Sex, Smears and Daddybears Politicians are a funny lot. There is no doubting the large number of hot daddies and chubs out there in the world of politics. Given the need to present a public image so clean that it would make Mother Theresa seem like a cheap crack-whore turning tricks in alleyways, a lot of scandals eventually make their way out to the public eye with a ridiculous amount of moralizing and knee-jerk reaction-ism from trashy gutter press. Anyone who knows any journalists knows that the press is the last place that should take the moral highground. Now sex scandals come out about actors and sports stars, but they are always fairly mild in comparison to the uber-kink that politicians get up to. When it's a hot one, it's fantastic reading the tell-all stories. Now if you are like me, the best of these stories are always when some right-wing arsewipe who has spent his life espousing 'family values' and 'the evils of homosexuality' gets caught with rent boys. That's one of the few times that the press serves a function nowadays. However, don't be fooled into thinking that the press, in any way, is interested in exposing hypocrisy and making the world a better place. More often than not, it's the same homophobia and desire to promote 'family values' that dominate their releases. An example of this is the following (a big thanks to contributor Chris for bringing this guy to my attention). David Campbell is an MP in Australia, and until recently was the Minister for Transport. He resigned from this post shortly before a story broke involving him being caught on surveillance tape leaving a gay sex club. Now, nothing in David Campbell's past suggested any homophobia or anti-gay behaviour. Regardless, the press went after him with such rabid hatred that it brought to the fore one simple truth - the press was only interested in pushing a homophobic agenda. I have never been to a gay sex club, I have only been to a sauna once. I enjoyed it enough but I was self-concious due to my extremely large genitalia (no-one who knows me say a fucking thing!). However, if I was in a club and David Campbell walked in, I would have been convinced I had died and gone to heaven. This guy is one of the hottest politicians to walk the earth. Seriously - how good would this guy look naked? His resignation and the subsequent story, sparked furious debates about the homophobic reaction of the press and he still currently is an MP for Keira. Yes, he is married with grown up children, but I feel it is harsh to judge him. We created this society where politicians have to live lies to meet the majority's very narrow view of wholesomeness. He has committed no crimes. We bitch about the press and it's agendas (let's face it, most newspapers really represent large corporations who invariably have right wing fucks as their heads) yet we still buy them. We fuel this bullshit in the name of gossip and end up not just making these corporations rich but adding to the campaign funds of ultra-right-wing bastards. The poor protect the wealthy in this world. Also, I can't judge him because I want Mr Campbell to spill copious amounts of his jizz all over me. I personally think he should consider re-locating here to get away from it all. I could keep him very safe and happy
