Larry Flynt to Expose Another Senate Sex Scandal Soon

As we all know, Larry Flynt loves exposing hypocrite republican congressmen. The ad he posted in the Washington Post offered a $1 million dollar award for information proving a political sex scandal. This reward has already yielded Flynt some high profile results: Sen. David Vitter and the D.C. Madame scandal can be attributed to his efforts.

In July, The Hill reported that Vitter might not be the only casualty:

Larry Flynt, the porn-industry magnate who first linked Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) to the escort service of the “D.C. Madam,” said Wednesday that his investigators are tracking more than 20 leads on alleged congressional sex scandals.

“If someone’s living a life contrary to the way they’re advocating ... then they become fair game,” Flynt told reporters. “I don’t want a man like that legislating for me, especially in the area of morality.”
However, since then, we haven't heard much about this - until now.

Joe Piucci's diary :: ::
In an appearance at the University of Southern California tonight, I had this exchange with Flynt:

Me: "Have you received any other actionable information on politicians besides Vitter from your Washington Post ad?"

Flynt: "There’s one other gay senator, and he’s going to bite the dust soon.”
Now, we can all be assured that this is not a democrat. Larry Flynt has been, and was again very clear that he only would expose someone who was is living a public life contrary to his private life. Flynt asserted, "if he was voting for and supporting gay rights, we would not go after him."

Now, I personally would rather have the republicans go down based on policy and substance, but exposing more of them as hypocrites when it comes to gay rights or "family values" certainly is okay in my book. I can't wait for the story to break.

1. Lindsey Graham?

[BridgeTheGap]

2. Mitch McConnell?

That's my hope!

[cali]

3. Mine too!

But I suspect it's Graham.

[wicket]

9. Oh that would be beautiful

:rofl:

[mod mom]

22. please be Mitch McConnell!

[liberalnurse]

24. Let's try and turn on our "Gay-dar:

and guess who it is! I'm sensing it is a big name repug too. I can hardly wait to know!:bounce:

[mod mom]

25. I had read McConnell & Graham listed on blog that was covering scandals. Lindsey

Graham hasn't been as destructive as Mitch McConnell so my hope is it lies with McConnell.

[Kurovski]

41. That would be a pleasant turn of events.

[City Lights]

4. That's my guess too. eom

[bigscott]

5. Lindsey Graham is GAY??

:sarcasm:

As far as I am concerned more power to larry - these hypocrites deserve everything they get

[PetrusMonsFormicarum]

6. Vitter is no casualty

He's still in office, as is toe-tappin Larry Craig.

[BridgeTheGap]

8. Exactly right...they're not a "casualty" until they're gone!

The sooner the better.

[flyarm]

7. go Larry ...get em all!! ..eom

[monmouth]

10. How 'bout that little red-headed twit from one of the Carolinas that

was involved with that murder/suicide in Florida?? He'd be my guess..

[tekisui]

11. Patrick McHenry is a Congressman.

He is due to get outed, but the article said a Senator.

[monmouth]

30. Ahh, my bad. This guy is due though...

[Freddie Stubbs]

12. He? I know of one Senator who has been rumored to be gay and has refused to answer questions about

her sexual orientation.

[Tarheel_Dem]

15. Since he's only outing Repukes, the list is very short....

Kay Bailey Hutchinson of TX; Susan Collins of ME; Liddy Dole of NC; Olympia Snowe of WA? Of the choices available, it'd be great if it were Hutchinson.
:shrug:

[Freddie Stubbs]

18. Are we sure he is only outing Republicans?

:shrug:

[Tarheel_Dem]

34. Well, according to the OP, which I just re-read, I'm pretty sure

he's only outing the Family Values types, which traditionally have been Republican, and who have consistently voted against gay rights. However, I could be wrong.

[MonkeyFunk]

26. Barbara Mikulski is long-rumored to be gay.

[Kingofalldems]

35. Nice try. And thanks for your concern

[Freddie Stubbs]

43. You are welcome for your concern

[DrDan]

13. I can picture about a quarter of the rethugs losing sleep each night praying they are not the next

[soothsayer]

14. They've been self-destructing so quickly it's been hard for Larry to keep up!

[bdamomma]

16. Larry Craig, or is this person an additional person Flynt is going

to reveal.

[npincus]

28. good point... he could be putting the kabosh on Craig

perhaps someone (possibly more than a fleeting toilet-stall paramour) has presented iron-clad proof to Flynt.

I would prefer it to be someone else (R) personally, as I think Craig is suffieciently discredited and love the fact he's still in the Senate making his party squirm.

[book_worm]

17. I thought after Vitter that he already had several and was going to slowly reveal them?

[lonestarnot]

19. Waiting and watching.

[Ravy]

20. I think the Republicans should be thanking Larry Flint.

After all, the private sector taking 1 million to accomplish what 40 million of the Starr Commission sought to do.

I think privatization of exposing Republican sex scandals may just be the way to go.

[ima_sinnic]

23. heh -- "privatization of exposing Republican sex scandals" !

:rofl:

[NanceGreggs]

37. Talk abut a growth industry!

Not to mention job security. As long as there are Republicans, you'll be gainfully employed.

[gratuitous]

21. Hey, no fair!

It's not fair to pry into a politician's personal life and affairs, even if that politician is cynically manipulating the system to the detriment of others of his kind who aren't quite as well-positioned as a United States Senator. Of course, it's a different story for 12-year-old catastrophic accident victims. Fuckers like that deserve to be stalked by Michelle Malkin.

[npincus]

27. Geez... what's he waiting for?

[Tarheel_Dem]

38. If I'm guessing right, he probably wants to wait until the election

cycle really gets geared up. Let's not forget, we're still a year out from next year's election. Patience.....timing is everything in politics.

[DemoTex]

29. The weather bureau has issued a Senate Sex Watch along and either side of a line ...

:popcorn:

[AtomicKitten]

31. drip.drip.drip

Thanks, Larry.

[garybeck]

32. Flynt has been saying for months now that there are others, plural.

I've been waiting patiently. I'm not sure this post indicates something is immediately coming. Hopefully.

[Blackhatjack]

33. In all seriousness, there is another concern here about 'gay' Repub deniers....

When it comes to holding public office for Republicans who ran on the 'family values/anti-gay meme, you have to consider what the ramifications would be if they were 'exposed' as being 'gay.'

The first issue that comes to my mind is not just hypocrisy, but rather BLACKMAIL.

For those who know the truth, they have a powerful hold over the 'as yet unexposed gay member.'

I am reminded of the files full of information that Tom Delay used to keep on all of his Repub House members. And it was demonstrated time and again that Delay could contact certain members, whisper a few comments to them, and they would mysteriously change their votes even though they had spoken out forcefully against that position. Did Delay 'use' that information to force compliance? Sure sounds like it. We do know that Delay threatened to run an opponent against a Repub member's son unless he changed his vote on the medicare drug prescription plan. What wouldn't he do to get his way?

So I think the 'potential blackmail' issue is of more concern than the 'hypocrisy' issue.

[Fading Captain]

36. I am starting to wonder if this is the case

Do people with skeletons in their closets get purposely launched into power, so that the people doing the launching can blackmail them into supporting an agenda?

[tandot]

39. Jeff Sessions?

[johnfunk]

40. Please, please, please let it be Norm Coleman...

... or Orrin Hatch.

[B Calm]

42. It has to be Mitch McConnell, Jeff Sessions and Lindsey Graham..

[Vinca]

44. Considering what Mitch McConnell and his staff did to the 12 year

old kid - publishing his address, spreading lies about the family income, causing Michelle Malkin to park her ugly carcass on their doorstep - I really hope it's him.
