STONE HIM IN THE PUBLIC SQUARE

Ensign’s Affair Disqualifies Him From Ever Formulating Policy Again

You should feel ashamed to even look at this dirty photo.Sad disgraced Senator John Ensign, who admitted yesterday to a boring affair with a consenting adult female while he was separated from his wife, obviously cannot lead the Senate Republican Policy Committee anymore because of … fucking? WHATEVER. He cannot function as a credible conservative voice if he has already confessed publicly to putting his ween in a lady, that is the point. So now he’s no longer the #4 Republican in the Senate … which, oddly enough, positions him perfectly for a 2012 presidential run as “the Comeback Kid.” Just you wait! [Bloomberg]

    So he is poised to come back as “first veterinarian”?
    My cat says okay to that. My dog, not so much.

  2. SayItWithWookies says at 3:20 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Civil rights — revolution — adultery — is there anything these idiots can’t do wrong?

  3. Mr Blifil says at 3:20 pm, June 17th, 2009

    I think of him more as “the Bareback Kid.”

  4. OzoneTom says at 3:22 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Stop harshing my buzz!

  5. Serolf Divad says at 3:23 pm, June 17th, 2009

    It’s truly a sad day in America when the hypocritical Republican party feels it can no longer get away with being patently hypocritical.

    By the way: since by his perverse sexual actions Ensign’s wrecked someone else’s heterosexual marriage does this mean that… in a way… he’s gay?

  6. chascates says at 3:23 pm, June 17th, 2009

    He said it was the worst mistake he’d ever made. Things can only get better now.

  7. Lascauxcaveman says at 3:26 pm, June 17th, 2009

    What a chickenshit. If this happened to Blago, or William Jefferson or any number of other corrupt dems, it would have served only to make them stronger.

    I guess heterosex is the republican’s Kryptonite.

  8. qwerty42 says at 3:27 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Serolf Divad: the dreaded gay agenda…

  9. I knew Wayne Hays. Wayne Hays was a friend of mine. Senator, you’re no Wayne Hays.

  10. norbizness says at 3:27 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Do he and Richard Cohen share the same hair de-colorizer?

  11. Noodle Salad says at 3:27 pm, June 17th, 2009

    He’s sorry for “posting it” to the wrong “list”, ok? And he’s sorry if anyone was offended by his “post.”

  12. Humpback says at 3:28 pm, June 17th, 2009

    chascates: I’m not so sure about that. Maybe he is just practicing for more and bigger mistakes.

  13. #4 Republican in the Senate?

    HA HAHA. Just try putting that on your resume and getting hired anywhere

  14. GreatOldOnesParty says at 3:29 pm, June 17th, 2009

    When did we become a nation of prudish, Puritan, asexual crybabies that…
    oh wait. Fuck it!
    We should be celebrating the sexual virility of our leaders!
    That way we won’t look like such pussies to the rest of the world.

  15. Monsieur Grumpe says at 3:30 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Someone needs to start a home for all these Republican rejects. It should be privately funded by shady pharmaceutical companies looking for cheap test subjects.

  16. Extemporanus says at 3:32 pm, June 17th, 2009

    If I were married to Barbra Streisand, I’d probably want a lil’ sumfin-sumfin on the side as well.

  17. AllHat says at 3:33 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Message from gaydar station: Iceberg! Dead ahead!

  18. Vegastard says at 3:33 pm, June 17th, 2009

    He’s never been alone with another man’s wife… as long as the man was watching.

  19. PrairiePossum says at 3:36 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Now that he no longer has to waste time on boring Committee assignments, he will have more time for sexing the hired help. Idle weens are the devil’s workshop.

  20. Extemporanus says at 3:42 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Extemporanus: Speaking of which: Can anybody out there seed “Capriporn One”? I’ve got a torrent just waiting for it…

  21. Gorillionaire says at 3:44 pm, June 17th, 2009

    The man looks like one of those stock clipart pics on Yahoo! or something with a caption like “recession proof careers BE A SENATOR!”.

  22. tehbenton says at 3:44 pm, June 17th, 2009

    which, oddly enough, positions him perfectly for a 2012 presidential run as “the Comeback Kid.”

    Only if he didn’t inhale.

  23. paintitblack says at 3:47 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Chief Petty Office Ensign will sail away to a distant shore, pray hard to Jeebus, & all shall be forgiven - as opposed to the dastard Clinton - bc IOKIYAR. Comeback kid? You betcha.

  24. dijetlo says at 3:48 pm, June 17th, 2009

    “confessed publicly to putting his ween in a lady”

    They are over reacting of course, they don’t really know how to deal with one of their own admitting to old fashioned lady weening. If one of them was 14, in a Furry costume or a public crapper, they’d follow their normal routine but this consensual lady weening in private thing has them momentarily stumped.

  25. WadISay says at 3:50 pm, June 17th, 2009

    David Vitter will always be the “number two” Republican to me.

  26. Mild Midwesterner says at 3:51 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Still no pics?

  27. El Pinche says at 3:51 pm, June 17th, 2009

    jeez , its not like he fucked a goat or something.

  28. A Better American Than YOU says at 3:52 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Well, he has certainly diminished the sanctity of my marriage.

    Now if only my neighbor’s wife had an ass worth coveting.

  29. 19kevin8 says at 3:53 pm, June 17th, 2009

    He’d have to put his ween in underage Dominican ladyboys to be able to make policy for the GOP.

  30. 19kevin8 says at 3:57 pm, June 17th, 2009

    He also hasn’t twatted since confessing. He must be grounded.

  31. CollegeStudent says at 3:59 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Senate Republican Policy Committee- OK with policy being formed by people who saw (and liked) Night at the Museum 2.
    Not OK with people who like girls

  32. thefrontpage says at 4:12 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Ensign also resigned from his position as The Grand Hypocritor at the Satanic cult known as Promise Keepers.

  33. drrty martini says at 4:14 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Shouldn’t that be “Cumback Kid”?

  34. Mr Blifil says at 4:17 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Is it me, or does the house bought by his mistress and her husband, which was bringing them to ruination, hence the extortion plot, does it look like a porn set?

  35. martinette says at 4:24 pm, June 17th, 2009

    John Ensign. We remember him when he was just a seaman, wokka wokka.

  36. Lascauxcaveman says at 4:33 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Mr Blifil: Heh. Barcaloungers w/built-in cup holders. Klasssssy!

  37. horned_viper says at 4:47 pm, June 17th, 2009

    He should join the navy, climb the ladder and become Rear Admiral Ensign, heh heh, REAR Admiral.

  38. mrsixinch says at 4:53 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Mr Blifil: Feh. Style vaguely reminiscent of someone who doesn’t know what style is and just started buying stuff at Lowes. The columns in pic 3 just make me laugh. SNL did that sketch with Fred Armisen as the Jersey guy selling “KAHlumns!” like the “CHAN-duh-leers!”

  39. thefrontpage says at 5:01 pm, June 17th, 2009

    It would have been funnier if Ensign had had an affair with Bristol Palin.

  40. Saragon says at 5:28 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Mr Blifil: Weirdly, every Vegas house looks like a porn set. Probably because of all the people having sex on the front lawns - it creates a certain ambiance.

  41. wrytoast says at 5:34 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Remember, remember, the fifth of Blowvember
    Oral and anal and frot…

  42. IslandGirlFL says at 5:44 pm, June 17th, 2009

    mrsixinch: I think it looks like Tony Soprano’s house.

  43. arclight says at 6:00 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Oh, he’s doing this in 2009 so he’ll be clear to run in 2012, absolutely.

  44. Jukesgrrl says at 6:04 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Mr Blifil: Yes, all the necessary sets for the action: on the pool table, in the pool, in the wine cellar, on those big beds with hubby peering through the shutters, swinging from the chandelier, wrapped in those faaaabulous drapes, on the steps to the bathtub, in the bathtub … ding-dong, is that the pizza delivery man I hear? And right behind him (so to speak) here’s Larry Craig, coming (so to speak) to apologize! They don’t need blackmail; they’ve got a money-maker right here.

  45. TeddyS says at 6:05 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Another proud and good Christian man done in by a hussy.

  46. DangerousLiberal says at 7:53 pm, June 17th, 2009

    “Ensign, 51, told reporters in Las Vegas yesterday the affair was “the worst thing I have ever done in my life.” ”

    Why do I think that this hypothesis can be rejected by way of a cursory look at his statements in the Congressional Record?

  47. President Beeblebrox says at 10:25 pm, June 17th, 2009

    Daily racist emails and Twitters, public golden showers, volcano monitoring, ghey marriage everywhere - While President Obama is measuring the drapes and Nancy Pelosi is going to force you all to get gay married to sheep, they forgot about your votes. My friends, we’ve got them just where we want them.

  48. Joey Ratz says at 7:21 am, June 18th, 2009

    John Ensign/Meghan McCain 2012, running on the pro-sex Republican platform! What, too much athwart core repub values?

  49. zenferret says at 12:19 pm, June 18th, 2009

    mrsixinch: Looks like one of the high dollar locals’ casinos. Money spent, not wisely. Low dollar casinos look like a Motel 6 with slot machines.

    Freaking Summerlin… Might fit in in Lake Las Vegas also.

  50. Red Baron says at 5:56 am, June 19th, 2009

    The Sen. Ensign story is front page above the fold two days in a row, while the more egregious adultery of Rep. Loretta Sanchez is completely ignored by the congressional media? Could it be that she is a Democrat? Extra, extra, read all about it–
