While this sounds like a garden-variety Republican Sexual Hypocrite, [Tennessee State Senator Paul] Stanley takes it up a notch with his legislative CV: 1) he campaigned against the right of gays and lesbians to adopt (“When you’re married, there’s a commitment there,” Stanley said last year, while discussing legislation to prohibit gay people from adopting children); and….drum roll…2) he introduced a bill prohibiting viewing porn while driving (WTF!? Is this some kind of rampant problem in Tennessee?)
Stanley, married father of two, was having an affair with an intern. Intern’s boyfriend found photos, tried blackmail. Sting set up. Boyfriend arrested. Politician “will continue his social conservative legislative agenda.”
