Prompted by a panel discussion that’s going down tonight (sorry, poor choice of words) at the Prince, Will Bunch attacks the question as if he’s putting out a fire. A hilarious, flaming fire, with lots of quotes from people who desperately want to figure out if Lincoln was gay or not.

But Percy, who is gay, is not a Lincoln specialist, though he has long campaigned for “outing” public officials in high positions accused of denying rights to homosexuals. He even co-authored a book in 1994 called “Outing: Shattering the Conspiracy of Silence” and has said he’ll pay $10,000 to anyone who outs an American Catholic bishop or a top-ranked general.

Newsflash, Percy: Anything involving a uniform is, in fact, kind of gay.
