The Gay Difference
August 30, 2007 by Joshua Davis
Senator David Vitter, the guy who had sex with woman prostitutes was welcomed back with applause from other Republicans. Many even came to his defense. But when Larry Craig solicits another man for sex, the party pressure him to relinquish his committees, and some even call for his resignation.
I wonder if the idea of homosexuality being un-Christian is really their cause in hating it. I mean homosexuality from a Christian perspective is just as wrong as sex outside of marriage. And in terms of family protection, I know many more families broken apart by affairs followed by divorce, then by homosexuality.
Both senators committed crimes, both should have to resign. I’m in no way supporting Craig, because we should not have convicted criminals in office. But I would like to see both the morality police and the “get the street thug in jail” police hold their own accountable to equal standards.
Being gay isn’t a crime. Soliciting sex is.

Well in some states it is. But what both of them did (soliciting sex) is the crime, but all I was saying is that there’s no difference in what they did.
