Leave Gene alone!

Matthew over at Billy Ockham beat me to it.

Why can't they just leave poor Gene Robinson alone? Where is Chris Crocker when we need him:

How friggin' dare anyone out there talk about Gene being the Gay Bishop after all he's been through. He went through a divorce. He has children. He was burdened with those awful marriage vows, and the vows he took as a priest.

They made him a bishop, which he never, ever wanted. He never wanted anyone to know he was gay, but they made him say it. All he wanted was to be a simple country bishop. And now he's going through a battle to be accepted at Lambeth. He's trying to avoid anyone seeing him in the Marketplace there and talking to him and making him say he's gay. And they're forcing him to take a world tour outside his diocese to talk about being the Gay Bishop.

All you people at the New York Times (and Time and Newsweek and Episcopal Life and Anglican blogs . . . ) care about is readers and making money off of him as the Gay Bishop.

HE'S A HUMAN!! He hasn't been able to be a country bishop or priest for years. He can't even spend time in his diocese because all you people want is more, more, more, gay, gay, gay bishop---LEAVE HIM ALONE. You're lucky he's even done press availabilities and book signings and TV interviews and book tours and gay award ceremonies and parades and magazine articles and rallies for you bastards.

LEAVE GENE ALONE!!. . . PLEASE.

Is it professional to publicly bash a bishop who is going through a hard time and to keep calling attention to him?

Leave Gene Alone Please . . . Leave Gene Robinson alone . . . right now . . . I MEAN IT.

Anyone that has a problem with him you deal with me, because he is not well right now.

LEAVE HIM ALONE!
