Some thoughts about Republican "sex" scandals.

Of course, the Democrats will just point to this as evidence that Republicans have "hang ups" about sex.

Rich old guys can't get sex - it's a sign of the apocalypse.

Given the history of organized outing of political opponents by the left wing of the gay lobby, I wonder just how random this episode was.

"Of course, the Democrats will just point to this as evidence that Republicans have "hang ups" about sex."

Yeah, because being reelected 7 times after being caught having sex with a young male is normal, or something.

K, according to Clayton Cramer, this stuff (trolling for anonymous male-male[1] sex in public) is common enough in big cities that most of them have cops actively looking for it. I don't really care about who people want to have sex with[2], but I don't want to have to deal with it in public. Grow the heck up and get a fricking room--you don't have a right to have sex in public, whether it's hetero or homosexual. Amusingly, I saw a link just a few minutes ago saying that Tucker Carlson of CNN was so offended by being propositioned in a bathroom that he slammed the other guy's head into a wall.

[1] I used that phrasing, because the "classic" tearoom study or whatever it was called said 54% of men asked about it didn't consider themselves homosexual or bisexual.

[2] as long as it's between consenting adults, yadda yadda.

Another example: Jack Ryan, whose gubernatorial campaign was done in by a sex scandal with his own wife.
