Personally, I think EVERY Senator should get laid...

[The_Commonist]

...as often and by whomever they want! (as long as it's consensual and appropriate) And not just Senators! Congresspeople, Presidents and VP's, cabinet members and ambassadors, as well as state, county and local legislators. Also, plumbers and carpenters, computer technicians and restaurant workers. Website designers, janitors, camera and boom operators, truck drivers and health care professionals. Prisoners, terrorists, outlaws, clergy and republicans should also get laid as often as they want. Sound engineers and factory workers, paper mill operators and phone operators, millers, smiths, cooks and butlers. Even prostitutes should be able to have sex when they want to, because it makes you feel good. Hell, I got laid three times in the last four days, and I'm unemployed! Guitar players get laid every day, and I'm hoping to make that my next job.

For you see, it's not the sex that's the problem. It's the hypocrisy that's the problem. If everyone on the planet got laid two or three times a week, this place would be utopia! But, I suppose there's not as much money to be made from happy, relaxed people as there is from the frightened. People on edge consume more and get laid less. We're easier to control when we're tense, and that gives the fear/power/warmongers their sense of entitlement. It's all so sad, really, what's happened to our little species of big-brained monkeys!

So... what can we do about this?

2. I am not holding my breath.

We love to love sex then hate ourselves for it. Christ, we have a dissecting blowout of the cerebral aorta and the carotids if a pair of female breasts are seen.

We are not only dull and thick, as a people, but also capable self-immolaters.

3. Blasphemy, I say!

republics are against all sex...unless it is to procreate 2.3 children.

5. Remember.

6. Good one!

Shouldn't that be "phucking"?

[gentlegiant]

7. I'm all for sex too, but

not into paying for same. Besides being illegal, the Bible the good senator loves to thump says, somewhere in the Old Testy, "He who frequents a prostitute shall not see the gates of Heaven." (I've read the Good Book three times all the way through, but don't know the chapter and verse.)
As a former progressive Protestant and current free-thinking Deist, I wouldn't worry much even if I had frequented said purveyor of pleasure. But the Fundy biblical literalists who found their way into the madam's "little book of horrors" have that to think about while awaiting trial.
Oh wait! He was forgiven! He gotta do-over! Phew. That was close. Welcome to Heaven, Senator. Here's your wheelbarrow and shovel. The elephant parade starts over there.
