Gay Republicans Focus of Logo Documentary
I recently attented a birthday party at iCandy in West Hollywood for a friend of mine, known around the Web as Boi From Troy, who is gay and is a Republican! So, I met lots of other gay Republicans and it was interesting to talk to many of them about their politics and how their party platform squared with their personal lives. It made for a very interesting evening!
So, I'm very interested in checking out the documentary "The Elephant in the Room" which airs on MTV's Logo channel on Sunday, Aug. 20 at 7:30 p.m. and again on Wednesday, Aug. 23 at 8:30 p.m.
"Elephant" follows three gay Republicanswho are all very different from each other and explores how their political beliefs inform their lives. They are: Ellen, a gun-shooting sugar farmer who wants to help Katrina survivors; Ted, a Log Cabin Republican who works with Democrats to block a gay marriage ban in Texas; and Greg (pictured with Pres. Bush), who has trouble finding a date to a gay wedding in Hawaii because he is a Republican.



Greg Hernandez has covered the entertainment industry for the Daily
News since 2001. He's considered a bit odd by some for his obsession
with box office numbers, has been known to camp out near the kitchen
at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never
seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.
Comments
I can really use this documentary at Straight4Sion.com -- anything that can help explain Gay Republicanism is sorely needed.
