Say what you will about the Republican Party's evangelical base. No one can deny their level of conviction for self-righteous politics, even when it requires holding senior citizens hostage or flushing their own family down the toilet.
Her father, who was on the West Coast giving speeches this week, issued only a terse statement about his daughter's coming out. "My daughter is an adult, and she is responsible for her own actions," it read. "What she chooses to do has nothing to do with my work or political activities."Keyes drew national attention during the Republican National Convention last year when he called homosexuality an act of "sexual hedonism." Asked later if Vice President Dick Cheney's lesbian daughter, Mary, is a selfish hedonist, Keyes answered that she is.
A day after that interview, Keyes defended his statements, saying he would feel the same about his own daughter, although he wasn't questioned about her at the time.
Marcel-Keyes said yesterday that she was forced last week to move out of Keyes' Chicago apartment because of her sexual orientation and left-wing political activism.
Nevertheless, she said, "I love my parents very much, and they love me."
