Alan Keyes is Having a Bad Day

Alan Keyes' 19-year old daughter, Maya Marcel-Keyes, is making her first public appearance as a gay activist today in front of the Maryland State House. Alan must be so proud!

Last summer her father, a conservative pundit and frequent Republican candidate, caused a stir during the Republican convention by labeling Vice President Dick Cheney's lesbian daughter a sinner and calling homosexuality "selfish hedonism."

[...]

Marcel-Keyes told the Post her parents have thrown her out of the house, stopped speaking to her and refuse to pay for college because she is gay. She said she loves her parents.


But then I saw this AP photo, and I think, Alan might have been bitten by the gay bug too. Curious, how he's admiring that fella's be-hind. I think he's about to pounce.
