Old comments

I have somehow managed to refrain from calling Kruger an idiot in the article.Countmippipopolous 04:38, 8 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You deserve a medal for that. Apparently you gotta be an idiot to be elected these days. I doubt the bill will pass but if it does, then what else should we ban? Oh right, how about we ban driving all together. Nothing worse than legislating common sense and creating a police state.

Orientation

According to the NYT:

He has also faced unusually intense criticism from gay rights activists for his 2009 vote against a Senate bill legalizing same-sex marriage. Activists traveled last year to the Turano residence and the Brooklyn home of Mr. Kruger's sister, protesting loudly and saying Mr. Kruger himself was gay. Mr. Kruger has said he is not gay.
- Graft Charges Depict Senator's Lavish Lifestyle; [Metropolitan Desk] NICHOLAS CONFESSORE and MICHAEL BARBARO. New York Times. (Late Edition (East Coast)). New York, N.Y.: Mar 11, 2011. pg. A.1

If the accusations are significant then we can report that Kruger has accused of being a closeted gay man, but we cannot say he is gay until he makes that assertion himself. Will Beback talk 06:14, 12 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
