Texas Senate candidate Beto O’Rourke (D) on Monday apologized for writing a review of a Broadway musical in 1991 that detailed the actresses’ “phenomenally large breasts and tight buttocks.”
Politico on Monday resurfaced the review O’Rourke wrote when he was 19 years old for the Columbia Daily Spectator, the university’s student newspaper.
The review from the Oct. 10, 1991 edition of the paper was written under the byline Robert O’Rourke and offers a sharp critique of the musical “The Will Rogers Follies.”
O’Rourke criticized the “perma-smile actresses whose only qualifications seem to be their phenomenally large breasts and tight buttocks.”
He wrote that the entire performance was “one of the most glaring examples of the sickening excesses and moral degradations of our culture.”
O'Rourke said the show was “produced and directed in such a showy, glitzy, and ultimately, tacky manner, that one cannot help feeling disgusted throughout the show.”
The musical went on to win six Tony Awards, Politico noted.
O’Rourke issued an apology to Politico on Monday after the story was published.
"I am ashamed of what I wrote and I apologize. There is no excuse for making disrespectful and demeaning comments about women," he said after the story published.
Politico was first notified O’Rourke’s review by an opponent of his Senate campaign against incumbent Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
Are the polls still saying the race is close? I think Cruz is a jerk, but he’s our jerk. I can’t imagine anyone other than the lunatic left fringe voting for Beto.

Pollutico and the rest of the Partisan Media Shills do their usual bang-up job of vetting Demagogic Party candidates.
Irish Boob = Beta O’Cuck.
Is there anyone more fraudulent than this gamma cuck “Beto” (I’m excluding Richard Blumenthal, of course).
Beto.
Beto?
“O”Rourke”?
Sheesh.
#29. No, he was called “Bresto” as a child but changed it to Beto when he realized that the actress in the play was a real woman and he didn’t like real women.
The real question is: “What would he do if Stormy Daniel’s wanted to campaign for him”?
I’ll keep you abreast of breaking news and wind.
