Two Married Anti-Gay Tea Party Lawmakers Caught In Affair Blame Gays And The GOP
A recording of State Rep. Todd Courser planning to coverup his affair with his fellow Tea Party Michigan Republican Rep. Cindy Gamrat has surfaced. Both are married and have children. Both oppose the Supreme Court’s ruling making it legal for same-sex couples to marry nationwide.
Courser instructs aide Ben Graham to send an anonymous mass email to Republicans that would accuse Courser of paying for sex with a man behind a Lansing, Michigan nightclub to conceal his relationship with Gamrat.
Courser said in one of the recordings that the email was designed to create “a complete smear campaign” of exaggerated, false claims about him and Gamrat so a public revelation about the legislators’ relationship would seem “mild by comparison.”
“It will make anything else that comes out after that — that isn’t a video — mundane, tame by comparison,” Courser, a married father of four, told aide Ben Graham.
The Detroit News reports:
Interviews with former House employees and the recordings show freshman lawmakers Courser and Gamrat, R-Plainwell, used their taxpayer-funded offices to maintain and cover up their relationship. Courser, 43, and Gamrat, 42, rose from the ranks of tea party activism, battled establishment Republicans to win seats in the House last year and formed their own legislative coalition…
The pair are socially conservative legislators who often invoke their Christian faith in pursuit of new legislation governing gun rights, abortion and marriage. Their political alliance dates back to Courser’s unsuccessful 2013 race for Michigan Republican Party chairman when Gamrat ran as his vice chairwoman.
