GOP convention spurns 'Naked Boys'

Just days ahead of the Republican National Convention in New York City, the Big Apple's tourism board has pulled the off-Broadway show "Naked Boys Singing!" from a list of discounted venues offered to visiting delegates.

According to the show's producers, the Republican National Committee (RNC) requested the action, saying the show was unsuitable.

The performers in "Naked Boys Singing!" are nude about 90 percent of the time, and the show has gay overtones. It is the 10th-longest running off-Broadway show, with 2,127 performances over the past six years.

said today that maybe if there were glowsticks involved the Republicans would not object...

2. The real story is...

Most of them are pissed that it's being cancelled! There are more closet cases in the Republican party than lies that Bush has told (I don't know which is greater?).

3. They did not want to get Busted so they forced it to cancel. So much for

the free market system they puke about. They are so full of shit.

4. You can bet your ass they will be in there on the sly.

5. You know...

...Knowing the Repubs tendancies towards closetism and the twisting of their own repressed sexual desires, it took me a second to realize that the word in the headline was SPURNS.

The irony is, I didn't think it was particularly unusual. ;)

6. David Drier will go see it
