Still With That Old Bullshit?

It's Friday, I am tired, and I am sick of this bullshit: House Speaker John Boehner’s (R-Etro) is dragging out that old claim that homosexuality is a choice.

Oh, do go to hell, Boehner. That idea has so thoroughly been discredited it's really embarrassing you're still using it.

Nonetheless, from a recent brief by Boehner's Bipartisan Legal Advisory Group:

According to multiple studies, a high number of persons who experience sexual attraction to members of the same sex early in their adult lives later cease to experience such attraction.

(And of course, the study the brief cites doesn't actually say that. Whoops!)

I guess, like Hollywood, Boehner is out of new ideas, too.
