The best thing..

[substitute]

..about the coverage of the gay NJ governor and his resignation is that he uses the word “consensual”, as if he had to make it clear that there wasn’t any Big Gay Rape Action going on in the governor’s mansion, or in order to admit that he consented to it, and it’s not clear which, and it’s not clear which anyone would think is worse.

“Yeah so I was sitting in my office minding my own business when this really really homosexual man came in and insisted that we have sex! I mean he was really INSISTENT!”

versus

“I admit it. Not only did I have the Wrong Sex, but I totally CONSENTED to it. It wasn’t a prison thing, or anything”.
