Rep. Paul Gillmor was found dead at his apartment in his apartment today. Staffers went to his home after the 68-year-old Republican failed to show up for work today. There’s been no official word on cause of death, but some Wikipedia users have a working theory:

The entry has now been reverted and locked, so speculation will have to continue in our comments.

Auto erotic asphyxiation.
The ugly specter of auto erotic asphixiation. Or rough sex. Or necrophilia.
sexual misadventure is an oxymoron.
From the wiki entry, it seems that he left behind a tangled web--didn't appear to live in his own district, then had a too-nice house built by a too-nice deal.
Think he died of the shame of it?
I'm guessing he "wide-stanced" the wrong dude, was followed home and strangled with his own pantyhose...
Either that or his heart gave out when he tried to push out an extremly large turd.
He had a sexual misadventure, just like the Goonies!
Choose Your Own (Sexual Mis)Adventure!
I think he was just being SHIT ON BY PROFESSIONALS, and things just got a little
out of hand.
@dickdogfood: A+
Please please please let it involve a six-foot six MtF dominatrix named Miss Cinnamon, a great deal of latex, and some common household vegetables...
Most months I'd say this would be far to much to hope for, but after the past few weeks, anything goes!
All the earmarks of an Elvis Blumpkin.
He probably had a brain aneurysm or insulin shock or something, and you guys are assholes. (Either that or internal hemorrhaging caused by a particularly violent cornholing. That he asked for.)
Are we sure? [www.gillmorforcongress.com]
I'm gonna pass on this because it seems kinda cruel to speak ill of the dead. But if I were going to comment on this, I'd note that he was a Republican therefore he most likely choked on something other than a pretzel.
Wouldn't Larry Flynt on the other end of the line cause you to have a heart attack? Q.E.D.
Tucker Carlson, NO! It wasn't supposed to go this far!!! You were just supposed to scare him a little!
Vince Foster, James McDougal, Ron Brown, now Paul Gillmor....all I'm saying is, does anybody know where Bill and Hillary Clinton were last night?
@Darwin's Little Darling: I hear there's a big party at Tucker's place--it's BYOB, but the food's on him. Mmm, roast...
Hey, Where's Fredo anyway?
Two words: Shetland. Pony.
Dead at his apartment in his apartment? Shocking!
Death by Wiki-bomb?
Good God. You know, a lot of people on the Hill log onto this website to see a cynical side to the news. A very nice, well-liked man, who had a reputation for bipartisanship and quiet smarts, father of five (including young twins) just was found dead in his apartment and a lot of people are grieving. Can't the schadenfreude and hatefulness be withheld for a few hours past the man's passing? Is it that irresistible to spew your bile here, are your lives so pathetic?
From that picture, anything involving Gillmor and sex would have to be classified as "misadventure."
"Sudden causes" is just the Republican party's way of saying that he died in the arms of a 25 year old cocktail waiter.
When I clicked on to Wiki it said he was found dead with a young boy. That sentence disappeared in a flash though.
from his picture, i have a feeling his days of sexual misadventures were long over before he passed away.
Choked on a tube steak ?
@charrington: Gillmor was one of the first Repubs to call for Fredo's ouster. Other than that, he seems to have been a normal, boring, party-line sort of guy. He was a senior member of Financial Services, so he was involved up to here in this subprime debacle.
@crotchhair:
The ugly sphincter?
Let's not overlook an obscure callback to a big movie when a sex related murder takes place:
"It was just a game...we'd done it before . . ."
--Senator Pat Geary
So that's it: Tom Hagen, Esq. instructed Neri to murder Gillmor while Sen. Geary slept off a drug induced coma timed to occur in the middle of their weekly gay sex romp.
fucking keyboard going to shit when I'm being all witty....
Gillmor sponsored a bill that would ban Wal-Mart from opening its own bank.
What does that tell us? That he was buttfucked to death by the ghost of Sam Walton. And some hired Wal-Mart goons. Who are angry that they don't have health care.
Also the bill was co-sponsored by Barney Frank. Just sayin.'
I would assume that he turned the wet/dry vac from suck to super suck.
@meelar:
"BYOB" At Tucker's, is that Bring Your Own Bum to beat?
Looks like someone forgot his "safety word".
So another republican is tapped out.
@Dr.Douchenozzle: What does this tell us? It's shows that Gillmor acted for the little people, despite being a major holder in an 8-branch bank in Ohio. (Read the Wiki article).
@gjdodger: Right. Gillmor was Duke Cunningham normal. [downwithtyranny.blogspot.com]
And why would an Ohio Republican be anything but saintly?
Good thing his porn buddy cleaned out his stash before the media got there.
@jwood12: No, yes, and yes.
Well, you asked.
@jwood12: When you choose to swim in the kiddie pool, you don't get to complain about the pee.
Has an autopsy been released yet?
Is it vague as to cause of death? Any word on where and it what position the body was found?
@gjdodger: Exactly.
@ARCADIA: Red Ball Harness Set.
@jwood12.
I can understand your point of view, from an angle of political correctness and all that, but...
He was a Republican, therefore his existence was detrimental to many people, and to the human race as a whole.
If it makes me a bad person to say that I'm glad he's dead, then so be it. I'm a bad person.
@ARCADIA:
1. Yes.
2. No. Gillmor choked on a roll of $100 bills which he mistook for a lobbyist's penis.
3. On the couch and leaning to the far right.
have you people no shame? you have offended those nice "people on the Hill," after all they have done for us! the poor dears ...
@henski1: Considered it, my Polish home girl.
In the living room with a diaper while doing a wide stance! Viva la Republican!
Looked at his web site. Typical "protecting our values" bullshit. Probably didn't die doing anything scandalous, but the fact he served so many years and the first most of us have heard of him came with his obituary speaks voluems
@jwood12: Don't come here often, do you?
@jwood12: Take Senator Craig's wiener out of your mouth for a moment and contemplate this: I'll feel more compassion for the turd I'll flush down the toilet tomorrow morning than I will for this serial desecrator of our wonderful country. BTW, does anyone know if his wife is at all hot?
jwood12, how old are his twins? Are we talking Olsen category? Just wondering.
@wolfcatcher: Is she "at all" hot? Have you looked at the husband? I think the cause of death was ugliness. So by the Inverse Proportion Law governing relationships between hot babes and butt-fugly guys, she must be smoking.
Well, he may have died of natural causes. After all, Jack LaLanne he ain't.
* One congressman and one recently-retired congresswoman found dead, separately, in their separate apartments, in Alexandria and Washington. Both Republicans. What Did They Know? * One 44-year-old Hedge Fund manager found floating in the pool at his Florida mansion.
After seeing his face, I understand why some women (men, altar boys...) insist on money before engaging in sex. My guess is he accidentally saw own reflection while self-pleasuring and his eroto-neural system shut down in shock?
Well, Conservapedia defines "sexual" as meaning "patriotic," and "misadventure" as "fervor."
So you see he DID die of it (as is the fate -- Insha'Alla -- of all good Republicans); but as usual the small-brained, big government Libtards at Wikipedia failed to understand the Inherent Truth lying at the core of the statement.
@jwood12: Nothing too sacred, nothing too profane. Our work is too important to be compromised by your squishy, subjective reservations.
