发帖数: 4174 | 1 Virginia's controversial transvaginal ultrasound bill hit one Republican
lawmaker close to home. In the bedroom, to be precise. He said a fellow
lawmaker's television discussion of the bill cost him sex with his wife.
State Del. David Albo (R-Fairfax Station) was addressing the House of
Delegates Friday when he described his failed seduction of his wife Tuesday
night. Albo had driven home from Richmond following debate on the bill,
which would have required women to have a transvaginal ultrasound procedure
before receiving an abortion. (Gov. Bob McDonnell (R) announced this week
that he and Republican lawmakers reached a deal to make the transvaginal
procedure optional instead of mandated.)
Albo's remarks -- which he delivered with laughter -- were aimed in
particular at that TV-talking colleague, Del. David Englin (D-Alexandria), a
leading opponent of the bill.
"Boy's in bed, wife's here, TV, poured some red wine," Albo said of how he
began the night.
Albo then attempted to play some "mood music" for his fellow lawmakers to
help explain how he tried to entice his wife. House members were laughing as
Albo received assistance from another lawmaker in putting on the music.
The next step in his seduction plan: He went to turn on the Redskins Channel
to help put his wife in the mood for love. Apparently, his wife loves the
Washington football team.
On the way to his Redskins seduction, Albo found a news channel that
mentioned his name in the context of the ultrasound bill. On Rachel Maddow's
show on MSNBC, Englin was discussing the ultrasound bill.
Unfortunately for Albo, he and his wife stopped to watch the show -- and his
warm bed turned into a cold shower.
"The show's over, and she looks at me and says, 'I have to go to bed,'" Albo
recounted to further laughter.
He then directly addressed a chuckling Englin.
"If the gentleman's plan was to make sure there was one less Republican in
the world, he did," Albo said. "I expect an apology from him later in person
on the House floor." |
