Alan Keyes' Daughter

[DougieZero]

Breaking on the blogosphere... It's...well... very ironic.

EDIT: How old is she by the way or is she fair game?

[GCP]

1. What???

I haven't seen anything

[slinkerwink]

2. she's a 19 year old kid, and her dad's polling numbers sucks

Obama has a fifty-point lead over Keyes, so I don't see what the point was of outing his nineteen-year old kid.

[warrens]

34. You have a point

I am not sure if she was outed, per se. But, um, it helps to shatter what is left of the GOP here. They ganged up to get Ryan, who was a decent guy. He lied, and deserved to go, but it was a right winger who outed him with divorce records he had no right to. He got them from a right wing judge, evidently.

The GOP here has been taken over by the wingnuts. This will destroy them. They promised a win with Keyes and now the moderates will take the party back.

Sorry a young girl has to pay the price.

3. She's 19.

And she was already "out" to a certain degree it seems.

Now the blogosphere has broken the story nationally.

Plus, Alan Keyes was just ripping Cheney's daughter for being gay only a couple of weeks ago.

This will be a hard time for Keyes' daughter. Looks like she is mostly a liberal/progressive with some weird daddy-inspired notions about abortion.

4. not that abortion really applies to her except in a rape case....

That's one of the advantages of being lesbian.... ALL pregnancies are intentional.

12. Mostly all... there will always be some sick jackass that will decide

to teach one a lesson and get her pregnant

[politicat]

21. that's the point of the "rape" bit in the subject....

EOM

5. its too bad she has such an Asshole of a dad. nt

[Lex]

8. Yes, I'm thinking he might've been clueless about this

in which case the kid is going to have a hell of time over the next little while. Or forever.

[sonicx]

9. he knows already

she talked about her sexually with random people while on his campaign trail.

[warrens]

32. I hate that she got outed

I LIKE that Alan will get single digits now. What a fucking hypocrite. What's he going to do, STONE HER?

[Kipepeo]

23. he wasn't clueless

in her public blog she talked about how he thought of her as an "evil dyke" and she feared he wasn't going to pay for her college...

[DougieZero]

6. I liked her anti-Bush button

in one of the pics floating around.

YOU'R FIRED!

7. Link? nt

10. Atrios and Daily Kos both had the story.

scroll down when you get there--the stories are from earlier today

11. Is it too soon

to expect that this will help Alan Keyes into the next top 10 Conservative Idiots list?

(FWIW, our own anti-homosexual activist Lon Mabon here in Oregon was a big Keyes supporter in the previous Republican primary.)

13. I wouldn't even touch it.

The only thing I would do is keep tabs on what Keyes says about anyone in similiar circumstances.

[arcos]

18. this is what Keyes said...

Alan Keyes, September 1, 2004:

But as I said to someone the other day, if my own daughter were a homosexual or a lesbian, I would love my daughter, but I would tell my daughter that she was in sin. And I would love her and pray for her and try to open her heart to the truth of God's intention for her life. That's what I would do.

14. What are you all talking about?

ARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!! I hate when people do this!!!!!

15. A link

16. I know this is an old photo

Keyes has a very handsome family.

It seems like she's the only girl.

[Lex]

17. Newer photos.

[RoyalWickedness]

19. Handsome, indeed

One word: milkman!

20. If he handles this right, it could help his campaign.

It might get him into the 30s, anyway, as at least some stray Republicans come back into the fold. But he won't handle it right, in all probability. Just too much of a nutcase ideologue.

[Blue-Jay]

22. His daughter is a (GASP!) "Selfish hedonist"?!?!?!

Pics:







The last pic is labeled "dirtyqueers" on her site!

[umtalal]

28. She looks lovely. What is his problem with her sexuality??

[umtalal]

24. I think we should leave the kid out of it. She has enough to deal with w/

Dr. Strangelove as her father.

[arcos]

25. Heads up: Keyes will address the controversy tonight

Hobbled
<snip>

Alan Keyes himself is supposed to be addressing the daughter issue tonight at a south suburban event. So, you can point your browsers at the big media pages from then on.

26. huh Keyes has a lesbian daughter?

[Kipepeo]

27. on the campaign trail

[hippiegranny]

33. she's darling

looove her little rainbow purse!

[ruggerson]

36. ROFL /nt

[Freddie Stubbs]

29. Could be another hoax

It is amazing how quickly some people forget the events of the last few weeks.

[arcos]

31. no, it doesn't seem to be one...

read what the Chillinois blog is saying, see the pictures, etc...

[jonnyblitz]

30. fair game for what? n/t

[Blue-Jay]

35. *She's* not fair game, Jonny.

She's just fine. Her dad, on the other hand, should be forced to address his own homophopic comments. Face it, if Lynn Cheney is a selfish hedonist (his words), what does that make his own daughter?

I don't care what she is, personally. HE is the one that made homosexuality an issue, and he should address it again.
