Best  Political  Erotica by William Lobdell, Editor-in-chief, The
Metropolitan Journal

*Congressman  William  Dannemeyer's  remarks in the Congressional
Record, June 29, 1989.

In  the  kind of elaborate detail that can only come from someone
mesmerized  by  the  subject,  our  Republican  congressman  from
Fullerton  tells  members  of  the House exactly how some gay men
perform their sexual acts.

The   descriptions   are  much  too  graphic  to  reveal  in  the
"Metropolitan   Journal,"  but  we  can  tell  you  he  says  the
"average"  homosexual  has  at  least  1,000 sexual partners in a
lifetime.  Dannemeyer,  60,  goes  on  to  detail  at least seven
sexual  acts,  including one that includes "certain vegetables or
light bulbs."

What's  with  the  Representative's fascination with homosexuals?
The  purpose of his remarks, he says, is to answer this question:
"How  is  it  that  over  the  course  of this decade, undeniably
conservative   administrations   have   been   used   to  promote
homosexuality?"

He  then  proceeds  to  ramble  for  the  next  four pages of the
"Congressional   Record,"   trying  to  paint  homosexuals  as  a
militant,  pathological group bent on pushing through a political
agenda  that will "de-stigmatise, legitimize and gain privilege."
He  concludes  his  argument  by  saying,  "We must either defeat
militant homosexuality or it will defeat us."

And  in  the  last paragraph, he says, "I will continue to affirm
the  heterosexual  ethic at every turn, with every subtlety, with
every  bit of imagery I can conjure, with the help of good people
across  this nation, as well as with the help of a majority of my
colleagues in Congress, and also by the grace of god."

Our tax dollars at work. (WL)
