OMG, A Book With Sex!
Over at Making Light, there’s a complete roundup of the tale of one Fred Head (D – Texas). With a name like the hero of an Ogden Nash comic ballad, he decided to live up to the name, attacking his Republican opponent for having once written “pornography”, aka a tame romance novel. Tame, I tell you:
Ross gave a quick tug and her pajama bottoms slid away with a quiet rustle. Suddenly she was bare. He thrust his leg between hers, and a deep heaviness throbbed in her belly. He was hard, pressing against her, and she moaned.
She needed him to fill the aching void at her center.
With devastating slowness, his hand cupped her completely before he slowly slid a finger into her warmth…
Oooh, suddenly she was bare! Bare, I tell you!
It gets better — once this escapade started hitting the blogs, someone sounding a lot like Fred went around posting comments in support of himself, referring in the process to “Absence Only” sex education policy when he (presumably) meant “Abstinence Only”.
Needless to say, the righteously justified ridicule continues to accrue.

Oh dear, them Republicans sure are dirty rascals.
Don’t knock the erotic effect of romance novels, though – they are the only porn some teenage girls ever get. :)
This sounds like the erotic novel that Vice President Cheney’s wife wrote entitled “Sisters”. It’s hard to find due to the embarassing lesbian affair therein, as well as the accounts of attempted rapes and references to brothels. Heady stuff, a real bodice-ripper! (It MUST be good, the cheapest copy that I could find over the net was going for $274.77…)
So, I went to the page, and I read the lady’s work. Sounds pretty good! I hope she wins her post on basic principle.
Ain’t there enough things to chastize the Republicans about?
People should stick to the important issues.
There are never enough things to chastise the republicans about! When they start sticking to the important issues, so will we!
Are you certain that he didn’t mean sex-education-by-ignoring-the-whole-thing when he said “Absence Onlyâ€?? If he has the sense to run against a Republican, he’s probably smarter than you imply that he is…
There are rascals and cads in all politcal parties. Regarding the blast against Republicans above, who was it who used an intern as a humidor? (with thanks to Stephen Colbert:-)
It’s funny, I went to elementary school in Austin in the 70’s and Fred Head’s son was in my class. His name? ED HEAD.
