re: #48 Intenzity

That post was a bit over the top.

It’s one thing to make an obvious parody of political women you don’t like. It’s no different than men and even apt semi-racily when like Palin or the bimbos on Fox they publicly try so hard to be flirtatious and/or dress in skirts that barely cover their fuzz (or lack thereof, who cares?).

On the other hand, something that allegedly happened in private is private. It is no one’s business no matter how much you find someone like O’Donnell offensive. And really, all there is to it are pictures of her in a Halloween costume.

The only exception to this is when self righteous “family values types” like Newt, or Rent boy guy or Sanford, are caught cheating, in the present, not some thing years ago, by verifiable sources, not anonymous and questionable folks clearly paid off to spread some dirt. That exception only exists because they are publicly telling us that their private lies are better than everyone else’s and holding themselves up as some twisted example.
