Being gay is not a political accomplishment in itself. It's not enough to constitute a political platform.

State governor is certainly nothing to be sneered at! But I don't think that there are still limits here. A gay man could presumably also become chancellor.

A number of individuals tried to make my homosexuality a topic of debate. I admittedly found that rather upsetting.

I've always felt at home in the Church. Catholics are often more laid back than they are given credit for - presumably because at the back of their minds they realize that, if necessary, they can always confess everything to their local priest.

It's ridiculous to insinuate that the social recognition of homosexual civil unions damages families or the institution of marriage.

As conservatives, we can only be glad if two people legally take responsibility for each other, in good times and bad.

I've never made a secret of my homosexuality.
