History lesson: Frank Rich's
essay about gays inhabiting the conservative movement discussed some earlier, 60's era, personalities and events. But somewhat surprisingly, he doesn't mention
Bill James Hargis, who was a major figure in Christian circles, politically active, and very conservative. Turned out to be bisexual.

If I'm recalling the correct column, I believe Rich closed his column a couple of weeks ago discussing the infamous Billy James Hargis (now deceased I believe). I guess Rich didn't see any reason to pile on.
