then the Boston area payments. Looks like Jeff in Utah is walking on his polygamy.
This topic sure does bring out the inner junior-high stupidity, not to mention misogyny, in a lot of the commentors. First of all, it's OK to say "I am not a lesbian" or "I am not gay", as long as it's the truth. And as a gay man I appreciate her saying that [her heterosexuality] is something "I have no control over". And as for "hugs4u": Why would you respect her more if she were a lesbian, and do you really think that Bill has a zipper problem because Hillary is not a "good hetersexual" (sic). Honestly! Grow up, and get off the comments board.
How does this site compare to Perezhilto
No, but I am. Any offers ladies?????
Phew!!!! What a relief!!!
And even if she were she wouldn't be in Minneapolis at the airport in a bathroom stall. I think any political discussion of homosexuality ought to center around that for a while.
Minneapolis is going to build "The Larry Craig Museum", in cooperation with American Standard Plumbing Fixtures, because he has done more for Minneapolis tourism than the artist formerly known as Prince
