Ed Koch: 1924-2013

"What do I care? I'm 73 years old. I find it fascinating that people are interested in my sex life at age 73. It's rather complimentary! But as I say in my book, my answer to questions on this subject is simply "Fuck off." There have to be some private matters left."

Lots of right-wing gayers (Kramer, Sullivan et al) and the usual apolitical buffoons are pretending to be angry about Ed Koch not coming out - in the 70s when no US politician was out. *
There are lots of things to hate about Ed Koch - a pro-Zionist, anti-liberal, and Republican in all but name - but this is rather spectacularly missing the point.

* Harvey Milk - and a few others - despite the hype, was a lowly local councillor, so don't write in.

    More on politicians: Ontario's newest Premier is Kathleen Wynne, an openly lesbian member of The United Church. It's on wiki, therefore true. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kathleen_Wynne

      He's a difficult to like miserable cunt, I will say that. But did you really just casually brush aside his AIDS activism (that bastion of the Right) and very vocal evisceration of the right wing Reagan administration etc?!

      Anyhow, no, the burden is on YOU to support your assertion; not me -- merely an innocent bystander in your hit and run clown car approach to journalism ...or whatever it is you do ;p

      Seriously tho, any facts, links or whatever supporting your claim would be welcomed gratefully and open-mindedly. Or is showing your workings out too infa dig for you, my dear?
