Stephen Laffey, the mayor of Cranston Rhode Island, who is now a candidate for the Republican nomination for a U.S. Senate seat in Rhode Island, recently stated that he regretted writing homophobic columns for his college newspaper some 20 years ago. He goes on to say that he is sorry he had written the “sophomoric political satire” and that the columns didn’t reflect his views “… not now, nor then, or ever.”
That is almost as stupid as the famous “yes, but I didn’t inhale” comment we heard from our President a few years back. Come on Stephen, be a big boy and face your past. Either that or we are left to beleive that you are a man that makes statements he doesn’t mean, which leaves us unable to believe anything you say.
