What does GOP Senate takeover mean for LGBT issues?
By CHRIS JOHNSON
cjohnson@washblade.com
When the polls closed on Tuesday, the Republican takeover of the U.S. Senate made clear that advancement of LGBT
rights in Congress is a lot more complicated if not totally on ice.
Shortly after 11:20 p.m., the Associated Press reported Republicans won control of the Senate presumably clearing
the way for Sen. Mitch McConnell to become Senate Majority Leader by picking up seats in Iowa, North Carolina,
Colorado, Arkansas, West Virginia, Montana and South Dakota. Additionally, Republicans picked up seats in the House.
Gregory T. Angelo, executive director of the Log Cabin Republicans, said the GOP gains will be a test for LGBT groups
on whether theyre willing to work in a bipartisan fashionin the 114th Congress.
This is really a time of choosing for LGBT advocates on the left, Angelo said. Do you support the left agenda, or

The new makeup of Congress, with Republicans rmly in control of both chambers, surely means that the Employment
Non-Discrimination Act is dead for the
foreseeable future, despite calls by some
to attach the measure to another legislative vehicle. And although theres no appetite for an anti-gay amendment barring
marriage equality, we will likely see eorts
by some Republicans to advance a federal
religious exemption bill that would allow
ocials to opt out of ociating same-sex
marriages or even enable businesses to
refuse service to gay couples.
Already, the National Organization for
Marriage has announced plans for an anti-gay marriage march next year. In one
night, we went from talk of a post-gay
world back to playing defense in many
parts of the country.
The silver lining is that LGBT issues
didnt play a prominent role in many
races. Marriage emerged in some red
states, like Georgia, but Republican candidates largely waged savvy campaigns focused on the economy and avoided being
drawn into ghts over social issues.
In Maryland, Republican victor Larry
Hogan said he had evolved on marriage, but noted he opposes the states
new transgender rights law that took ef-

VIEWPOINT
When Steve Clemons of The Atlantic invited me to the Washington Ideas Forum that
began Oct. 29, I looked at the schedule and
quipped, Its an impressive lineup for the
morning after the High Heel Race! Needless to say, the Secretaries of State and Defense, National Security Adviser, and corporate titans did not run down 17th Street in
drag that Tuesday night. You could, however, catch a faux Michelle Obama, complete
with Secret Service detail and a basket with
a turnip to promote a healthy diet.
In 1991, D.C. police rioted against the
benign revelers who had taken over
the street that included the block subsequently named Frank Kameny Way.
Those street signs, and the crowds lining
the sidewalks for what has become an
annual Halloween tradition, are a small
testament to the gay communitys victory.
I remember several members of the
Gay Activists Alliance riding in Kamenys
car on an autumn night in 1981 after Congress vetoed our rst attempt to repeal
the Districts sodomy law. My colleague
Tom Chorlton was ranting about how
San Franciscos Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence were setting back our cause. I said
they were funny and to lighten up.
Tom and Frank are gone. I was the new
kid in town back then, when our struggles
were mostly defensive and few dreamed
of reaching for the gold ring of marriage.
At one session of the 2014 Ideas Forum,
Jonathan Capehart of The Washington
Post interviewed marriage equality attorneys Evan Wolfson and Ted Olson. Their
amicable interplay showed no trace of
the ap over Jo Beckers book Forcing the
Spring, which inated Olsons role in the
movement and gave short shrift to Wolfson, Mary Bonauto, Roberta Kaplan and
others. The struggle goes on, and more
war stories lie ahead.
sized replica of Noahs Ark currently under construction allows visitors to have
fun while they learn scripture.
The Creation Museum features a Dino-
COMMUNIKATE
suit college after Our Lady of Psychological Warfare High School. After 12 years
of a few young, bright nuns and a lot of
old, dim, crazy ones, I was ready for an
saur Den with a world-class Allosaurus dinosaur skeleton, Dr. Crawleys Insectorium,
a petting zoo with a zonkey, a zorse and
wallabies, and a two-hour park zip-line tour,
the largest in the tri-state area. The park brochure is a little vague on the zonkey-zorsescripture-learning connection. In interviews,
Rev. Hams motivation seems fueled by a
frankly unchristian resentment toward the
smarty-pants, evolutionists at the Smithsonian who have lots of dinosaurs.
If ticket sales do falter, I worry Rev.
Ham might start a new attraction, The
Pope Francis Slapping Booth.

VIEWPOINT
With so many same-sex couples marrying, and the rest of us, queer and straight,
going to their weddings, its easy to think
that coming out not only has little or no
news value but is almost pass.
With openly LGBT people serving in
the military and in Congress; more out
actors and celebs than you can count;
several well-known gay and lesbian news
anchors; and even a few openly queer
sports and religious gures its tempting to wonder if the big reveal still has
much impact. Until, that is, the head of
al orientation and many of his Apple colleagues knew he was gay, Cook said in his
Bloomberg essay. Of course, Ive had
the good fortune to work at a company
that ... knows it can only ourish when
you embrace peoples dierences, he
wrote. Not everyone is so lucky.
Though hed never denied his sexual
orientation, he hadnt, until now, publicly
come out, Cook noted in the piece. So let
me be clear, he wrote, Im proud to be
gay, and I consider being gay among the
greatest gifts God has given me.
Cook doesnt claim to be an activist, and
like so many of us queer or hetero, hed
rather not have his professional and personal life reduced to his sexual orientation. In addition to being gay, Cook wrote,
Im an engineer, an uncle, a nature lover,
a tness nut, a son of the South, a sports
fanatic, and many other things.
But, If hearing that the CEO of Apple is
gay can help someone struggling to come
to terms with who he or she is, or bring
comfort to anyone who feels alone, or
inspire people to insist on their equality,
then its worth the trade-o with my own

When the Gay Softball World Series was in Washington last year, it was a
mammoth undertaking.
About 5,000 attendees from 159 teams came from all over the U.S. and
Canada for that week in August and in addition to all the fun and games,
the organizing group raised more than $36,000 it gave to the North American
Gay Amateur Athletic Alliance, Whitman-Walker Health, the D.C. Center and
several other local LGBT charities.
For his eorts as co-director of the event, Wayne Williams is being honored
Saturday at A Night of Champions: a Benet for the Team D.C. College
Scholarship Program at the Renaissance Hotel (999 9th St., N.W.) starting
with a cocktail hour and silent auction at 6 p.m. Tickets are $100. Visit teamdc.
org for information.
Team D.C. ocials said Williams deserves recognition for leading a
dedicated group of volunteers from the CAPS League to a successful weeklong tournament that many considered the best to date.
Williams, a 39-year-old Knightdale, N.C., native, works by day as senior
vice president of Business Finance Group, a community-based non-prot
that nances commercial property for small business owners. He came to
Washington 18 years ago with a former partner.
Williams lives in Capitol Hill with Boris, a golden retriever, and Chase, a
yellow lab. Williams enjoys softball, pool, travel and spending time with
friends in his free time.

ADVICE
MICHAEL,
My partner Grant and I were together
40 years before he died last February.
Grant was 18 years older than I am. He
had been incapacitated for some time
and I retired early to take care of him 247. I was with him when he passed away
and I knew in my heart that he loved me
and that he was at peace, not in some
uncaring nursing home.
Fast-forward a few months: Wanting
a new relationship, Ive joined some
dating sites. All the men I come across
are either looking for a one-night stand,
live in another state if they are seeking
a relationship or want someone much
younger than I. One 50 year old actually
wrote me, Youre too old for me, Gramps!
Although Im 65, I feel like Im 30. I know
I have a lot to give another guy and am
eager to nd someone to be with. But Ive
been out of the loop so long, I dont know
how to proceed. And I wonder if its even
possible to meet a single guy around my
age with the same intentions.
MICHAEL REPLIES:
Dont rush trying to ll Grants shoes
too quickly.
After losing a partner to death or a
breakup, many people hurry to ll the
huge empty space in their lives. Especially
as we get older and have a sense of time
passing and our own mortality, its easy to
feel a sense of panic and urgency to nd
someone new before its too late.
Give yourself time. You cannot set a
deadline to nish grieving and you cannot
rush healing. Your view that every online
guy is unsuitable is a tip-o that you have
reservations about moving forward and
may not yet be ready to start dating again.
Keep in mind that losing a spouse,
especially when you have been together

Turing doc
Codebreaker still
enjoying success
Out lmmaker Patrick Sammon, whose 2011 docudrama Codebreaker told
the story of Alan Turings life, says he heard a big-screen Hollywood adaptation
was planned on Turing but says the two projects are dierent enough that
theres no substantial overlap or conict of interest.
I dont see it as competition at all, Sammon, president of Story Center
Productions, a documentary production company based in Washington, says.
The reality is that any Hollywood version tends to stray from the historical
facts so well see what happens. With Imitation Game, hopefully, you know,
theyll stick mostly to the facts and Im sure the message of Turings life will be
conveyed. The bottom line is I see it as very complementary and the distribution
companies are very excited. They think Imitation Game will only increase
interest in Codebreaker and thats often the case with a documentary when
a Hollywood feature lm gets made. People who see it are more inclined to
do some digging so it has the potential to draw more people to Codebreaker.
Although Sammons 62-minute work was shown on TV in the U.K. and has
been available on DVD and Netix after a 2012 U.S. theatrical release, Sammon
has been hosting screenings heavily ever since. Hes had 10 in the last six weeks
and has more planned. His lm has played in about 20 countries and been
picked up as far away as China, Australia and New Zealand.
I had hoped it would have a little bit of a shelf life because I thought the story
was timeless, he says. Even though its been out awhile, its not a dated story
and theres always someone whos new to the Alan Turing story.
