Dem Gay Stud Studd Dead

Gerry Studds, the Dem who's page transgressions makes Mark Foley look like a choir boy, is dead.

Unlike Foley, Studds had sex with his boy-page; unlike Foley, Studds did not resign. Instead, Studds refused to apologize and even called a press conference in which he appeard with the page and declared they were consenting "adults" -- even though one of them was 17.

The Dems continued to re-elect Studds until he retired from Congress 13 years later, in 1996.

He was 69.

Let's see if Kennedy and Kerry show up for his funeral.
