AIDS Activist Says George Washington And The Founding Fathers Were Gay

A big part of being a homosexual is not living in reality: thinking it’s normal for people of the same gender to have sex, believing gay marriage is the same thing as traditional marriage…Then there’s the revisionist history. In order to legitimize their perverted lifestyle choice, many LGBTs are convinced that literally everyone in history was gay. In fact, an AIDS activist just put out a book in which he claims George Washington and most of the Founding Fathers were queer.
The American People: Volume 1; Search For My Heart by gay dude Larry Kramer is so far-fetched the publisher had no choice but to list it as fiction. However, the author insists it is a history book. Think of it like gay fan-fiction in which important historical figures are recast as homosexuals.
The Huffington Post gives us a glimpse into this twisted rewriting of history:
In The American People, Kramer describes George Washington as a man who had sex with men — a “big queen,” he said in an interview — and writes the same of Alexander Hamilton, who “was in love with George,” Ben Franklin, Andrew Jackson, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan…
But it wasn’t just the great men who founded and shaped our nation that were gay according to Kramer, America was fruity from day one:
Historic Jamestown was a hotbed of gay sex, Kramer writes, partly because the settlement for a long time only included men.
Kramer is also convinced that the Lincoln assassination was intertwined with seamy homosexual activity:
And not only did Abraham Lincoln have intimate affairs with men – a thesis that was seen as far-fetched a number of years ago, but which more historians now support – but, Kramer writes, Lincoln assassin John Wilkes Booth was queer, too, and Joshua Speed, thought to be Lincoln’s lover, was a “hustler” as well as “gift” from Booth.
The author is terribly upset that the recent Lincoln biopic didn’t portray the Great Emancipator as a gay man. I know, it’s hard to believe producers didn’t include a bathhouse scene or show Lincoln on ecstasy dancing shirtless in a club.
As for George Washington, Kramer figures he was gay because he liked to decorate and plan military maneuvers:
“In the case of Washington, he was a big queen, basically,” Kramer said. “He decorated everything. He designed all the uniforms, the buttons. The correspondence exists with all the dealers he dealt with in England to make everything. And then there was a man called Baron von Steuben, who was German, who designed all the maneuvers for all the troops of all the great armies in Europe. And he kept getting thrown out after he made the armies real – like Rockettes [laughs]. He got kicked out and he came to George. And he and George hit it off like nobody’s business.”
And this stupidity just keeps going:
“George put him to work right away and they designed all these maneuvers and it was like putting on show,” Kramer said. “That’s for starters. And there’s no question, that Alex [Alexander Hamilton], really– whether it was a father/son thing — that Alex was very much in love with him. And Alex Hamilton was very handsome. And George was much older. And that’s been written about. There was a mutual attraction between them…Hamilton also had a young lover, a fellow officer, John Laurens is his name.”
If they handed out a Nobel Prize for bullsh*t, Kramer would be a shoe in. Of course he can’t back any of his claims up with scholarly evidence because it’s simply not true. That’s why his publisher is calling this abomination a “novel” and not a work of non-fiction. Kramer’s book is nothing more than a gay pornographic fantasy.
