Any of you guys who have been around here for a while know I love my politics but I try hard not to post on here about it too much.
If you don’t want to read my political ranting – I did post about an MMMF bisexual foursome fantasy that I’ve been having recently on my other blog www.BisexualDave.com – you can read that if you need your
Tonight one of my friends in town invited me to a party to watch the first Presidential Debate. Being San Francisco, my political leanings are polar to most of my friends but that just makes it more fun and on most social issues, I’m left leaning.
I hate how the Republican Party here tries gay marriage and abortion to their main issues – from my perspective, a Republican in the White House can’t change either of those issues – the courts decide those issues or the states can by referrendums (or whatever you call a referrendum here in the US). Unfortunately, the Liberal Party in Australia is going down this same road. And rich old white guys should not be commenting on abortions – I’d love to see some Republican get an abortion question and simply say – “I shouldn’t comment on things of this nature. In a vote, I’ll abstain and I trust the courts to decide the issue.” Wouldn’t that be a breath of fresh air?
One other rant for today – voter ID. I understand that this will ‘help’ the Republican Party because the Democrats generally get the vote of younger people, minorities (didn’t Obama get 98% of the black vote in 2008 – that to me is racist in itself). However, you can’t do ANYTHING without photo ID these days and for the sake of the integrity of the voting system, I believe you should have to provide ID. Every single time I go to the liquor store here in my neighbourhood – I can’t get a 6 pack without an ID. I’d never dream of driving here in the US without my drivers licence, my bank here asked me for ID to pull out cash from my account (despite having my debit card) and you can’t go near an aeroplane without ID obviously.
Now, if it is too difficult for old or poor people to get photo ID – that is a seperate problem. Don’t bring into question the election process because the bureacracy terrible. That is horrible if someone can’t get photo ID because of all the things I just mentioned are not available to those people. I’m sure minorities and old people would like to grab a 6 pack of beer every now and then.
Just my 2 cents worth – I promise to get back to the speedos tomorrow. I did post about a bisexual MMMF foursome fantasy that I’ve been having recently over on my other blog – www.BisexualDave.com.
Just a quick post as I’m up late and I had the RNC on TV because I think the speeches are fantastic – fantastic in their delivery, just as the DNC speeches are great – I will watch the DNC speeches I promise. Next time around I think I’d like to go along and see it in the flesh if I’m in America.
I just wanted to ask if anyone else here would like to see a threesome between Paul Ryan, his wife Janna and Anne Romney? I reckon even old Mitt would have a pretty hot body so lets make it a foursome.
You guys seem to like it that I’m speaking from the heart a little more on this blog so this is what you get.
My tip to the Republicans….. rich old white guys have no place talking (and legislating) on issues dealing with gay guys or womens health (abortion – it is a womans body – her choice). Silly old bastards should just shut up and say that it isn’t their area of expertise and they’ll abstain from any vote on those issues. Simple, the Republicans would win everything and that Rachel Maddow would shut up – I used to like her but now she is just nasty because of the election.
I was watching the Convention on PBS because I don’t like the FOX crap or the MSNBC crap – I flicked over during Paul Ryans speech and MSNBC was in a commercial. That is terrible. I’m going to test that when the DNC Convension is on and if FOX holds a commercial during Vice-President Biden’s speech I’m going to write a letter to Rupert Murdoch.
Sorry for the politics guys – tomorrow I have a chance for you to get some Dave Evans Swimwear – white, super see through and it includes a months membership to SwimmerBoyz.com.
You guys know I enjoy my politics BUT all these darn Romney and Obama commercials are getting a bit too much…. and there is a long way to go.
One of the talking points this last week is on abortions. I’d consider myself a republican (maybe more of a libertarian) – and republicans want smaller government and in general we want government to butt out of our lives. Why the fuck then are a bunch of old white men telling women what they can and can’t do with their bodies?
Does anyone else think that is an oxymoron? And I love the way they stand on the bible while they spill this dribble (I’m not talking so much about the candidates as much as I’m talking about the extreme points of view).
They spill the same dribble when it comes to who you and I choose to sleep with.
I saw this posted on a blog that I read and thought it was funny and I hope it is true.
In her radio show, Dr. Laura Schlessinger said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22 and cannot be condoned under any circumstance.
The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, penned by a US resident, which was posted on the Internet. It’s funny, as well as informative:
Dear Dr Laura:
Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God’s Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination … End of debate.I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God’s Laws and how to follow them.
- Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can’t I own Canadians?
- I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?
- I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of Menstrual uncleanliness – Lev. 15:19-24. The problem is how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.
- When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord – Lev. 1:9. The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?
- I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or should I ask the police to do it?
- A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination, Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don’t agree. Can you settle this? Are there ‘degrees’ of abomination? Should I smite him?
- Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle-room here?
- Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die?
- I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?
- My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? Lev. 24:10-16. Couldn’t we just burn them to death at a private family affair, like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)
I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters, so I’m confident you can help.
Thank you again for reminding us that God’s word is eternal and unchanging.
Your adoring fan.

P. S. It would be a damn shame if we can’t own a Canadian.
