Slog - Comments on Paris Is Worth a Mass http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/05/paris_is_worth_a_mass And the vice presidency, it appears, is worth a phony, staged, hetero "sex tape." Charlie Crist, the governor of Florida, is on John McCain's shortlist of VP possibilities. But Crist's got some baggage: he's a social moderate (sorta), he's single (very), and he's the subject of gay rumors galore. And just in time for his big interview with McCain at one of Cindy's ranches, a sex tape surfaces. But don't get too excited, Mr. Poe. There's no full-frontal, no shots of Crist's tanned ass grinding away at some hot babe. It's just a security camera tape of Crist making out...

For starters, are we talking Hilton or France?  Catholic ceremony, property of matter, or a large pile?

Also, I too enjoyed the line, "chewing through pussy like the Capitol Hill Coyote." Very descriptive. I wish I could write like that...

He's not a family-values guy, now matter how you slice him. Which increases the defections to a boob like Barr.

Henri IV was a good guy! Don't compare him to Crist. "Henri quatre" didn't deny he was a Protestant, he stopped a war by becoming a Catholic, he promulgated the Edict of Nantes which gave protestants rights and he hoped there would "not be a peasant so poor in his kingdom that they would not have their Sunday boiled chicken" (poulet au pot..where we get the expression chicken in every pot). Henri doesn't much sound like his time's version of a republican.

(Also he's about the about the only king the French upon which the french look on with affection.)

You're wroooooong. Jeff Stevens probably merely had a bowl of Nub Cereal for breakfast. So can you answer his question straight up, or are you too Capitol Hill Hipster cool for your own good (or ours, for that matter)?

You're wrong, and Cher, as always, is right. To atone for my stupid breakfast, I went straight to Snopes to check into this whole Capitol Hill Coyote thing. Here's what I found out.

I'm sooooooo sorry. Next time I'll do like Cher and eat David Letterman for breakfast instead.
