Federal Erection Commission?

Social services are supposed to provide a "hand up, not a hand out." Well, via the Medicare prescription drug benefit, the federal government will now be giving men a hand getting it up by covering Viagra and other sexual performance drugs. I hadn't realized Bush's "need any wood" line from the second debate was actually a policy proposal.

There go those sex crazy conservatives again.

[Thomas Paine's Goiter]

Well, at least the old people can't scream about letting die in the streets.

[smacky]

This totally pisses me off.

And what of all the former alcoholics and coke heads who can't get it up, who will take advantage of this "medically neccessary" coverage?
They don't deserve to have their crack baby offspring, especially on my buck...
By the same logic, shouldn't the government pay for my future saline breast implants? It's medically neccessary, so that I can find a man who will procreate with me. Because they need someone to make all of those bastards that taxpayers will have to subsidize in the future.

bob dole's lovin' it.

Come on smacky, we ALL know there's no such thing as a male slut.

If the grayhaireds want to get sexually active, then fine, as long as they keep it in their own bedrooms.

But when they start coming around OUR neighborhoods and recruiting OUR seniors for their lifestyle agenda, its OUR problem.

If the very idea of crusty, droopy old liverspotted bodies writhing around between the sheets doesn't go against Nature. I don't know what does.

[geezer bob]

The funny thing is that the only reason a lot of these geezers can't get it up is 'cause they can't stand the old bag they're married too.

It's not just for heterosexuals anymore. So there wn't be any gay marriage on George W. Bush's watch, but there will be a little bit more gay sex.

The level of humor this thread has spawned (pun intended) defies all records of spleen breakage.

[Phong Phuhn]

Before we rush into this one, the government needs to think long and hard about this.

[NoStar]

It's for the children, but it wood be worse under Kerry.

[Rick Santorum]

Well, this will make my man on dog adventures much easier to start.

And don't get me started on those box turtles.

Bob Dole has a hard on.

Bob Dole wants an orgy started right now on this thread.

[Bob Dole]

Er, this is the Libertine blog, right?

"Come on smacky, we ALL know there's no such thing as a male slut."

It's not so much that there's no such thing as a man-whore. It just seems ridiculous to point out because it's an oxymoron.

This could start a mass uprising.

Hah!!!!

Pavel, if I could pretend to have prostate problems I could probably get the medicine covered by insurance and just use a pill cutter. Then I wouldn't have to break our import laws.

What would I have to do to fake prostate problems?

Never mind, I don't want to know.

I got a bone to pick with my congresscritter.

I thought the correct term to describe "male slut" was redundancy.

"I thought the correct term to describe "male slut" was redundancy."

Yeah. That's what I get for being pithy at work.

Hi, I'm Deuce Bigalow -- your man-whore for the evening.

Now I can't help but repeat my favorite quotes from Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo.

"I should he-bitch man-slap you!"
-------------

SHE: I don't understand how that could possibly be pleasurable for a woman. You're just not supposed to go up there! Frankly, I don't see how men do it either.

HE: But aren't you curious? Wouldn't you want to explore something new?

SHE: No, I'm just not into it.

HE: So space exploration is definitely out for you?

SHE: I mean, if a woman wants to be an astronaut, more power to her. It's just not my thing. (pause) Frankly, I'd rather take it up the butt.

In addition to a prescription, you need to show a copy of a valid marriage license.
