Washington DC Adult Entertainment: GOP Gay Rights Group Wants Halt To ‘Don’t Tell’


Written on July 23, 2010 – 9:49 pm | by larrylibido

Government attorneys have said Congress should decide the fate of the policynot a federal judge. They presented only the policy’s legislative history in their defense.
“Don’t ask, don’t tell” prohibits the military from asking about the sexual orientation of service members but requires discharge of those who acknowledge being gay or are discovered to be engaging in homosexual activity, even in the privacy of their own homes off base.
Log Cabin Republicans, which includes former and current members of the military, said more than 13,500 service members have been fired under the law since 1994.
Testimony from former service members ranged from a decorated Air Force officer who was let go after his peers snooped through his personal e-mail in Iraq, to a sailor whose supervisor concluded he was gay after he refused to visit prostitutes.

Washington DC Adult Entertainment: RON HART: The Last of the Mohegans — Casinos

Liberal yuppies always seek wisdom from Native American traditions as it is presumes that any other culture is wiser, deeper and more spiritual than their own, especially if it is oddly mystic. They also know any hint of Native American blood in them can get them into Harvard with an 850 SAT score.
Government, fond of patting itself on the back for social justice for being the moral authority, likes to wet their beak in all aspects of vice. New York now taxes cigarettes at $11 a pack (not including the feds’ take). They rake in an inordinate amount of alcohol sales, run the numbers in the form of state lotteries, and probably only have a “war on drugs” because they cannot figure a way to muscle a cut of that underground business. Government lost money in prostitution too when they took the Mustang Ranch. Only our government could lose money selling hookers and booze with a zero cost basis.

Washington DC Adult Entertainment: I was Betty Draper


Written on July 23, 2010 – 9:49 pm | by larrylibido

American Movie Classics January Jones as Betty Draper in “Mad Men” “Are you going off to be a Mad Man?” I asked my husband as he downed the last of his coffee, slid his laptop into its case, and headed for the door. “No,” he said, giving his shirttail a final tug. “But I’m about to be an Irritated Man.” I can’t blame him. Since “Mad Men” entered the cultural consciousness, I have harassed my husband, an advertising creative director, with a multitude of questions, mostly of the facetious variety. “No,” he replies, with diminishing patience, “I don’t start drinking at 10 a.m., I’m not allowed to use my expense account for prostitutes, I don’t compulsively pat the bottoms of secretaries at work. We don’t even have secretaries anymore. That’s a profession whose time has passed, like silversmiths and fletchers and the people who make barrels.” “Coopers,” I say. “A person who makes barrels is called a cooper. As in …

Washington DC Adult Entertainment: Sherrod Case Shows Power Of Conservative Media

… They may have acted without knowing the whole story,” co-host Brian Kilmeade said of the administration.
Breitbart did not immediately respond to an AP request for an interview.
But on ABC’s “Good Morning America” Wednesday, he said his story “was not about Shirley Sherrod.” Instead, he said, the video provides evidence of Georgia NAACP members applauding or laughing at racist behavior, at the same time national NAACP figures are criticizing the tea party movement for having members that express racist sentiments.”
Breitbart’s BigGovernment.com attracted attention last year for airing video of workers at the community group ACORN counseling actors posing as a prostitute and her boyfriend. This month, Fox News has aggressively reported the story about the U.S. Justice Department choosing not to pursue a voter intimidation cases involving the New Black Panther Party in Philadelphia.

Washington DC Strip Clubs: GOP Treasurer Accuses Party Chairman Of Concealing Debts


Written on July 22, 2010 – 7:49 pm | by ginger

RNC spokesperson Doug Heye has dismissed the accusation as “patently false” in a statement to Hotline OnCall. Heye assured that the party remains in compliance with FEC campaign finance rules.
Steele, a former lieutenant governor of Maryland, has faced a string of issues since he became the GOP’s first black chairman in January 2009. He has had to clarify statements calling abortion an “individual choice,” and predicting his party’s failure in taking back the majority in the House this November.
Earlier this year, the RNC chief of staff and the co-chairman of the GOP’s fundraising board resigned amid fallout from a federal disclosure report.
The report showed the GOP spending $1,946 on a California bondage-themed strip club in January to entertain a donor, and Steele spending thousands the next month on chartered planes and stays at the Four Seasons and the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Thanks Lat for redesigning ATL website to show more male crotches and asses than an all-women’s night at a strip club.

Washington DC Strip Clubs: Ban a ground zero mosque?


Written on July 21, 2010 – 11:01 pm | by ginger

You know the answer. But Palin is not a slave to intellectual consistency. Change the church to a mosque, and put it a couple of blocks from the site of the World Trade Center, and she suddenly loses all patience with the rights of religious believers.
This week, she posted Twitter comments urging Muslims and New Yorkers to put a stop to a proposed Islamic community center near ground zero because the pain from the 9/11 attacks “is too raw, too real.”
The people who live in the vicinity don’t seem to agree. The local community board voted 29-1 to approve the project, which would include a swimming pool, gym, child-care center, performing arts space and other facilities open to the public.
No one objects to putting up other new buildings in the neighborhood. Nor is anyone trying to close down businesses that seem slightly incompatible with the horror that happened there — including a strip club and an off-track betting parlor. The only objection to the Islamic center is that it is Islamic.

Washington DC Adult Entertainment: Mad Men season 4 preview featuring Jon Hamm

It’s Thanksgiving, 1964, and the new company SCDP has grown from a hotel start-up to playing in the big leagues, with an office in the Time Life Building. The fledgling company has met with some success, but in the premiere episode, Don’s mistake might put all those efforts to waste.
His big gaff may have something to do with an interview he’s pressured into doing with the press.
“[The] new season is all about what it’s like for this very secretive man who has a dual identity to suddenly be front and center as one of the faces of the new agency,” creator Matthew Weiner told New York Magazine. “How is he going to handle it?”
On the personal front, the family holiday finds Don a divorced man living in The Village. The ladies’ man is in a bit of a funk and seems to have lost his game. He has even resorted to paying a call girl or two for some action, but Sterling hopes to change his pal’s streak by setting him up on a blind date.

Washington DC Adult Entertainment: The Rise and Fall and Rise Again of Eliot Spitzer and CNN


Written on July 21, 2010 – 5:49 pm | by larrylibido

Over two years ago, Governor Eliot was down the road from where I live in Washington, D.C. with call girl Ashley. And now? A joint prime time CNN slot.
We have seen it time and time again: the rise and the fall of the politician. Some seem to fade into the shadows (Congressmen Gary Condit, Mark Foley and Senator Larry Craig for example), whereas others bounce back (Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich and Governor Eliot Spitzer). What makes Governor Spitzer able to be one of those who bounce back, especially after Client #9 was literally caught with his socks on in an act of pure political hypocrisy?
Governor, I have to say (no sarcasm here): I give you a lot of credit for this comeback. Comebacks are never easy. And one on prime time, night after night, is unusual to say the least.
