Christine O’Donnell on AIDS, Condoms, Drag Queens

January 20, 2012 By Leave a Comment

TPMMuckraker reports that years back Christine O’Donnell:

… was arguing that the government was spending too much money fighting AIDS and said condoms wouldn’t stop the disease from spreading.

…

… O’Donnell voicing concerns that a drag queen ball “celebrates the type of lifestyle which leads to the disease,” objecting to terming those with AIDS “victims” and calling AIDS a consequence of a certain “lifestyle which brings about this disease.”

Flirting for Success

Office Sexual Politics

A male executive sent a female employee saying he liked her choice in footwear. Did she sue him for sexual harrassment? No. But she did use his expressed preference for her own profit.

The partner was a decision-maker in the company and a good person to have on her side. From that day on, whenever she had a presentation and knew he’d be in the room, she paid special attention to her footwear — never flats, always stilettos that added another four inches to her already-striking height of 5’8″. “Flirting? I call it efficiency,” she says.

Flirting your way to the corner office

Aside from issues of sexism you may object that this favors the attractive man or woman. That favoritism is built into life. I’ve caught myself giving a pretty boy service that I’d not provided to a plain one.

Physical beauty is a superpower.

Venezuelan politician Gustavo Rojas of the First Justice party has found a novel way to rund his campaign for a seat in Venezuela’s National Assembly.

Sell tickets in a raffle: the prize is breast enlargement surgery.

Even a recession has not diminished Venezuelans’ appetite for cosmetic surgery, with many people taking out loans for operations.

Loretta Sanchez’s Lunch with Hugh Hefner

December 19, 2011 By 1 Comment

NRCC Communications Director Ken Spain is part of some incredibly silly Twitter political gossiping.

… Spain today said, “With all due respect to Hef, dodging debates with her opponent, and ignoring constituents’ concerns does not constitute ‘taking care of business.’ This is the problem with Washington politicians, they think that being a member of Congress entitles them to star in their own personal version of Entourage at the expense of the voters. In the meantime, California remains on the brink of economic and fiscal disaster.”

All of this was prompted when Republicans learned that California Rep. Loretta Sanchez was going to have a lunch with Playboy’s Hugh Hefner.

This isn’t the first Playboy Mansion visit to give Sanchez headaches. In 2000, she lost her speaking role at the Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles because she refused to put a stop to a Playboy fundraiser she had organized at the mansion. Under pressure, she eventually moved it to a less controversial location.

This sort of childish gossiping of course is part of what makes America the Greatest Country in the History of the World.

Teach Raw Sex in Schools?

Is the School House the Proper Place to Teach Raw Sex in Schools, Gordon V. Drake

If nothing else the inclusion of the word raw would mark this as right wing Christian fundamentalist propaganda.
