Kruger gets called a homo in Capitol

Well, perhaps not verbatim, but per Liz, Joe Bruno's favorite Democrat didn't manage to slink away quickly enough to escape teh gays.

After voting "no" on the gay marriage bill yesterday, Sen. Carl Kruger exited the Senate chamber and walked straight into the buzzsaw that was Allen Roskoff and Corey Johnson.

The two outspoken gay advocates stunned onlookers by heckling the Brooklyn Democrat, publicly calling his sexuality into question and threatening to support a primary candidate against him in 2010.

You know, this fills me with compassion. Not because of any fondness for Kruger, but because coming out can be tough. God alone knows how long it took me, not to mention all the self-loathing, misery and loneliness that go with the territory before your own screaming sorrow over your wasted life pushes you out that door and into the first leather bar you can find. So I propose a trial by fire: The Eagle.

You're welcome.

Re: Kruger gets called a homo in Capitol

Kruger comes to my club's meetings every so often, says hello and tells us he's a Progressive Democrat and then leaves. Next time I'll give him the flyer for "The Eagle."
