Verdict: Not Gay Enough

Thank you, Mark Steyn, for unearthing yet another gem:

It's come to this:

Veteran Rep. Babette Josephs (D., Phila.) last Thursday accused her primary opponent, Gregg Kravitz, of pretending to be bisexual in order to pander to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender voters, a powerful bloc in the district.

"I outed him as a straight person," Josephs said during a fund-raiser at the Black Sheep Pub & Restaurant...

Kravitz, 29, said that he is sexually attracted to both men and women and called Josephs' comments offensive...

"We've hit a new high point when candidates are accused of pretending to be gay to win a seat," said Mark Segal, publisher of the Philadelphia Gay News.

Hmm. Now you mention it, I wonder if Barney Frank isn't just putting it on...

UPDATE: In related news:

Three bisexual men are suing a national gay-athletic organization, saying they were discriminated against during the Gay Softball World Series held in the Seattle area two years ago.

The three Bay Area men say the North American Gay Amateur Athletic Alliance in essence deemed them not gay enough to participate in the series.

Gregg Kravitz should try that if he loses the primary.
