Here's how to make sense of the family-values people: They disapprove of (a) public displays of deviancy from a rigid heterosexual, procreational-sex-only standpoint and (b) the publication of deviant behavior among their own, who are forgiven in advance because they accept Christ blah blah blah. We're lucky they stop short of blaming Darwin and the Beatles for Jeff Gannon.
Further, see this well-written analysis for tracing connections between the closeted life and the conservative passion for secrecy. In the end, I'm convinced that conservatives believe in and endorse, as explicitly as they can, the double standard.

Yes, but I might be up for blaming the monumentally insipid Sir Paul McCartney for extraordinary rendition.
