And then there’s just plain stupidity

[ErosWired]

We read in the news today that a video recording has come to light of two men having sex, one of whom is a Senate aide. The boning in question, it seems, took place - and was therefore videoed in - a Senate hearing room.

Location, location, location.

The aide (no longer employed, as one might imagine) was an aide on the Democratic side of the aisle. The cleaning staff in the Capitol will need a mop to sop up all the drool as the other side salivates over this.

It’s difficult to imagine - assuming even a tenth part of this is indeed factual - many ways that a gay man in Washington could undermine the efforts to achieve rights and recognition for the LGBT community more efficiently than do an amateur porn shoot in the Capitol building…especially considering the current speaker of the house. If they had done it in his office, at least they could have called it an act of protest, but this was just idiocy.

The early reporting quotes the guy as saying he’s ‘under attack for who he loves’ - No, dipshit, you’re under attack for buttfucking in the Capitol Building, where it is Not Appropriate By Any Stretch Of The Imagination.

There comes a point where risky sex is simply too risky.

Stupidity knows no bounds or political party, although it generally gravitates to the starboard side of things.

I heard that 37% of the Senate were outraged by the staffer's behavior, while the rest were outraged that they hadn't been invited. 

Lindsey Graham said that doing it in the hearing room was a dumb thing to do. "In the time I've been in the Senate," he said,  "I've found loads of places that are more comfortable for ... intimate conversations ... than that dais."  He then added that, in spite of their foolishness,  he was willing to give any of the participants a "job".  He said the ex-staffers should: "Come by my office anytime for an intimate conversation and tour of some of my favorite locations."

That's all the jokes I've got. 

It's too bad they were just doing it for the thrill.  With the access they had, they could have videoed the empty chamber and done a convincing job with it green screened as a backdrop.  They probably would still be in trouble, but not for sullying the chamber floor.

Lindsey Graham is a joke all by himself, and he would be no matter which side of the aisle he happened to be on.

I agree that filming it was a stupid thing to do, and it appears to be a fairly high quality recording, so distributing it was probably the intent when it was filmed.

I have no room to be judgemental about about fucking wildly inappropriate places, if it could be done with a reasonable expectation of not being arrested, especially when I was around 20, but even much later in life. It is a really good thing we didn't have camera phones, or an easy way to distribute videos 35 years ago, when I was at the right age to be a Congressional staffer.

I have to wonder where in the capital, the videos Trump has of Lindsey Graham were filmed.

Just in case anyone is interested, here is a clip from the video

"Lady Graham" has he was referred to by former press secretary Jen Psaki at the White House, is no one to talk.  Now I don't know how many posters are aware of this or maybe I saw it posted here,  but Graham is no stranger to hiring male sex workers and those who do gay porn.  I reached out to one of those individuals on gmail who worked for Dark Alley videos.  He responded saying he  was in the process of hiring an attorney, and that several paparazzi types had pics of young men leaving Graham's residence in the early morning hours.  Now I have to go through my "sent mail" on gmail, but I did  send a follow up email to that porn performer and didn't get a response.  He told me he initially was ready to go to  the press, that he just wanted some legal representation, and  this information was going to be given to the press shortly.  I just thought maybe the story had been "squashed" by threats or intimidation, possibly informing these sex workers they could possibly face  prostitution charges.  I noticed I hadn't seen the porn performers name as of late, don't know if he has left the industry or not.  But according to him,  Graham in no stranger to hiring these guys and that is was well known within the porn community that this senator could be a possible client.  He claimed to have had sex for money with Graham on multiple occasions. 

I would not have been convinced by one article.  But when I emailed the guy from Dark Alley, and he immediately wrote back and confirmed what I had read, I knew there was some truth to the story.

I realize this is somewhat off-topic, but again it shows that hypocritical individuals are alive  and well in the Senate,  at least in regards to their sexuality.

Anyone familiar with this story, or heard more about it as of late? Any updated information would be appreciated!

I'll bet he has .... and plenty of times.  More, it's not just the places he's referencing, it's the "results" of those "intimate conversations".

Hand, mouth, Hole, or all three ???

No need to repeat it, Lilly .... we get it ... you're taking loads in the privacy of your offices.  The only question is, how much do you have to pay them?  

 

[hntnhole]

Can't help but wonder who from the House might have been right along side of Lady G ... sopping it up his Hole too .... (not the son, I mean the father ...)

Watching Congress on YouTube shows a lot more than both sides of the news.

Probably the first time in history all parties in that room enjoyed the fucking.

I'm sure you're not the only one at all. But there's just no "maybe" about it - this thing had at least three levels of inappropriate caked on top of each other.

First is the choice to have sex in the room in the first place. I don't consider congressional hearing rooms "sacred" or anything - they're just meeting rooms for politicians to put on a show pretending to care or be outraged by the issue du jour nowadays, while all serious work in Congress occurs elsewhere, behind closed doors, or over email and phone conversations. But sex in a place where other people work - and where even lower-level staff, like the contracted cleaning crews, may stumble onto things they don't want to see - is just plain rude.

Second, filming it is an order of magnitude more stupid, in an era when any video clip stands an excellent chance of being shared with the other 7.999999998 billion people on the planet. It's a one-way ticket to job loss, being blackballed from any sort of serious endeavor (anyone heard from Anthony Weiner lately?), and, unless you come from a rather warped family, probably a lot of disappointment around the holiday table.

Third, even if you're going to do 1 and 2, not using anything to disguise identities (making it trivial for people to figure out who was involved) is catastrophically dumb.

Back to your point: there are LOTS of ideas that are very, very hot to think about, but that (if carried out) show just how stupid someone can be. This is Exhibit A.

Nothing about government buildings in DC is sexy. Even the bathhouse there is cold and sterile with DC types. It feels like a free government clinic when you enter.
