Meet Maya Keyes, the 19 year old daugher of virulently anti-gay Illinois candidate for U.S Senate, Alan Keyes. Maya's blog is Xmisled0youthX, where she is pictured making out with another girl and openly writes about being a lesbian. Xmisled0youthX is also known as Dangerousanjul, whose Yahoo profile also describes her as a 19 year old named Maya. On the KeyesForSenate2004 Yahoo Group, Dangerousanjul idenitifies herself as Maya Keyes, and many people on the group confirm Dangerousanjul is the daughter of Dr. Alan Keyes.
Modern Veterbrate shares some compelling lesbionic excerpts from Maya's blog. Alan Keyes had a lot of advice for Vice President Dick Cheney regarding his lesbian daughter. If his own daughter is a lesbian, that makes the behavior of Alan Keyes that much more disgraceful.
"If my daughter were a lesbian, I'd look at her and say, `That is a relationship that is based on selfish hedonism.' I would also tell my daughter that it's a sin, and she needs to pray to the Lord God to help her to deal with that sin."
[Alan Keyes - Chicago Tribune - 08-31-04]
UPDATE 1:37PM: Maya has now made private all the links from here to her blog entries. She has also deleted her Yahoo account, but that doesn't delete the posts made to the Keyes For Senate 2004 list. Take a look at them and her signature file.
UPDATE 1:42PM: Because of an apparent barage of hits, the Yahoo Group can no longer display Keyes For Senate 2004 messages "because this group has exceeded its download limit." Can you say "media frenzy?"
