Mystery GOP Senator Gropes David Brooks At Dinner– But It Wasn’t Lindsey Graham

“NY Times right-wing columnist David Brooks won’t tell which Republican senator fondled him under a table. Presumably they’ll try to blame it on ex-Senator Larry Craig, in order to protect current Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who insiders claim is the actual groper. Many years ago, McConnell was kicked out of the military– after just a few days– for inappropriately touching a private’s privates. He’s been very successful at covering that up for decades although Inside the Beltway it’s well known that McConnell is an active closet queen with a make believe marriage similar to Craig’s.

Right wing propagandist Ann Althouse, of course, blames the victim. Her readers are betting on Lindsey Graham. Now Graham is the other high profile hypocritical right-wing closet queen and he likes being billed as a “life-long committed bachelor.” Although it isn’t just Althouse’s readers who are speculating that he was the one responsible for Brooks’ dirty grab, folks who actually know Graham also know he is a prissy little queen from South Carolina, and in a committed relationship with a young man; he doesn’t grope strangers under tables”.

Glad to see some bands from the ATH getting some stage time (Whigs, Dead Confederate, Panic).

Jim Bunning went "bye-bye" years ago and is the butt end of a joke in Congress: Sen. Bunning: "Regular order!" Sen. Byrd: "Who said that?" Sen. Bunning: "I did." Sen. Byrd: "Who are you?" Sen. Bunning: "I'm a senator." Sen. Byrd: "You're a great baseball man." Sen. Bunning: "I'm a senator; I have the same rights as you." Sen. Byrd: "Yeah, man, you're a senator."

I assume that the link that you guys have for the Blues & BBQ fest has the correct times for each day? Reason being is that every publication, C-J, Louisville.com, etc has different times than those shown on the flyer. I've read that Saturday was to be an all day thing but the flyer states times are from 4pm to 11pm. I'm just trying to set my plans and wondered why there were so many versions. I will believe what I read on your site, since you gave away the tickets. Spanks. OK. I assume that the link that you guys have for the Blues & BBQ fest has the correct times for each day?

By not showing up, he is either under the impression that he is better than us hoi polloi, and/or is continue to fuel the fires of the rumors that he has become senile. Please show up, Senator, for your own benefit as well as ours. I wish Jim Bunning would show up to these events.

I thought it was great. I didn't have much interest in Willie Nelson, although I can at least say I saw him in concert once. Mellencamp was phenomenal; probably one of the best performances I've seen in years. Dylan is Dylan. If you go to see him expecting a greatest hits show you're going to be disappointed.
