→ Christian right leader George Rekers takes vacation with "rent boy"

That man was George Alan Rekers, of North Miami — the callboy’s client and, as it happens, one of America’s most prominent anti-gay activists. Rekers, a Baptist minister who is a leading scholar for the Christian right, left the terminal with his gay escort, looking a bit discomfited when a picture of the two was snapped with a hot-pink digital camera.

Reached by New Times before a trip to Bermuda, Rekers said he learned Lucien was a prostitute only midway through their vacation. “I had surgery,” Rekers said, “and I can’t lift luggage. That’s why I hired him.” (Though medical problems didn’t stop him from pushing the tottering baggage cart through MIA.)

Yet Rekers wouldn’t deny he met his slender, blond escort at Rentboy.com — which features homepage images of men in bondage and grainy videos of crotch-rubbing twinks — and Lucien confirmed it.

It doesn’t take a social scientist to see the trend that has developed with regard to homophobic far-right conservatives being outed constantly. Denial ain’t just a river, as they say.

I hate hypocrisy!

I would love to see someone with far more money to burn than I — Larry Flint, perhaps? (who plays $15,000 a round at blackjack) — pledge to give some whopping amount of money to the most anti-right wing cause in the world each time an anti-gay bigot is outed. Is there a finishing school for disabled feminist undocumented Asian-Latino tranny drag queen lesbians somewhere?
