Never in the history of our country has American politics been so dominated by sexually repressed men.
Probably it has to do with that weird fascist thing where anal retentives are so obsessed with goose stepping to glory that they never find time for bounteous human sexuality.
And this isn't just being flip. There's something deadly about a government without humor or sex -- and there's about as many laughs in the Bush White House as the back ward of a mental hospital.
Remember how the pugs went berserk about Bill Clinton's extra curricular activities? They spent literally hundreds of millions of dollars trying to impeach him for his private sex life (which should have stayed private!). Granted, the impact on his family was reprehensible, but we suddenly found ourselves in a Republican/Pharisee version of the Holy (?) Inquisition.
From almost day one of the George W. Bush years, the Dionysian take on human existence has been banished into another galaxy. Unfortunately, it hasn't been replaced with the alternative Apollonian view of the world, which at least would be nurturing of science and civilization.
Republicans, to say it straight out, simply seem to be terrified of sex. Bush's buddy Christian fundamentalists inevitably conjure up visions of Salem Witch Trials. And predictably, the recent abusive man/boy antics of Republican congressmen demonstrate that sexual repression is always neurotically acted out.
Which brings to mind another matter. A righteous hatred (or fear) of sexuality has historically been associated with a contempt for women. Patriarchal religions are always filled with warnings about the "Goddess" and "nature religions". The very word "pagan" means country dweller. Does this have anything to do with why Republicans are always raping Mother Nature?
And take this wacko Armageddon business (the Baptist Big Bang). Will someone please tell me why these people are so eager to get "blown up"? Surely it has something to do with their hatred of anything physical. Well, sexual abandon is about as "physical" as it gets, so it must be evil incarnate. Right?
Sigh!
In a way this all full circles around to Freud's notions of Eros and Thanatos (death), and there's certainly no doubt that the pugs have put all their money on Thanatos.
In fact, they can't even wait for Armageddon, so they keep starting preemptive wars as fast as they can. Hey, wars/death/Thanatos -- doesn't that beat an active sex life all over the place?
Sure, some of this is fun talk, but most of it is life and death serious, because a neurotic political/religious world view that hates and fears sex is a one way ticket to national castration.
But why even bother to talk about this when all we have to do is take a long hard look at our President and Vice President? And throw in Karl Rove while you're at it.
See any sexual life forms?
Case closed.

No, I see three tortured closet cases. When ever I look at the unholy trinity above, I can't help but think they really need their pal Jeff Gannon to come back to clean all their clocks in a sexually metaphorical fashion.
Sexual repression can and does breed some seriously damaged people. Famous Wisconsin serial killer, Eddie Gein, the template for Norman Bates and Silence Of The Lambs's Buffalo Bill is just one of many people whose criminality was a direct result of incredible sexual repression. Sexual repression always turns to rage. People who are already predisposed to be psychotic can be pushed far over the edge as a result of sexual repression. Does anyone here doubt the psychotic bend of the unholy trinity? I know I don't doubt it for a minute. What else explains men who are waiting with baited breath for the end of the world?
It's fucking scary!!!!
Blessed be!

...I said "It's fucking scary!" I was referring to the fact that the unholy trinity; DUBYA, Dick(LESS), and Hot Karl Rove seem all to happy to be in a position to press the big button on the big nuke. Call it Armageddon, the Apocalypse, or end of days, those three impotent closet-case fucks (yes, I said that word a second time in one paragraph...hope the goddess doesn't strike me down LOL) seem to get their jollies thinking about bringing the world to an end. If that's not fucking scary (three times) what the fuck (four) is?
Blessed be!

Hi Bill,
I have been knowing this about these pugs for a long time and so do alot of other people. I think this explains why they want to also control a womans body.(against abortion even in cases of rape and incest). What really bothers me is that there are woman out there who will vote for these pugs even if they know this. I wish they will drink the poison kool aid and rapture themselves up and leave this planet to those who enjoy life and all its pleasures.

Yes, I entirely agree that many, many people sense that these guys are MAJOR twisted sexually. The thing about severe sexual repression, as you now, is that the deeper the repression, the more poisonous the acting out -- such as their blatant, albeit quasi conscious. hatred of women and their abusive diddling of boys. This has been said before, but the inmates are running the asylum. If we could just have a magic wand and "poof" away all the clothes of the pug inmates (and have it on tape), that might be worth a few chuckles -- or barfs.
