From the Wake Me When It's Over Dept:
Yet another married Republican politician has been outed due to his relationship with a rent boy.
Howie has the details, if you care. I'm going to save us all some time and effort and urge you kids to insert your own foot-tapping, Village People, and wet-suit jokes here.
Although, I think a word to the Republican party from Conservative apostate John Cole might be in order:
Go fuck yourself. To death.
I am tired of being patient with you nannies and your stupid self-serving rules and your slippery slopes and your bullshit and your need to be tough on crime and your earnest concerns about society. Mind your own business, get your own house in order, stop fucking interns and little boys and cheating on your wives and on your taxes and being found dead wearing two wetsuits with a dildo shoved up your ass. Just mind your own damned business, and let people do what they must to deal with their own screwed up lives, and let people handle their pain the best way they can.
I'm starting to really like that guy.

Luck. I hard refresh a lot and that is how I find a new thread.
wow, i think i’m starting to like him too trex
Heh, good post Trex. Love the snark from John Cole. He always was sensible even back in the day.
Long time no see me here. Hi gang.
Hi everyone…
Evening Trex. It’s Halloween here, and while they are trying they don’t have clue. Barely a few little pumpkins around, no decorations and just few kids planning to trick or treat. We got a nice note from our neighbor saying her daughter wanted to trick or treat and would it be Ok for her to come by. I immediately went out a got a puny little pumpkin to carve and some lollies for the kids so they better show up.
It seems to be Halloween all year long with the Rethugs.

Hey Gnome! How’s it going?
thanks for letting downstairs know :)
Hi Mary, TRex, everyone!
I always think of the wives involved when I read one of these stories. Feel very bad for them.
at least this hooker was hot
OK, my curiosity is peaked. I must follow the link and see who was outed. Be back in a jif.
Hi all! Seems as if I’ve missed a lot tonight - too busy with work and kids to get to the Internets.
I think I’m just going to load in a bunch of draft posts that say, “SHOCKER!! Another Closeted Gay Republican!” and just pull them out when I need them.
I’ll have blanks for their names.
Welcome Alicia
TRex @ 19
Does seem to be a flavor of the week thing doesn’t it?
How’s things, Betsy?
Having gotten my zed I a going to bed.
Suzanne @ 14
You’re welcome! 8-)
Night Mary.
TSF- you still there? I left you a bit of wiki penance downstairs, tho not the answer to your question.
DrDick - just got pix of our visit from Clair - I’ll have them up shortly.
We’re cute!
Alicia @ 22
Other than hating my back, not bad.
You?
marymccurnin @ 23
Nite, Mary!
Sleep well Mary.
Tinfoil hat moment-
Has anyone else seen that weird Charmin commercial where the red bear & the blue bear are running down the beach? Turns out Red is “strong”, and Blue is “soft”.
As Hmmmm would say: Hmmmmm.
Removing tinfoil hat but keeping it handy.
Alicia @ 27
Don’t think I have been called that in quite some time. ;-)
Suggest we send each Rethug rep an email:
All is discovered - leave town
And then watch to see who heads for the airport
I’m right there with you.
TRex @ 34
I bet!
TRex @ 34
How is yours doing?
There is no difference between Eastern Washington, Idaho, and Utah. They ought to re-draw the boundaries and become a single state. They are all repressed hard core Republican koolaid drinkers unable to garner an original thought. Solidly Mormon, individualism is forbidden. If this guy lived anywhere else, he might be a well adjusted gay guy, but it’s impossible there. To these people, the only thing worse than being caught being gay would be to be exposed as a liberal.
tex, i passed the cat running for the hallway when the quake hit.. my back is now flaming
TRex @ 34
Why do you hate TexB’s back? It never did anything to you.
Good grief. These guys are really, really f****d up. I once read that the best place for evil to hide is in a church. The rethuglican party must offer similar asylum to guys who can’t figure out who or what they are.
I actually have a bit of work left to do, so I’m out for a while. If I’m not able to check back in later, goodnight and pleasant dreams to all.
Well, I think it is time for bed. Take care and enjoy the snark.
TRex- I am off doing penance.
However, that was a great post- great juxtaposition of two posts, one from Howie and the other from Mr. Balloon Juice.
I kinda seem to remember that Mr. Ballon Juice is bad, but as I am off googling to pay penance to TSF, I didn’t google MBJ.
Can you fill me in?
I was just reading this story before I decided to drop by the lake.
What we have here is cheap fiscal conservatism meeting sexual hypocrisy.
IOW, a gift. :-)
I’m mending much more slowly than I would like. Still some significant pain and stiffness. The Lortabs ran out today and I’m not going to get any more, in spite of the fact that they help tremendously with my mobility and just being able to do things like sit and type.
Tomorrow is payday, and I am going to make a chiropractic appointment to get it looked at.
petedownunder @ 33

newspaperbrat @ 46
I like this plan, too.
Yes. Time for me as well.
Good night, all. The best of all possible tomorrows to you.
petedownunder @ 39
My ex-husband always hated my back when the back problems got in the way …
newspaperbrat @ 46
was trying to come up with something using “head” and “airport” - I got bubkes
Night RonD
I am a big fan of chiropractic TRex
Any date yet for your surgery Betsy?
Great quote Mr. T here’s one I saved from an old dKos comment thread:
Perfectly phrased and a beautiful sentiment.
Let’s repeat this about 100 million times to our fellow citizens.

San Fran is growing a little hostile…
S.F. Cancels Halloween Street Party
By LISA LEFF | Associated Press Writer
8:57 PM EDT, October 30, 2007
SAN FRANCISCO - City officials want the hundreds of thousands of people who usually flock to an annual Halloween street party here to stay home or go elsewhere after several episodes of violence in recent years.
Officials have advised would-be revelers through fliers, public service announcements and juvenile probation officers that they won’t find many treats in the Castro District, home in past years to the largest Halloween happening in the San Francisco Bay area.
What they will find are hundreds of extra police officers, shuttered restaurants, stepped up sobriety checks and no bus or train service after 8:30 p.m.
This Richard Curtis story is the very definition of Karmageddon. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch.
TRex @ 45
I have back problems too - think you and Betsy and me and other sore pups could get a group discount for a chiro?
TexBetsy @ 49
I think we’re closing in on TMI….but I sympathize. Hope you feel better. Hope Trex does too.
TRex @ 45
TRex- I got great treatment for a seized up shoulder from the team physician/ chiropractor for the Cambridge Rugby team. He was brilliant. So, my idea, fwiw is to check out the “docs” for the Athens sports teams, before you decide who to go to for treatment.
OH boy…. CNN is slamming the Democratic congress about ear marks….wow…. investigating Murtha… Pelosi & others refused to be respond…..
SO CNN went to the Repugs for the dirt… this ought to be good… more wingnut talking points
Gnome de Plume @ 52
Still need to get the pre-op consult approved by the insurance comp.
pumpkin carving turned into a recreation of the New Yorker cover featuring evil Cheney. film at 11:00.
I got Boo Bagged this morning (kinda like a secret santa thing for the uninitiated) so I was checking out
HillbillyHobby Lobby for some junk to put in my Boo Bags when I ran across a Poodle Stencil for Pumpkin Carving!!! Of course I bought it. (Yes, I do have a standard Poodle) but I realized I will have to go get one of those little packages of “professional” pumpkin carving tools in order to execute my masterpiece.katymine @ 59
Of course, they’ll surely go to the Dems when they want to know about Repubs - fair and balanced as they always are…
TexBetsy @ 60
A sordid commentary on our woeful healthcare system…
katymine @ 59
Best of luck to those Dems. I’ll swallow a live porcupine before I go out on a limb to help those bitchez with anything ever again.
Pete Stark I would go to bat for. Not too many others.
burnspbesq @ 4
Hi, Burns. I’m great.
(Had to step away from the computer for a while to get a snack)
Will John Cole apologize after he’s sobered up. Is some kind of rebuke in order from Congress? If he is a true republikan, how does one deal with apostates?
After the last 24 hrs, I’d agree to surgery on about an hour’s notice. I am SO ready to get rid of this pain.
Gnome de Plume @ 62
gotta hurry, tomorrow’s the big nite
Crybaby Boner….. “there is a lot of pork in this budget and I will get to the bottom of this” … this is almost as funny as the other night
HELLO… pot…. that kettle really is black… OMG
sometimes, i think i’d rather birth a baby than deal with this friggin back pain
at least when that’s over, it doesn’t happen again the next day
katymine @ 70
child, please!
katymine @ 70
I’m looking forward to Boehner getting caught with his dick up some little boy’s ass. He must be gay. He’s a Republican.

My wife just prepped 80 boo bags, I’m the lucky one designated to dispense…!

Yeah, I know. I wasn’t going to carve a pumpkin until I saw this poodle howling at the moon.

Suzanne @ 71
When I birthed my only baby, all I had was back labor! So I had the double whammy. The back pain was so overwhelming that I have no idea what “normal” contractions feel like.
ReneND @ 55
Interesting he chose to report the blackmailer to the police, thus outing the story.
hey gnome, why isn’t ours on facebook? we’re so 2005!
i had back labor both times gnome.
SunnyNobility @ 78
Heading off, Mr Flynt?
Gnome de Plume @ 10
Where have you been, gnome?
Suz! Any news on the quake -
TexBetsy @ 79
I thought it was. But then I haven’t visited facebook in a long, long time.

Loo Hoo. @ 82
I’ve been lurking, doing catch up reading. I don’t like to jump in a thread when the numbers are high.
5.6 npb, not heard of any injuries and just stuff off shelf kinda damages
Why couldn’t state rep. Curtis at least have waited until he got elected to Congress before getting himself outed?
That would have made so much better a story.
Wyoming just had a 4.0 shaker 18 km (12 miles) NE (36 degrees) of Bondurant, WY

on the Cheney fault
Suzanne @ 89
Uh oh. Does that mean that something is up in Yellowstone?
Thanks for the linky CT - alls well that ends well.
punaise @ 90
It was Cheney’s fault.

heh, heh
RickinSF - I don’t remember Rubens being gay. I recall that he got busted for whiping his skippy in a theatre, and then later a vintage porn bust.

Had a Mormon group ( one woman and three kids) stop by on Monday to give cleaning supplies for the fire victims. Must have been $100. worth of goodies. They offered to help with any clean-up for free as well. Just interesting. Wonder if the group helped in NOLA?
can i blame the ca one on ah-nold?
Trex, sorry about your back troubles. Mend soon.
TexBetsy, are you there? I’d love to meet you Saturday; can you tell me where the Firepups are meeting?
Take care of your back, and wish Cassie Happy Birthday for me.

newspaperbrat @ 92
You’re welcome! Now, I’m wondering if I’m gonna get one, Wyoming is closer to the epicenter than I am, so anytime now…
Suzanne @ 98
that would be the shifting of the teutonic plates
Suzanne @ 38
Gosh. Wishing you the best.
I almost feel like poor Larry Craig has gotten the shaft from his own party and admire the fact that he gets out of bed and faces his hostile republican colleagues. Then he casts a very republikan vote and I lose sympathy.
Marilyn In Texas @ 99
I am still here, but not going to the campsite until Sunday. Do you have the emails from wengdangdoodle?
I am going to head off to bed… have a good night…
Betsy if you have any questions or need help getting stuff moved through your insurance contact me via FB… worked in the industry for 11 years for most of the big carriers… in the authorization departments
Unlike the Republicans: At least the skeleton in my closet is imaginary.
Thanks katymine. Sleep well.
TREX- I think we have crossed the threshhold. Republicans getting caught in sex scandals of a sordid nature is now so passe’ .
Don’t they simply have mistresses, like in Europe? Or is that too “French”?
Wait a second…that’s the strategy! By having so many of these other scandals it makes Rudy Giuliani’s multiple arrangements and proclivities with cross-dressing look positively blase’. Newt’s attempts at placing he home version of “Trading Spouses”
So the Pugs are simply trying to enure us to the fact that what most of them do is actually quite normal behavior for these hard-driven stressed out 4-day a week, 3-days golfing with Jack-baby politicos.
