Who's Sorry Now?

What can you say about these idiots that hasn't been printed or is about to be?  Let's begin with the absolutely hilarious headline by Andy Borowitz,

Schwarznegger:

'I am the Sperminator'

Short article follows. 

Then there's this rich fascisti who happens to own the majority of the Italian television :

'Bunga Bunga' parties: 

Explosive Details of Italian PM's Sex Scandal

Whatever a "bunga bunga" party may be, the UK's Guardian has it covered and so does Huff Post.  Of course, this is a drop in the bucket of accusations against this Italian PM.  He is a dear friend of Muammar Gadaffi; his media empire influences approximately 90% of the Italian population, according to some.  He is 79 years old, likes big breasted, underage women whom he "allegedly" pays to have sex. 

A more disturbing accusation in which details are so graphic and terrible one reporter on MSNBC this morning said they could not be revealed, IMF head Dominique Strauss-Kahn has been arrested for sexually assaulting a maid in his New York hotel.  His attempt to flee the country before apprehension resulted in a multitude of headlines and angled stories.  HuffPost  focused on the limited facts:   

  

IMF Chief Held Without Bail in Hotel Sex Case



The Washington Post took an interesting approach focusing on "messy marital histories" of politicians and the NYTimes explore the "code of silence" in France about the secret lives of politicians.

The material is endless:  Newt, Edwards, Ensign, Clinton...and these are just the offending heterosexuals who come to mind. 

Sex and politics.  It never gets old. 

Why Am I Not Surprised?

Newt Gingrich's second wife, Marianne, has some provacative insights into a man I can only describe as "icky".

Her broadsides on their marriage land in the pages of the August issue of  Esquire and  confirm his extra-marital relationship with this now third wife was going on while he denounced Bill Clinton for the Monica Lewinsky affair.  At the same time he was giving speeches extolling the virtues of "family values" and the like, he was wooing his third wife, a woman he asked to marry him before he'd  asked his second wife for a divorce.

She says she should have seen the red flags. "He asked me to marry him way too early. And he wasn't divorced yet. I should have known there was a problem."...

"I know. I asked him. He'd already asked her to marry him before he asked me for a divorce. Before he even asked."

What a guy.  When asked if he'll ever be president, she says "There's no way."  She goes on to say

"He believes that what he says in public and how he lives don't have to be connected," she says. "If you believe that, then yeah, you can run for president."

She wanted to save the marriage. 

She called a minister they both trusted. He came over to the house the next day and worked with them the whole weekend, but Gingrich just kept saying she was a Jaguar and all he wanted was a Chevrolet. "'I can't handle a Jaguar right now.' He said that many times. 'All I want is a Chevrolet.'"

(Please God, make me a Jaguar)

The next night, they sat talking out on their back patio in Georgia. She said, "How do you give that speech and do what you're doing?"


"It doesn't matter what I do," he answered. "People need to hear what I have to say. There's no one else who can say what I can say. It doesn't matter what I live."

Did I say "icky"?  I think "HYPOCRITE", "NARCISSISTIC" AND "LYING SACK OF *!#!" are more appropos.
