GOP Senate Candidate Warns of Lesbianism

-snip-

In the tape released by the campaign of Brad Carson, the Democratic candidate, Coburn says a campaign worker from Coalgate told him that "lesbianism is so rampant in some of the schools in southeast Oklahoma that they'll only let one girl go to the bathroom. Now think about it. Think about that issue. How is it that that's happened to us?"

Joe McCulley, school superintendent in Coalgate, chuckled when asked about Coburn's remark.

"He knows something I don't know. We have not identified anything like that. We have not had to deal with any issues on that subject — ever," McCulley said.

Coburn and Carson are vying for the post that Republican Don Nickles is leaving after 24 years. The race could be pivotal in the battle for control of the Senate.

1. That's insane. This is the real reason republicans are against

gay marriage. They think you can "get the gay". So ignorant and moronic.

[porphyrian]

2. He's obviously got a thing for lesbian teens in bathrooms...

...and feels so guilty about it, he's trying to prevent it from ever happening in real life.

5. who doesn't?

but seriously this is preposterous. I live in Oklahoma and this is just so far from reality it is ridiculous. Of course, we are not hearing or reading this about good ole Tom here so the media is covering for his obvious lack of being able to deal with reality.

11. *snort*

The guy is a whacko...as porphyrian mentioned, he might have some "t33n girls in th3 ba+hr00m" issues that are bubbling to the surface.

[bluedeminredstate]

What?

These girls are going in straight and coming out as bull dykes? Yep. Happens all the time. That's why I tell my daughter NEVER to use the bathrooms at school. If she has to go she can pee behind a bush somewhere. (No pun intended)

[pelagius]

7. You know, lesbianism can be avoided...

...if we all just use the paper seat protectors and wash our hands thoroughly with an anti-bacterial soap. </sarcasm>

If there is a grain of truth to this story, I think letting one student into the bathroom at a time is to avoid smoking in the girls room, a time-honored high school tradition since 1940 something.

9. that was my thought: stopping girls from smoking/toking in bathroom

3. public sex in a public bathroom. . .

Call me a genderist but I think that is more of a 'married man who is secretly gay" thing.

[slappypan]

4. Oklahomophobic!

Ooooklahoma, where the GOP's looking up your dress!

6. hancock Michigan

now who is calling the kettle black (just kidding)

[DrWeird]

8. Is he concerned about lesbianism or watersports?

I'm so confused.

[HFishbine]

10. If that's true

Unisex bathrooms ought to be encouraged.

This is so funny ...

I don't even know where to begin!

[Gman]

13. If this were in fact true

just why would electing Coburn fix this "problem"?

Some hysterical mom/campaign worker apparently came to her own skewed conclusions about why girls can only go to the bathroom one at a time, most likely because of her own homophobia and projection of her own suppressed lesbian feelings. Gee, it couldn't possibly be that they go to the RR one at a time because they'll sit in there just to get out of class and talk and waste time.

14. He's turned on by fantasizing about it.

From what I've been able to gather, most men are.:shrug: However, the sane ones keep it private, or limit it to inane threads on internet message boards.

Only total nutcases make their personal sexual obsessions part of their public statements while running for office.
