The scene features Bree (Marcia Cross) and new boy-toy Orson (Kyle MacLachlan) in bed, with the underwear-clad housewife protesting her partner's attempt to give her oral sex.
"I don't do that," she says. "I'm a Republican."
"I'm a Libertarian," Orson replies. "I believe in minimizing the role of the state and maximizing individual rights. Trust me, I know what I'm doing."
That's a description of the suppressed Youtube Desperate Housewives tongue-n-groove scene, which ABC nixed after an "unauthorized" release of the footage. The House of Mouse claims it never wanted the sequence made public, though it is apparently using it to tease the upcoming DH season. Stephen Gordon says the alphabet net just doesn't want it to become public knowledge that libertarians make better lovers. I say all the cunnilingus in the world won't change one thing: This is the gash scene that made Marcia Cross our national heroine.
