McCain, clearly in poor health, limits access to health records for both himself and Gov. Palin. Why is the American media so lax in demanding better? We have a right to know more. We have a need for access and accountability.

![Baptist Ministers gay sex scandal wrecks GOP agenda
[Washington, D.C.] Another conservative sex scandal unfolds to disprove conservative morality values and instead affirm hypocrisy as an underlying conservative principle. How will vehemently anti-gay Family Research Council respond to the embarrassing disclosure that founder and Baptist minister George Rekers rented a male prostitute from Rentboy for a 10-day European adventure? MSNBCs Rachel Maddow explains how the scandal impacts American society. Additionally, watch for media bias. How well did the mainstream media cover this event and going forward how will media handle Tony Perkins and the Family Research Council after founding-member George Rekers went to Rentboy for the services of a 20-year-old male prostitute including sexual massages? #
More from the Miami Herald: Professor George, as he styles himself on his website, ProfessorGeorge.com , offers a vaguely plausible (alcohol might help) explanation. He didnt procure the services of a 20-year-old male prostitute to join him on a 10-day-jaunt through England and Spain for purposes of prostitution. ``Following medical advice Professor George Rekers requires an assistant to lift his luggage in his travels because of an ongoing condition following surgery. George Rekers was paid handsomely by Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum ($60,900) and the state of Arkansas ($60,000), to flog gay men and women as unfit parents. Particularly adoptive parents. As a bonus, at no extra charge, Rekers testified in Miami-Dade Circuit Court that he also considered American Indians to be in the same risky category. Rekers, 61, of North Miami, a Baptist minister and a retired professor of behavior science, has long provided academic cover for the Christian rights anti-gay agenda. Hes written books, delivered lectures and provided pithy quotes that intimate a scientific basis for opposition to gay adoption and gay marriage. Rekers credibility had already suffered when Circuit Judge Cindy Lederman, tossing Floridas anti-gay adoption law in 2008, found ``Dr. Rekers beliefs are motivated by his strong ideological and theological convictions that are not consistent with the science. The judge added that ``the court can not consider his testimony to be credible nor worthy of forming the basis of public policy. Professor George, youve lighted the way for debauching phonies everywhere. #
