This is what is wrong with politics

BSmack · Post by **BSmack** » Fri Jul 28, 2006 2:56 pm

Being involved in politics makes you say stupid shit that doesn't make any sense. Take Norm Coleman Jr. for example. The Senator from Minnesota was told that his 81 year old father had been caught having sex outside a pizzeria with a 38-year old woman.

Now what would you guys think if your old man, or say your grandfather was busted for scoring some tail at the ripe old age of 81? I for one would be happy for the old dude. I might recommend that he try to invest in a hotel room. But my basic attitude would be "thank God he's still able to enjoy life".

But no, not Norm Coleman. He says “I love my father dearly. I do not condone his actions or behavior, and I am deeply disturbed by what I have learned. He clearly has some issues that need to be dealt with, and I will encourage him to seek the necessary help.”

The "necessary help"? What's that? A fucking concierge service? Damn, if you can't even be happy for your 81 year old pops for still being able to get in on, then you need to find some "necessary help" of your own.

What's wrong with politics is that this will somehow become a discussion about W lying or Clinton getting sucked off.

Having sex IN PUBLIC is an issue that needs to be dealt with, Bri.

Yeah, the ol' man needs help.

I think this situation can be resolved through prayer.

Good choice.

What he needs is a Marriott Rewards card and a pat on the back. It's not like he was on a freakin sidewalk, he was in a car. You know, like thousands of people have done since Henry Ford gave us the fucking rumble seat.

I've been looking but no luck yet.

At a minimum, it'd be interesting to see what a 38-year-old woman who's willing to get it on with an 81-year-old looks like.

AGreed. Prayer as in "Please God and GOD let me be fucking (relatively) young women when I'm in my 80's, too."

So a Republican Senator's dad should be out nailing poon, and you think this will play well with the double-wide, snake-handling, "Arby's is good eatin'", Red Staters...

Good luck, hypocrites.

The problem is that somebody DOES care how it plays with the Red Staters. That's why Coleman facepalmed his own father for everybody to see. And to me, that's a fucking problem.

Why the problem? I'm not following you.

I know, for you anything that serves to further disconnect American politics from reality is a good thing.

Right?

Seriously. For the next few posts, I promise not to pick a fight with you.

What is your problem with Coleman's reaction?

That old dude was one of the richest men in the world. This old dude is either unable, or at least unwilling, to pony up for a room at Motel 6.

If a woman is willing to fuck a man that much older than her, in all likelihood at least one of the following is going on:

She's a golddigger.
She's extremely repulsive physically.
She has major self-esteem issues.
She has unresolved "daddy" issues.

Anna Nicole fits nicely into Category 1 (although some of the others might also apply). In this case, Category 1 doesn't apply, or the woman is seriously deluded if she thinks it does.

1. That is was public

2. That he claimed his father "has issues" because of this incident.

It was public because a phony "War On Terror" Republican would rather throw
his own father under the bus than feel the lash from the Wonder Bread set.
I get it.

Which is exactly what Poptart-merica wanted him to say.
They would excpect no less.

Don't want to speak for Bri, but I'm pretty sure he already does that. Of course, you would belittle his votes because they wouldn't be the same as yours.

What? The words, "no comment" are not in Coleman's vocabulary?

And his father does have a problem if he's getting blown on the side of the road. That is totally inappropriate behavior and I do believe he is old enough to know better.

Yea, like you've never done anything like that ever.

What's wrong with politics is that we'd never see this post from BSmack were the Senator involved a Democrat. Too many people in this country can't laugh at their own.
