An ode to Klosted Konservative Kreeps [UPDATE]
There once was a cretin named Phil,
Who voted Yes for an anti-gay bill ...
Ah, you know how the rest goes [via TWO]:
Indiana state Rep. Phillip Hinkle (R) is embroiled in controversy after The Indianapolis Star discovered emails appearing to solicit the paid company of a young man, sent from Hinkle’s publicly listed email address.
Doesn’t understand how the Internets work. Check.
[Kameryn] Gibson, whose ad lists him as 20 years old but is actually 18, said he met Hinkle at the hotel, and tried to leave when Hinkle said he was a state politician.
Because who’d believe some kw33r when he says he had sex with a reaLAMErican politician? Wait, what year is it?
He said the lawmaker at first told him he could not leave, grabbed him in the rear, exposed himself to the young man and then later gave him an iPad, BlackBerry cellphone and $100 cash to keep quiet.
Wow. A neo-con who doesn’t understand consent AND attempts to bribe his way out of trouble. Never saw that coming.
Other things it was not possible to predict [via The Indianapolis Star]:
When contacted by The Star about the emails, Hinkle, a Republican who represents portions of Pike and Wayne townships, did not contest the emails but said, “I am aware of a shakedown taking place.”
‘Cos you see, if Gibson hadn’t posted that ad on Craigslist, Hinkle wouldn’t have been forced to offer him a goodie bag. So to speak.
Now, what other surprises can I mine from this completely non-surprising tale? Ah yes, bring on the unintended hilarity!
“I’m trying to get to the bottom of everything involved,” [Peter Nugent, Hinkle’s attorney] said.
Dude, that’s what got Hinkle in trouble.
___________________________________UPDATE_____________________________________
In the course of paying me one hell of a compliment, (two hells, really) Aimai directed my attention to Wonkette’s take on Hinkle’s Hijinx. It contains this excerpt from the I.S. story:
Megan Gibson [K. Gibson’s sister] said that on the drive back, she began receiving a series of calls on the BlackBerry, including one from a woman who said she was Hinkle’s wife.
“I was like, ‘Your husband is gay,’ ” Megan said. “And then she was like, ‘You have the wrong person.’ ”
Megan read her the email address: phinkle46 @comcast.net.
The line went silent.
“Just for a couple seconds,” Megan Gibson said, “and the first thing she said was, ‘Please don’t call the police.’ “
IT WOULD BE IRRESPONSIBLE IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO SPECULATE!
