There are worse reasons for being a libertarianDo libertarians make better lovers? The
writers of Desperate
Housewives think so, but ABC is
not so sure
Oh my. It is not a show I follow, but evidently
even Desperate
Housewives has it's occasional libertarian
moment.
Having fans type "Desperate sex" into their Web browsers was apparently not the sort of grassroots marketing campaign ABC was hoping for to hype one of its top shows. The Alphabet Net is calling foul after a rough cut of a sex scene from the upcoming season of Desperate Housewives was leaked on YouTube, nearly a month before the steamy footage was slated to air. "We are looking into the unauthorized clips of Desperate Housewives on YouTube and will be having them taken down," an ABC rep said Friday. The time-stamped, though fully edited, clip runs just over a minute and was made available by two separate YouTube posters--or at least by a YouTube devotee with more than one screen name--last Sunday. As of Friday morning, only one of the posts remained watchable. (The scene is still available by searching YouTube for the TV couple's fan-generated nickname, "Brorson.") The scene features Bree (Marcia Cross) and new boy-toy Orson (Kyle MacLachlan) in bed, with the underwear-clad housewife protesting her partner's attempt to give her oral sex. "I don't do that," she says. "I'm a Republican." "I'm a Libertarian," Orson replies. "I believe in minimizing the role of the state and maximizing individual rights. Trust me, I know what I'm doing." Speaking as a red-blooded Pagan American male who throughly approves of ladies in general (and certain ones in particular), I approve. Hat tip Hammer of Truth.
