Woah. OK now let's be fair. That was before Larry's reduction surgery. A man can only take so much of daily "Bro" wearing. Men feel confined and itchy in underwire, and beaches are out of the question fer sure. ;-)

Political affiliation is a protected class in federal employment as of 1998 IIRC.

Bubba wanted to make sure some of his sycophants stayed in the gov't.

Hey Richard, I'll bet Lar is diligently working to find *your* last photo session proofs somewhere on the internet. This "hostage pic" war could get ugly. ;-)

I'm just glad *my* pics are hard to come by. ;-)

News Flash! Not every republican is anti-porn.

I could not agree more! Hear, hear, I say!

Hey Quilla, what in the aitch are those white, light rays seemingly emminating from Burt's tweeter zone? Whuuh?

He seems happy about it, whatever they are. I had forgotten about his pose for Playgirl. LOL.

Women have thier own versions of porn ;)

Movies & pictures don't do what books can (allow imaginations to run free :) )

Isn't porn just some fast way of saying popcorn? That's what guys tell me. And they tell me it's OK, not to think that it's bad. ;-)

Miss B, I haven't a clue, but that's got to be the funniest thing I've ever read on FR. Tweeter zone! Sounds like something Barney Frank would say walking by a candy store. ;-)

The Playgirl editor is a federal employee?

What state is Playgirl based in? You can look high and low, but you won't find my Republican voter registration. Not because I'm not a Republican, but because I'm a Texan, and Texas is an open primary state.

I call the teenage girls that wear their jeans SOOO low, wearing them down to their "tweeter zone."

And I tell them so it I happen to know them. And I tell them that creepy old men's eyes are locked onto the zone, and that THAT'S NOT HOT (as well as just not being cool, period.)

I give the breezy-bellied girls my best disgusted look.

And I can do a KILLER disgusted look, trust me. ;-) It works, try it.

Luckily I don't personally know many tweeter zone jeans wearers. ;-)

Political affiliation is not a protected class, and I'm glad about that.

It may not be a protected class, but employees can still sue over hiring/firing based on political idealogy.

My company's insurance firm offers a rider for just that instance. Pretty scary.

I would have thought Zip's bit of press would have been good for the magazine. Though, really, the original article was kind of confusing. Sounds like Playgirl hasn't yet outted itself as a gay magazine yet.

[ I also received a phone call from a leading official from Playgirl magazine, in which he stated with a laugh, "I wouldn't have hired you if I knew you were a Republican. ]

This should be noised about a bit...

Merely the tip of the slimeberg.. The only ones that DON'T know this happens are RINOs.. Democrats do, and real republicans do already.. RINOs would invent some infraction to have caused this blatant attempt at bigotry.. Course a "republican" working at Playgirl might be a RINOs herself.. might make a real republican of her.. I smell a law suit.. might even be class action at that..
