Here's a surprise from a Father's Day interview with Sen. Trent Lott (R-Miss.) in the New York Times Magazine. (You may recall that the former Senate majority leader once famously compared homosexuality with alcoholism and kleptomania.). Here's the excerpt:
[final question]
Q: How do you feel about gay men adopting and raising children?
Lott: It's so important that children have parents or family that love them. There are a lot of adopted children who have loving parents, and it comes in different ways with different people in different states.
Don't know if there was any more context to this statement than
the Times is providing. But from Lott, it's a startling
sentiment.
