A BUZZFLASH EDITORIAL

Let's talk about sex.
Well, really, here at BuzzFlash we don't talk much about it.

What we do is talk about Republicans talking about sex, because they can't seem to stop talking about it.

You might say that the right wing morality police are obsessed with sex, in a way that indicates some mental health issues.

So much of BuzzFlash's coverage over the last four and a half years has been about hypocritical Republicans who hold themselves out as moral scolds, but are bed hopping like jackrabbits in a lettuce patch.

Let's see, we've got the contingent of gay Republicans who are anti-gay (with their journalistic contingent headed by Matt Drudge). We've got anti-adulterers who are regular adulterers (remember beloved husband Newt Gingrich was shtooping a Congressional staffer while calling for Clinton's impeachment and his right wing replacement in waiting, the former Congressman Bob Livingston, was exposed as a married Capitol Hill Romeo, by Larry Flynt, no less.) We've got the anti-gamblers and kinky sex preachers who are gamblers and into kinky sex (Bill "Moral Virtues" Bennett where are you? You can come out of hiding now.) We had Bush supporters like the former Republican Mayor of Waterbury, Connecticut, who paid a mother so that he could have sex with her underage daughter in his mayoral office.

Oh, we could go on and on, but what's the use? They get away with their sexual hypocrisy because the media has a double standard. If you're a Republican male, you're just having a good old frat party sort of Hooters time, just some lusty male fun. But if you are a Democrat engaging in sex, the same acts are considered sin. ..
