BREAKING: POLITICO FINDS OUT ABOUT BEN QUAYLE’S MUSCLES

by Jack Stuef

God, this town badly needs some real celebrities. Or for people to realize they're not celebrities. One of the two.
Guess what? Politico got to talk to Ben Quayle! Ooh, what is he like? Do you think he’ll like Politico? Will he want to be friends with them and stuff? He’s so cool because he’s the only member of Congress who hasn’t had at least one bout with prostate cancer in his life so far. Everything about this is disgusting. Who are these people? Is Ben Quayle lying about having a dog now? Has Mike Allen ever had a better orgasm than the one he has when Ben Quayle tells him he reads his 3 am newsletter?

Oh, they’re just like us! Us being swamp creatures. Swamp creatures who are pretty famous in certain mounds of mud and dead fish! [Politico]

Ben is certainly a chip off the old potatoe.

This bloodline needs to be extinguished.

OC_Surf_Serf January 27, 2011 at 2:50 pm

Politicoe?

baconzgood January 27, 2011 at 2:50 pm

PACKERS????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO FUCK YOURSELF son of man that cant spell potatoe!!!!

horsedreamer_1 January 28, 2011 at 10:34 am

Aaron Rodgers: romantically linked to ESPN sideline honey Erin Andrews.

Ben Roethlisberger: taking advantage of not-legal-drinking-age South Georgia coeds.

ADV: Green Bay.

baconzgood January 28, 2011 at 11:03 am

Sorry to say I live next the Heinz field and I'm from the Burgh. STEELERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sophist [APPLESAUCE] January 27, 2011 at 2:50 pm

So is Ben Quayle the beltway version of Justin Bieber or something? Should we expect to see every young (i.e. 30's) impressionable Washington type sporting Quayle hair?

tbogg January 27, 2011 at 3:35 pm

Yes. Bobbing up and down in their lap.

Totally not a gay joke.

nounverb911 January 27, 2011 at 2:51 pm

P90X is that congresscode for penis?

GuanoFaucet January 27, 2011 at 3:10 pm

No. It's code for meth.

jus_wonderin January 27, 2011 at 2:54 pm

Could Cheney take him hunting????

magic_titty January 27, 2011 at 2:55 pm

1. I have no idea why I watched that.

2. The cutaways to Mike Allen seemed to be shot after the interview was over.

3. I have nothing else to add.

Ducksworthy January 27, 2011 at 5:23 pm

Thank you for saving me the agony of the stupidity.

PsycWench January 27, 2011 at 2:55 pm

He’s so cool because he’s the only member of Congress who hasn’t had at least one bout with prostate cancer in his life so far.
As the son of Dan Quayle, he qualifies as having had a lifetime bout with prostate cancer, or something very similar to it.

BerkeleyBear January 27, 2011 at 4:50 pm

As a Quayle, he certainly has had plenty of experience inspecting his prostate visually. Although I've been told the smell and lighting aren't very good when you have your head wedged up there.

edgydrifter January 27, 2011 at 2:55 pm

Beefcake! Dude is ripped!!! I'll bet he rips the seams out of his jacket when he signs his name on stuff! Forget Congress, Ben, your future is in workout vids–for sure!

baconzgood January 27, 2011 at 3:04 pm

(In Hulk voice)

RRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH OMNIBUS SPENDING BILL BAD!!!

BerkeleyBear January 27, 2011 at 4:52 pm

Aaron Schock and his abs of steel want a word with you, edgy.

Seriously, when did it become OK for conservative Republican members of Congress to be more into body image and manscaping than San Francisco leather queens?

jus_wonderin January 27, 2011 at 3:00 pm

Give him a break, they need to take out his feeding tube.

Moonbat January 27, 2011 at 3:03 pm

I think I can help answer a few of these:

Who are these people?

Assholes.

Is Ben Quayle lying about having a dog now?

Probably.

Has Mike Allen ever had a better orgasm than the one he has when Ben Quayle tells him he reads his 3 am newsletter?

Never, not even with Ted Haggard's meth stash.

Ruhe January 27, 2011 at 3:08 pm

Well, now, the thing about Ted's meth stash is that he'll tell you where it is but then you have to go in and get it. If you're willing to do that you're both an addict and a queer.

x111e7thst January 27, 2011 at 3:03 pm

Uh, looks like you got a knot in yr. ASCII wang, there…

mrblifil January 27, 2011 at 4:06 pm

I took it for a tattoo.

elviouslyqueer January 27, 2011 at 3:05 pm

Great. I've watched two of these fucking vids, and now I can't get the stench of vinegar and water out of my office.

Oh, and is it just me, or does Mike Allen look like a cross between Karl Rove and a constipated tortoise?

OneYieldRegular January 27, 2011 at 3:05 pm

Lemme get this straight – are you suggesting that somehow what happened in Arizona is more important than Ben Quayle's dog?

baconzgood January 27, 2011 at 3:05 pm

That picture of him at the top is my new wall paper on my work desktop.

elviouslyqueer January 27, 2011 at 3:10 pm

I love that pic too. It reminds me of the face-melting Nazi in "Raiders of the Lost Ark."

ShiftyParadigm January 27, 2011 at 6:11 pm

1o extra fists if you work at the American Enterprise Institute.

Ruhe January 27, 2011 at 3:06 pm

The purported benefit of the P90-X "system" is its incorporation of the "muscle confusion" strategy. Clearly Ben is satisfied with mere confusion.

edgydrifter January 27, 2011 at 3:11 pm

His father used to play the tapes softly while Ben slept, to make his "skull muscle" as strong as Daddy Dan's.

OneDollarJuana January 27, 2011 at 3:30 pm

I confuse my muscles by tossing a coin to see which hand I grab my next beer with.

Tommmcatt January 27, 2011 at 6:01 pm

In just seven days, I can make you a MAN!

Crank_Tango January 27, 2011 at 3:08 pm

Well, since I refuse to watch bullshit like that, I am going to assume he was sneezing in that screen grab.

SexySmurf January 27, 2011 at 3:12 pm

I just assumed Mike Allen was blowing him.

baconzgood January 27, 2011 at 3:16 pm

It's his "O" face.

Extemporanus January 27, 2011 at 3:28 pm

Correction: It's his "Oe" face.

ttommyunger January 27, 2011 at 3:12 pm

Ben found a muscle or Mike groped around and found it for him? BTW, only males have prostates; so, he's got THAT going for him. BTW, I had some Ben on my boot one time, but I scraped it off.

x111e7thst January 27, 2011 at 3:26 pm

Did Quayle the younger get that ben on your boot. I ask because experience with puppies suggests that you can cure that sort of behavior with a rolled up newspaper.

jus_wonderin January 27, 2011 at 3:30 pm

Or, rolling their nose it it.

ttommyunger January 27, 2011 at 4:57 pm

A Burlap Bag in a body of water in their case; no known remedy for stupidity on this planet.

SmutBoffin January 27, 2011 at 3:12 pm

I got nuthin' to say about this guy, though I may in the future when his private vices (coke? trannies?) become public knowledge.

Angry_Marmot January 27, 2011 at 8:13 pm

They don't need private vices; wake up in that family and the screaming inside your head never stops.

Chet Kincaid January 27, 2011 at 3:14 pm

Quayle seems more like a Shake Weight® kinda guy.

SayItWithWookies January 27, 2011 at 3:14 pm

What a hard-hitting interview. Did Allen ask what Quayle's favorite color was? I was just so enthralled I couldn't watch more than half of it before suffering horrific flashbacks to boring cocktail party conversations between strangers. There's nothing that makes your mark as a journalist like buttonholing a freshman congressman in a time of such tumult as this and asking him about his dogs.

smokefilledroommate January 27, 2011 at 3:16 pm

Catahoola Leopard Dog? whatever, shut up.

x111e7thst January 27, 2011 at 3:27 pm

Re: His picking the Hottest Woman in Scottsdale for that sleazy website
Now that I know what he looks like, he must have been "dating" the candidates Ben Roethlisberger-style.

"I'm not DTF, I just like to F".

hagajim January 27, 2011 at 3:19 pm

Didn't watch the tape – but my assumption is that the invterview went something like this:

Politico: What did you think about the attack on Congresswoman Giffords?
Quayle Daaaaaahhhhrrrrrr – my name is Ben!

LiveToServeYa January 27, 2011 at 3:20 pm

Smell the failure.

Monsieur_Grumpe January 27, 2011 at 3:29 pm

Mike Allen used to chew on his hair as he asked questions like…
What's your favorite color? Mine is red!
Do you like french fries I mean freedom fries? I do!
Do these pants make me look fat?

Allen can't chew on his hair any more but he still asks stupid questions.

i_AM_ready January 27, 2011 at 3:30 pm

My favorite part:

Ben: "I was really sore for a few days…."
Mike Allen: [awkward pause, drools slightly]

DemonicRage January 27, 2011 at 5:01 pm

You caught the vibe, too. Tell me about your workout routines, Ben, and….did you sweat a lot, and were your muscles sore (drool), was your dog there? Did he try to sniff the parts that were the most sweaty? (jizz in pants)

OneDollarJuana January 27, 2011 at 3:34 pm

This is clearly trying to emulate BookTV's "Afterwords" interviews, but without the intelligence. Or the interest.

crybabyboehner January 27, 2011 at 3:36 pm

Mike Allen wins 3 a.m.

How long until Pierce Bush gets to Congress?

horsedreamer_1 January 28, 2011 at 10:37 am

I'd say about eight years.

Katydid January 27, 2011 at 3:40 pm

There's a reason print and Web reporters aren't teevee reporters. We need to beat every news editor who has ever said, "You know what's a good idea? Let's start putting rich media on our Website."

MinAgain January 27, 2011 at 3:59 pm

How does Mike Allen manage to breathe with his head so far up Ben Quayle's ass?

mrblifil January 27, 2011 at 4:03 pm

He may not have had cancer yet, but I'm sure his prostate has been thoroughly explored. And then some.

LionelHutzEsq January 27, 2011 at 4:06 pm

I think from now on, all politicians should be the not-quite-as-bright children of ineffectual former politicians with rented children.

Ducksworthy January 27, 2011 at 5:27 pm

Recreating the British aristocracy, aka inbred upper class twits

EdFlintstone January 27, 2011 at 4:09 pm

The only way Mike Allen would of liked Ben more is if he said he was a member of the John Birch society, like Allen's father.

frostbitefalls January 27, 2011 at 4:11 pm

Finally, some Real Journalism on the wonkette!

imissopus January 27, 2011 at 4:58 pm

Wait, this isn't an old outtake from Life Goes On?

Ducksworthy January 27, 2011 at 5:25 pm

Was this kid born as a result of artificial insemination? I can neither believe that Dan was capable of an erection, that his semen was competent or that he could direct his wanger into the correct orifice on the Marilyn.

Extemporanus January 27, 2011 at 5:50 pm

I sincerely apologize for not providing a high quality Photoshopped desecration of the cover of the recently reviewed O: A Presidential Novel that more artfully replaced the big eared Obama "O" illustration with a dick headed Quayle "Q", you unimaginative fucking retards, but one can only do so much with just an iPhone and a fifth of whiskey.

donner_froh January 27, 2011 at 7:44 pm

If the ability to spell English words runs in the family then Ben probably thinks he hasn't had prostrate cancer yet.

snoopyfan2010 January 27, 2011 at 8:20 pm

Ewwwwwwwww

JackObin January 27, 2011 at 9:59 pm

DCHatesMe January 28, 2011 at 1:00 am

In the morning, if my face is a little puffy I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. Then a honey almond body scrub ..

Negropolis January 28, 2011 at 3:21 am

This guy is such a moron. I honestly can't think of much else to say.

BTW, can anyone bring up the scandal of when he was found to be writing for a racy website?

cheaphits January 28, 2011 at 5:56 am

You would expect Arizona to have a prime entree in the "World's Dumbest Legislator Contest" but they have truly outdone themselves with The Honorable Ben Quayle (R-AZ) – he has some very tough competition, but certainly seems to hold his own.

Is anyone else getting the same bad taste in their mouth and foul odor the accompanied the election of "Dubya the Destroyer" as governor of Texas a few years ago?

Gratuitous World January 28, 2011 at 9:10 am

never go full quayle.

Oblios_Cap January 28, 2011 at 9:19 am

Quailman did have a dog as a sidekick.
