One night in Bangkok...
Posted by Laurence Simon at 02:18 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (11)

Apparently, Virginia Senate candidate Jim Webb thinks that a man placing his four year-old son's penis in his mouth is not a sexual act:

Among the excerpts is a scene from the 2002 novel "Lost Soldiers," in which a man embraces his four-year-old son and places the boy's penis in his mouth.

Webb said the release of the excerpts was "a Karl Rove campaign tactic" and a "classic example of the way this campaign has worked. It's smear after smear."

He defended his fiction as "illuminative."

"It's not a sexual act," Webb told Plotkin regarding the "Lost Soldiers" excerpt. "I actually saw this happen in a slum in Bangkok when I was there as a journalist."

"The duty of a writer is to illuminate the surroundings," he added.

I'm just waiting for him to make a play for the Jewish vote by claiming this was an emergency circumcision.

I mean, how many rabbis could there possibly be in the slums of Bangkok?

(Or should I not ask?)

The democrats have said over and over again that BJ's are not sex. So we shouldn't be surprised.

Monica was just demonstrating a custom from SE Asia. This completely exonerates Bill Clinton.

And Danny Bonaduce.
And Hugh Grant...

Perhaps that's why John Mark Karr was there, seeking out help with his quest to become a chick. Maybe that's how gender reassignment doctors operate over yonder.

I'd rather vote for a slurrer (is that even a word) than someone who publishes what can only be called child pornography.

(This would only be acceptable if it were published for people who may understand the cultural context the act took place in - if, indeed, that is what Webb was attempting to portray.)

Besides, the chances that this depicts a father (an ultra-Orthodox haredi rabbi/mohel) performing metzitzah b'peh during a bris the moment he returned (from somewhere) are quite low.

BigOrangeAxe: Good one!

I sorta wonder if there were four guys standing around to watch and make sure it wasn't sexual.

Wait a minute. This is a joke, right? Didn't everyone's father do this when he greeted them??!!
