Newt Gingrich's Panties Are In A Bunch

Newt Gingrich has a bug up his ass over some libtard Twitterer who sent a message to all of Newtie-boys Tweets - and the Newtser is threatening to sue!! ROFL! I doubt the lawsuit will see the light of day. Social networking sites are designed to do just that - help you network. Sorry but Gingrich's followers will get to read - *gasp!!* - another point of view!

Abstinence-Only Education Has Been ELIMINATED!!

I just read via Amplify Your Voice that Obama did away with Federal funding for abstinence-only education. Yippiee!! Abstinence-only education has been a train wreck failure for nearly a decade, and I've written plenty about it here on my blog. Here's an excerpt of the details from an article by Amplify Your Voice:

Not only are all of the abstinence-only funds eliminated, but $173 million dollars will now be going to teen pregnancy prevention programs around the country that don’t have to adhere to the ridiculous standards that were there before.

While we can celebrate this news for now, we aren’t quite out of the woods yet. A door is still open for Congress to sneak these funds back in if we don’t put enough pressure on them.

Of the $110 million that are going to state-based teen pregnancy prevention programs, 75% are going to “evidence-based” programs, while 25% are going “new models” which aren’t explicitly defined. The danger here is that Congress might still try to slip abstinence-only programs into the budget during the appropriations process. David Obey, the Democratic chair of the Appropriations Committee, has tried to increase funding for abstinence-only programs in the past, and we need to make sure that he and his colleagues don’t allow this to happen now.

I just wanted to post the good news. Now if only we could get more good news for this country. It seems we're emerging from the swamp that was the Bush Presidency at long last.

Oh Boy! The Obama Dildo And Condoms!!!!

In honor of President Barack Obama shaking up things in Washington D. C., I just had to tell everyone about the latest evidence of goofy sex toys that Jump The Shark.

Here it is: The Obama Presidential Dildo!!!! In blue or gold!!



Watch it spin. Isn't it hypnotic?

And why not buy some Obama condoms to go with the dildo? They cost $4.32 each. That's quite a hefty price for a condom, isn't it? But it's historic!!!

So now you too can enjoy this historic presidency in style. I've never been overly thrilled with Obama, but I still think McCain/Palin would have been much worse. The only real mention of Obama I've had here was my relief the day Dubya finally left the building, and the graphic link I had in my sidebar to a sex toys company that was giving a 10% discount for sex toys purchases in honor of endorsing Obama. I must admit that the Obama condoms and dildo sure go well with the Hillary Clinton nutcracker and the porn DVD "Who's Nailin Paylin"... This country has officially Jumped The Shark.

Banging Head On Keyboard...

You've gotta be fucking kidding me...

Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has received her first job offer since failing in her bid to become vice-president of the United States, and it comes with a large cash offer.

Florida-based porn director Cezar Capone has offered to pay Palin $2 million to appear in an adult film production.

Capone, who calls himself "the king of all MILF films," promises in an open letter on his website that the film would be distributed internationally, shot in high definition, and feature a "beautiful mother recognized by all of America ... as the most desirable woman over 40."

To prove he's serious about the offer, Capone says he's prepared to hold the money in escrow immediately.

To sweeten the deal, Palin's husband Todd has been offered a co-starring role in the production, for which Capone would be "prepared to kick in an extra $100,000," and a new Arctic Cat snowmobile.

Palin hasn't publicly responded to the offer, which was sent to her administration office in Juneau, Alaska on Nov. 6.

She ran for Vice President, for God's sake!!! It's insulting to offer her a job as a porn star! It's bad enough that "Who's Nailin' Paylin" is coming out, and that there is a Sarah Palin blow-up doll for men who want that MILFy action. Now, this.

And I don't even like Palin's politics. Still, this really blows chunks. [via Echidne of the Snakes.]

And The Sexist Crap Continues... "Who's Nailin Paylin"

I had heard about this movie. I mean, I figured it was only a matter of time before someone made a porno about VPILF (as she was referred to by both conservative and liberal men) Sarah Palin. Well, guess what! Here's the dirt from BoingBoing:

According to Hustler, "Nailin’ Paylin" is a “naughty adventure to the wild side of that sexy Alaska governor,” featuring “girl-on-girl lovin’,” “nailing the Russians, who come knocking on her back-door,” and a younger Palin getting seduced by her college creationist professor who “will explain a ‘big bang’ theory even she can’t deny!” Also included: a three-way hardcore sex scene starring Palin/Paylin, Hillary Clinton, and Condoleeza Rice.

I actually saw some of this porno, and it's exactly what I expected. I saw the portion about the Russians stopping by her house asking to be let in because they blew a tire. All they can focus on are her big boobs and her tight ass. The woman playing Paylin really does look like Sarah Palin, minus the accent. Of course, the real Palin is not built like a porn star, but there ya go. There were the usual cock sucking, fluffing, and pussy fucking, with the prerequisite money shot in the end, with both "Russians" squirting their jizz all over her face. Shooting your wad onto a woman's face always struck me as very disrespectful.

That segment ended with a shot of a newspaper headline: "Paylin Approves Russian Penetration", or something like that.

Yeah, lots of warmth and sensitivity there. I read the Puma blogs with interest because they act as if only the Obama camp was sexist and misogynistic. Nope, folks, the sexism and misogyny came from everywhere - liberal and conservative alike. This movie, as well as the Sarah Palin Blow Up Doll prove just how far women have really come in the U. S.

And now for a touch of cognitive dissonance, while writing this post I am watching Herschel Gordon Lewis's "Blood Feast". I own "2,000 Maniacs", and that movie is just surreal. It's "Brigadoon" for the gore flick set.

How Much Worse It Could Have Been

While I'm not thrilled with Obama's possible cabinet picks, McCain's would have been much worse. Mike Huckabee running Health and Human Services??? Whew, what we just missed!

Here is a list of McCain's possible cabinet picks, had he won the Presidency:

* Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., in a prominent job, possibly even secretary of state. (I'm watching Lieberman's shaky position now. No telling where that's going to go.)

* Former Sen. Fred Thompson, R-Tenn., as attorney general. (He played a judge on Law and Order, so we know he could have done this job.)

* Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani as homeland security secretary. (9/11, all the time!!)

* Former Sen. Phil Gramm of Texas as treasury secretary. (Ick...)

* Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee as health and human services secretary. (Yikes!!!)

I guess as far as Obama's cabinet goes, it's just wait-and-see...

Say NO To Lawrence Summers

The Washington Post has stated that Obama has tapped Lawrence Summers as the frontrunner for the Secretary of the Treasury, but he is definitely NOT the right person for the job. When President of Harvard, Summers dismissed women's "innate ability" to handle math and science compared to men, saying that was why so few women held elite science positions. He also supported deregulation when he was the Treasury Secretary during the Clinton administration.

This petition below, which I signed, is available for those who want to protest his consideration for the Treasury slot. It's time to let Obama know that Summers is not the right person for the job.

Dear Friend,

I just signed this petition asking that Obama appoint a Treasury Secretary who can clean up Wall Street, not one who helped deregulate it. Right now, the leading candidate for the post is Clinton administration official Larry Summers, who had a hand in reducing regulations on banks in 1999.

We can't fix this mess by handing control to the people who made it.

Thanks!

Obama Won!!!!!

Barack Obama is our new U. S. President! He's our first African American President, too. I'm so relieved and happy!

Now, go click on the Obama sticker in my sidebar, and pick up some sex toys at a discounted price. My blog is a sex blog, after all. That's what the sticker is for.

Now I can sleep easily at night. I was so afraid that that train wreck McCain/Palin would end up winning that I ate my stomach lining. It's such good news that Obama won. Plus, he took Florida and Virginia.

McCain is about to give his concession speech. Oh, happy times. And the South Dakota abortion ban has failed. Yay!

I voted for "that one". Now let the schadenfreude happiness and cheer take over.

The neocons, Religious Wrong, and other throwbacks have been told by voters to Get The F*** Out! And I'm happy to see that.

The Palin Hate Is Coming From Everywhere

I'm taking a brief break from my blog to blog about politics. Now don't run away! I'll get back to the ever vital sex stuff and erotic writing in a moment. I just had to say something about American politics as of late.

Hillary Clinton put up with a lot of hate and vitriol, and quite a bit of it came from other Dems and progressives. I saw the Hillary Clinton nutcracker and watched the YouTube of those idiots shouting at her to "iron my shirt!" It didn't help that she not only did not get the Dem nomination for President (with 14 million popular votes), she wasn't even vetted for Vice President. Joe Biden - who trashed Anita Hill and whose brother has hedge fund "problems" - got the nod. Yes, I know that Clinton has urged her supporters to support the Obama/Biden ticket because the last thing we need is a McCain/Palin presidency/VP. While I agree with her that McCain would be a disaster and more of The Same (Read "Bush, Chapter 3"), I'm not thrilled with Obama/Biden. I do have an Obama '08 graphic on my sidebar so that anyone who clicks on it can get a percentage off for sex toys. Now there is a great use for a presidential election!

The hate continues, this time against Sarah Palin. I'm not a Palin supporter. I can't stand her politics, and I don't think she should be one heartbeat away from the Presidency. That doesn't mean that I can't speak out against the misogyny directed towards her. I recently learned of the "Sarah Palin Is A C***" t-shirts worn by some Democrats. Those shirts are sickening. The hate is coming from everywhere, though. I just learned that some conservatives are trashing her by calling her by that age-old slur - "diva". As in she's a prima donna Queen Bee who wrecks havoc wherever she goes.

Here is the page about the "diva" business - from the conservative American Spectator:

Former Mitt Romney presidential campaign staffers, some of whom are currently working for Sen. John McCain and Gov. Sarah Palin's bid for the White House, have been involved in spreading anti-Palin spin to reporters, seeking to diminish her standing after the election. "Sarah Palin is a lightweight, she won't be the first, not even the third, person people will think of when it comes to 2012," says one former Romney aide, now working for McCain-Palin. "The only serious candidate ready to challenge to lead the Republican Party is Mitt Romney. He's in charge on November 5th."

Romney has kept a low profile nationally since being denied the vice presidential nomination. He is currently traveling for the National Republican Congressional Committee in support of some House members, and has attended events for a handful of other House members who have sought his support, but he has traveled little for the McCain-Palin ticket. "He said the only time he'd travel for us is if we assured him that national cameras would be there," says a McCain campaign communications aide. "He's traveled to Nevada and a couple other states for us. That's about it."

Should McCain-Palin not win next week, Romney is expected to mount another presidential run, though it isn't clear that he has handled himself particularly well since losing the nomination. He failed to support or espouse conservative positions on the economic bailout bill in an effective or meaningful way, and he has turned down opportunities to endorse and work for conservative candidates in House or Senate seats unless they were assured of winning.

The most glaring oversight was Romney's refusal to do a phone recording for Massachusetts Republican Jeff Beatty, who is challenging Sen. John Kerry. "Mitt supposedly cares about Massachusetts, but won't even return phone calls asking for help," says a conservative working for Beatty in Boston. "It's a tough race, but the least he could do is help. He's showing his true colors."

Some former Romney aides were behind the recent leaks to media, including CNN, that Governor Sarah Palin was a "diva" and was going off message intentionally. The former and current Romney supporters further are pushing Romney supporters for key Republican jobs, including head of the Republican National Committee.

I do not want to see McCain/Palin get elected to President/Vice President because I think that would be an unmitigated disaster. While I'm no fan of Sarah Palin, I can condemn the misogyny and sexism directed at her. But she (and McCain) do nothing for me. I'm not thrilled with Obama/Biden, either. Yes, there has been lots of racism directed towards Obama, but the overt sexism has not gotten the attention it deserves, especially from the feminist establishment. Third parties are out for me because they are a waste of time. I do plan to vote for Obama/Biden in November, though. The neo-con gravy train of the past eight years has got to stop.
