PORNOGRAPHY, PEDERASTY, AND POLITICS –

One of the by-laws of this site is that obscenity and sexual deviance not be posted, but I do want to write something about recent events and the Republican Party. I’ll try not to use four-letter words – maybe that will be OK.

The Republican (Mark Foley) who led the passage of a bill to prosecute pedophiles using the internet has been, er, exposed for writing salacious messages through electronic means to Pages in Congress, young males, about 16 years old. Not only “What are you wearing?” “Do you find me sexy?” but “I would like to have you naked and grab your penis,” or something like that. He resigned as a result, recently saying through his attorney “I was molested by a clergyman between the ages of 13 and 15,” (him, not the clergyman). Oh yes, he is now in treatment for alcoholism and can’t be reached. Of course, he is responsible for his actions, whether drunk or not.

We have already discussed the statements of the son of an ex-football coach and “Mukaka,” so let’s move on.

Dennis Hastert, Speaker of the House and thus third in line to the Presidency, an ex-wrestling coach, apparently knew about this at least a year ago but hushed it up to help Republican maintain control of congress. Now many think he should resign, but why not simply vote him out of office as well? Besides, he is very overweight and has trouble seeing.

Shakespeare has a line for these “Family Values” “God Fearing” types: “Methinks the lady doth protest too much.”

By the way, I have several medals for wrestling, but I am not likely to be President, ever.
