Yesterday The Fold Blog did some quick time reporting on a prominent conservative, Christian Right, Republican who innocently took a gay prostitute he had rented online to Europe for a whirlwind trip. It's really no big deal. That's the thing to do now for anti-gay Republicans. Go on gay escort service websites and rent you a boy to take on lucrative trips. All the fluff types are doing it these days. What disappointed me about the whole thing is George Rekers, the man who is the focus of the whole story, admitted he had taken a male along with him on the trip but did so because he recently had surgery and needed someone to carry his luggage. No where in yesterday's article did Reker say anything about Jesus. And being a Christian this upsets me.
Today, however, Reker finally tells us that he rented the male escort to take to Europe so he could lovingly witness to him the saving message of Jesus Christ. Thank you Pastor Reker. Amen. Nothing to see here people. Lets move on. Saving souls even on vacation. Sainthood anyone?
