In Morning Joe's "News You Can't Use" we have one untimely revelation, and yet one more "Don't" for you speeding multi-taskers. State Sen Roy Ashburn, CA, a conservative from Bakersfield who had voted against gay issues for 14 years, didn't so much step out of the closet, as crash out. Ashburn had little choice after fetching a DUI arrest upon leaving a gay nightclub. After announcing that yes, he is gay he said it shouldn't
affect his job, a theory I hope he passes along to the others in his conservative party.
How many times has this happened to you? You're whizzing down the freeway on your way to a hot date, and remember that you'd neglected to prune that all important bikini area, well that's exactly what happened to Megan Barnes of Florida. Fortunately, her EX was in the passenger seat, and happy to steer from his position. Unfortunately, neither was watching the road.
In fact, they didn't know they'd hit a pick up truck until Trooper Gary Dunick, (who may now retire having seen everything) stopped them. In describing what Ms. Barnes was thinking, explained, "She said she was meeting her boyfriend in Key West and wanted to be ready for the visit." As the officer was soon to find out, Ms Barnes had a few rather important outstanding traffic violations and no license, which will delay her date by some time...who'd have thought?
“Family Values” California state senator representing Kern County, Republican Roy Ashburn (guess how he votes on gay issues?), goes to a gay bar near the Capital, picks up a scantily clad buddy, gets drunk, drives and receives a DUI. In my opinion the Republican Party has been taken over small portions of the republican party of “birthers, baggers and blowhards” (people who love to push their beliefs on others while trying to take away rights of those they just hate) and that’s who they need to extract from their party if they real want to win. Good Luck, because as they said in WACO, “We Ain’t Coming Out”. They are good at “Follow the Leader”. They listen to their dullard leaders Beck, Hedgecock, Hannity, O’Reilly, Rush and Savage and the rest of the Blowhards. The world is complicated and most republicans (Hamiliton, Lincoln, Roosevelt) believe that we should use government a little to increase social mobility, now its about dancing around the claim that government is the problem. The sainted Reagan passed the biggest tax increase in American history and as a result federal employment increased, but facts are lost when mired in mysticism and superstition. Although most republicans are trying to distant themselves from this fringe they have a long way to go. I guess Ashburn is the first on the list “2010 Republican Summer of Love”. Remember last year list of “2009 Republican Summer of Love”: state assemblyman, Michael D. Duvall (CA), Senator John Ensign (NV), Senator Paul Stanley (TN), Governor Mark Stanford (SC), SC Board of Ed Chair, Kristin Maguire (AKA Bridget Keeney). Do I hear Tammy Wynette, “Stand By Your Man” playing in the background? I remember not so long ago that other Orange County song favorite, “Stand By Your Tan” (for Tan Nguyen). But that’s another Orange County fool.
That sums it up nicely Montana! It's always the ones screaming the loudest, who are trying to cover something up rather than do some good for the gay cause, for example. The mystery remains how the clowns you listed are elected and elected again, though I know the answer and aren't ready to face it. ; )
