And I hear this in my head in Bill Maher's voice

New rule! Men who want to pass new laws governing abortion must prove that someone still wants to have sex with them before doing so.

I do think you are onto something. I think the guys screaming the loudest about women and procreation are NOT getting laid, and by gawds, if they can't have all the sex they want, neither can anyone else!

I dunno, some of these guys are pretty rich and well-connected and you know what they say about the only reliable aphrodisiac.

Or is the intent to get them all tainted in sleazy sex scandals?

[kierthos]

Hey, works for me. I mean, there was that once stretch a few years back where it seemed that every few weeks, a politician (usually Republican) was being caught in a gay sex scandal.

I do wonder if that is an operative bit tho'....if they are getting sex, they KNOW it is not cause they are 'sexy', but because they have power and money.

Geez, that good looking schmuck is getting it for free cause of his beautiful forearms....

[mc776]

I think you're making too much of an assumption that these guys are capable of viewing things from the POV of other sentient beings.

[herlander_refugee]

Oh, yeah...that. That damned optimistic bone just keeps hitting the reality door jamb.

This is a class of people that can afford trophy wives. I mean, I would hate to apply this standard if Newt Gingrich were president...

1) Wants to. Not "oh hell, it must be Tuesday..." sex.

2) I don't think we need to worry about a Gingrich presidency.
