Luna, Reporting on the Hard-Hitting Issues

I'm still glued to the Katrina Koverage (tm Wonkette) and the devastation, but I gotta talk about something incredibly shallow for a sec.

How am I the last person in the world who didn't know Anderson Cooper was - in the words of Wikipedia - "generally known to be gay"?!? Wow, I have the worst gaydar ever.

And I'm devastated I missed this interaction:
Interview with Jerry Falwell, 29 November 2004:

COOPER: But there are a lot of gay families out there, Reverend Falwell, there are a lot of gay families out there. I think there are like a million kids being raised by gay parents who say that if you want to protect families, you know, civil unions will give inheritance rights, will give Social Security, survivor benefits rights to...

FALWELL: Anderson, that's all a red herring. If you want to leave something to your cat, you can do that in your will...

COOPER: It's not a red herring. That's simply not true. It's not true. You know we [emphasis ours] pay taxes.

Awwwww! Go Anderson.
