We can’t figure why this story hasn’t been all over local media, but here it Is:
A Republican State Senator from Bakersfield was busted on a DUI after-bar hours closing Tuesday, the facts of the DUI, not so unusual, were reported on the news wires. The back story came up in the gay press – the Senator who was Red Queen anti-gay and voted against every pro-gay bill especially the proposed Harvey Milk Day – had just left a popular gay bar, Faces, in Sacramento with a male companion in his state-owned car when he was pulled over in walking distance of the Capitol Building. The other guy in the car who was not arrested was Latino and the gay bar had something like a Latino beauty contest that night.
We could not find a darn thing on local media about this by Friday, a posting form a popular gay web site which reported all Thursday… and then Crag Ferguson on his national late night show made fun of the screaming hypocrisy… but we couldn’t find a twig to this in local media on Friday. One can only conclude that hypocrisy is no longer breaking news.
