That's just so typical of Washington! by Zsenicorpse 10/27/2006, 8:46am PDT Imagine if you will: your high school debate team. Remember what those guys were like? Remember the state champion? Probably not. But those are the guys who run the country, believe it or not. And here's what they are like on the pull. Specialists in public health policy: like closed-mouth kissing only please! "At one fancy dinner, a campaign manager started flirting with me and telling me how much he'd liked my recent appearance on a network news show. And by way of flirting, he said, "Do you want to meet Ted Kennedy?" I said, "Sure," and as he's leading me over to Ted Kennedy, he says, "So you'll have dinner with me, right?" I realized what a transaction it all was. As it turned out, it was good that I met Ted Kennedy. He was really nice to me. He knew my work. But then I was faced with this dinner. It just seemed weird, this currency of introductions and dinner. " Honey, usually you only get dinner. "I always like to see this famous journalist and his hot girlfriend with her miniskirt and short black hair. He's nice-looking too, the kind of guy you'd ask for advice on your stock portfolio. But he enjoys telling groups of guys what he likes to do with his girlfriend, how he likes "to take her." That's what it's about in Washington: he'd rather talk about doing her to his friends than actually to have sex with her." Honey, that's what all guys with really hot girlfriends do. "At one party I watched a woman describe how two columnists had fought over her decades before and she was practically fondling her crotch while she spoke. " OOC! "Then the busty woman stands up and says, "What are we all doing here? Don't we have important things to do in the morning?" And I was thinking, "I just got out of a difficult marriage. There's nowhere else I'd rather be.""
