At first glance he's being homophobic. But yes, he's really saying that anyone who can't come out to Mom and Dad is too fucked up to serve in Congress. He's right, although he could have put it more delicately. Interesting! At first glance he’s being homophobic.

Though I'll grant that the word "lifestyle" is a negative buzzword. But it doesn’t seem from what I’ve read here that gayness was used in a derogatory way; merely closetedness.

Any leader or government official who isn't comfortable enough in their own skin to even tell their own parents is a target for blackmail or other "coercion" tactics and crimes. If having Mommy and Daddy know that you're gay scares you so much, how much more would it scare you if people with REAL power and influence knew? I wouldn't want my leaders to be susceptible to having their arms twisted at my or my community's expense, either. While the tactic is nauseating, the point is valid.
