A guy can't take a friggin' pee anymore without getting groped by some Republican Senator or Representative. (While some might find it somewhat flattering when a GOP Senator tries to pick them up at the urinal, I am not amused. And when a lowly Representative tries it - well, I'm sure most folks just get offended. Don't even get me started on state offices. What, they don't think people have standards?) You'd think these guys would have the common courtesy to ask if we were interested. Most of us, including me, are straight and married, and unlike these GOP pols, not hiding out in the closet. We go into bathrooms to eliminate waste, or possibly wash our hands (Although a lot of guys seem to have a problem with the hand-washing thing. Yuck.)
But anyway, back to the GOP pervs.
First there was State Rep. Robert Allen, a Republican from Merritt Island, who was arrested in the men's restroom in a public park in the central Florida town of Titusville, near Orlando. A veteran Florida legislator who has co-sponsored bills increasing penalties for public lewdness and solicitation of sex, Allen was arrested after cruising a public restroom and offering to perform oral sex upon an undercover officer for $20.
Then there was Sen. Larry Craig of Idaho, who confirmed that he pled guilty to misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct after an undercover police officer accused him of soliciting sex in a Minneapolis airport bathroom in June. He wasn't reaching under the stall to ask for some toiletpaper, that's for sure.
I'll freely admit it. I am now afraid to use a public restroom for worry of molestation by GOP closet cases who fail to understand that public bathrooms are for going #1 and #2, not for hooking up. I wonder if my bladder can withstand holding it all day, from the time I go to work in the morning until I sprint back home in the evening to the safety and release of my personal, private bathroom. Ah!
