They obviously could not be trusted with the info. All of the proper oversight committees were notified and briefed. J.

"None of my Congressional Reps were notified" My guess is that is because your reps are not on our side.

Well you have now been notified that deviate behavior is not condoned at this hotel. Yuk.... Gay kiss in pool causes stir in Mexico By Greg Brosnan MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - A gay kiss in a swimming pool, which two men say got them thrown out of a luxury hotel, has caused a stir in traditionally macho Mexico, where open displays of homosexuality are frowned upon. Gerardo Eliud and his partner, Samir Habdu, told police in Los Cabos, a plush beach resort city popular with U.S. tourists, that security guards beat them up and threw them into the street with their luggage after spotting them kissing in the hotel pool in December. But when leftist deputies demanded an investigation into the incident in Congress this week, they were angrily shouted down by legislators from other parties who argued the subject was unfit for discussion in the chamber. The ruckus highlights the discomfort about homosexuality in this predominantly Catholic country, despite recent openness toward gays in some areas. "It is a question of profound conservatism, intolerance and backwardness," Party of the Democratic Revolution deputy Inti Munoz said of the deputies' reaction. Congress voted that the issue was not urgent and shelved it in a commission for analysis. Eliud, a 27-year-old public relations officer who lives with 24-year-old air steward Habdu in Mexico City, said he and his partner only shared a discreet peck. "It was a two-second kiss, we didn't even touch lips," he said, adding that the couple chose the Hotel Presidente InterContinental because of the stated gay-friendly policy of its parent company. A spokesman for the hotel said it had documents and witness statements proving the couple's version of the events was false. He insisted the hotel was gay-friendly and said the pair was thrown out for "making inappropriate advances at other guests." today.reuters.com The hotel in Los Cabos, a magnet for foreign yachters and golfers, pays British group InterContinental Hotels Group Plc, to use its brand
