Aug. 9th, 2007 04:24 pmWant to keep up with all the latest Republican sex scandals, but you find things like work and social life getting in the way? Then do I have the website for you! A handy dandy list of which member of the GOP is sticking his hoo-haw where it don't belong.
Also, A Man from Nantucket Says:
Look, I’m being (mostly) serious here: this whole thing, this “oh, look, another Republican caught doing the very thing they’re famous for denouncing in rhetoric or legislation” thing, is so unbelievably trite, so fucking predictable now, that from this point on, whenever I hear a reference to family values or anything homophobic from one of them, my instant decoder is going to render it as “My god, it’s so stuffy in this closet, I can’t breathe, LET ME OUT”. (See also: Ted Haggard’s infamous appearance in the documentary Jesus Camp).
With that in mind - I really think we need to reexamine all that weird rhetoric about how legalizing gay marriage would lead inexorably to bestiality and marrying kitchen appliances, etc. I mean, at this point, I seriously, seriously would not be surprised at all if some Republican ended up in the news getting buckshot removed from his ass after a farmer saw him raping his prize hog, or for having to get his cock treated for burns after accidentally depressing the lever while fucking his toaster. These people have been trying to tell us something with all these bizarre analogies, and we’ve been too busy laughing ourselves hysterical to hear their cries for help!
It’s understandable, though, because this shit is funnier than hell. (”I’m bulimic, but I don’t like sticking my finger down my throat!” was my favorite alternative excuse.)
