Anybody know what the hell this means? An exchange between Barney Frank and Mary Matalin on Crossfire.

FRANK...Bill Clinton deserves a lot of credit for being the first president to appoint people who were openly gay and lesbian. And I'm afraid that George Bush is just going to leave us out of his diversity mix; but I am glad he's doing what he's doing.

MATALIN: Well, you know the camp -- in the campaign, there was a very broad and open unity reach out to the gay and lesbian community.

FRANK: Well, that's simply not true, Mary. No, that wasn't true.

MATALIN: No, it simply is true because I was a part of it.

FRANK: Well, this is a new confession from you that I hadn't expected. I take you as diverse, but as a lesbian I wasn't ready, yet, to accept you...

MATALIN: Lipstick -- I'm an official lipstick lesbian
