I don't see where Spencer called Hillary a lesbian.

In an interview with a Westchester County, N.Y., newspaper, John Spencer suggested the Senate incumbent and Democratic star is a lesbian, the New York Times reported.

A columnist for the paper, the Journal News, said that Spencer made the insinuation last week in a telephone interview in response to a question about whether he would attempt to portray Clinton as a liberal in two scheduled debates.

"He said words to the effect of, 'Well, you know me, words slip out, but I won't call her a lesbian or anything,'" Phil Reisman, the columnist, told the Times. "He was definitely joking -- he laughed after he said it."

Which has little to do with whether Spencer called her one or not.

Judging by the context quoted i don't think he did.

Even if he did, I am not sure it matters much. NY voters are more liberal on such issues, are they not?

Don't know if it matters to NY York voters or not. Not even sure if it matters to NY'ers when the NYTimes gets it wrong.

And thats a shame.

NY Times getting it wrong is whole lots better than POTUS doing it and HE does it all the time.

So you don't mind when the press makes it up as they go along?

Not as much as I do the Pres doing it. They are more likely to get it correct. They dont live in a fantasy world like He does.
