Here’s another reason why I want to disappear into Disney World for a while…<\/p>\n

GOP Lawmaker’s Graphic Sex-Bragging Caught On Tape<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Michael Duvall is a conservative Republican state representative from Orange County, California. While waiting for the start of a legislative hearing in July, the 54-year-old married father of two and family values champion began describing, for the benefit of a colleague seated next to him, his ongoing affairs with two different women. In very<\/em> graphic detail.<\/p>\n

For instance:\n<\/p>\n

She wears little eye-patch underwear. So, the other day she came here with her underwear, Thursday. And\u00e2\u20ac\u00a8 so, we had made love Wednesday–a lot! And so she’ll, she’s all, ‘I am going \u00e2\u20ac\u00a8up and down the stairs, and you’re dripping out of me!’ So messy!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Oh how lovely.  Haven’t I already seen this movie? <\/p>\n

As the OC Weekly<\/em> reports, \u00e2\u20ac\u00a8Duvall has "blasted" efforts to promote gay marriage, and got a 100 percent score from the Capitol Resource Institute, which describes<\/a> its mission as to "educate, advocate, protect, and defend family-friendly policies in the California state legislature". In March, a spokeswoman for the group called Duvall "a consistent trooper for the conservative causes," adding that "for the last two years, he has voted time and time again to protect and preserve family values in California."\n<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

See…this kind of thing is funny for a while (oh look at what just popped out of another conservative’s closet…!<\/em>), but then it gets so soul wearying.  I really need to remember that morality and values and honor and decency really do represent more in our lives then convenient hooks to drive the rubes to the polls with…that there is more to the human status then this runt represents. <\/p>\n

People need to look…really look…at what’s motivating all those moral crusaders of the right, waving scarecrows bearing their neighbor’s faces.  They’re just pushing your buttons because they know it works.  And why is that?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
