“I’m No Plant,” Says Gay Soldier
Keith Kerr appeared on CNN’s American Morning to defend charges that he works for the Clinton Campaign. Kerr caught our eye, of course, when he asked the Republican presidential candidates why they support Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.
Debate sponsors CNN and YouTube claimed not to know that Kerr works for Clinton’s queer steering committee and all other parties deny a collusion.
An openly gay retired soldier who quizzed Republican candidates about the military’s don’t ask don’t tell policy was not acting on behalf of Hillary Clinton, despite his role on her campaign’s gay-rights steering committee, the campaign said Thursday.“He is not a campaign employee and was not acting on behalf of the campaign,” Clinton spokesman Phil Singer told RAW STORY.
Listen to Anderson Cooper’s post-debate disclaimer, as well as Kerr’s own explanation and subsequent celebration of Servicemembers Legal Defense Network:
who comes up with this? plant or no plant, it was a damn good question….
(and tragic answers)
i don’t even have time to read this entire blog, what makes you think i’m lame enough to read that entire diatribe (whoever you are)?
Jesus, Leland! Further it’s a comment to a post from YESTERDAY. AB: move it to where it belongs. Jeeze, Louise.
WWH: Ditto! Old Posting
As Dawster said, the question is valid. What is wrong with spirited debate including questions from opponents rather than vapid questions from Repug supporters?
(Leland – you really need medical attention. No one is going to read that.)
Leland’s comments are always extremely long, I see them at other gay blogs. Maybe he should just write a book, as he seems to have a lot of time on his hands.
Leland, lets get medial attention together. We both lots of time and we should just hang out, maybe comb each other’s hair – wait, I do not have hair – maybe you can comb my chest hairs and just sing to me.
Apparently something I posted has upset another commenter so much that they must go to the lengths of logging in under my name and creating “insulting” comments. It’s interesting to see that I have such power over someone.
Sorry, y’all. More than happy to take my licks [no pun intended] for what I write myself, but I did not repost my earlier commentary about the Brokaw book in this unrelated thread [why would I?] nor, certainly, append a host of religionist garbage to it when I’m a card carrying athiest.
Unfortunately, to pretend to be me or Gregg or anyone it’s as easy as typing in a name. No log-in required. I’m thinking of posting as Anna Nicole Smith next.
Whether he was planted or not it took guts to stand up and say that in a room full of Repugs.
Are Gregg and Leland the same person? You smelt it, you dealt it. Pretending to be someone not being someone? What? This makes no sense.
