as the ldr's baptizing folks of other faiths after they've died. Let the dead rest in peace.

Maintaining that one is heterosexual is not being homophobic.

It's not like if Whitney had admitted that she was a lesbian that her record sales would have plummeted so that's why she kept quiet. She made more than enough money to where she didn't have to live in economic fear of anyone outting her WERE she a lesbian.

She said that she wasn't. I'm inclined to take her at her word. I'm not so inclined with someone who spent no appreciable time with her during the course of her life. He is no position to make such declarations--and really, if this was such a fucking burning issue with him, why did he take the cowards way out and make his accusations after she'd died? Why wasn't he beating this drum on twitter during the course of the last 5 years over this, since it burns so hot in his soul?

He's a rapacious, greedy-grasping jackass.
