Right-Wing Sex Envy
Posted by Jill | 11:02 AM

I knew that headline would get you.

I wonder, though, if at least some of the vitriol being directed at Joseph Wilson and Valerie Plame by the right is a lot more complex than simply refusing to believe the Bush Administration and its architect, Karl Rove, are as bad as they are.

I wonder of some of it isn't just good old-fashioned green monster, and I'm not talking about the left-field wall at Fenway Park, either.

I haven't seen this kind of crap directed at a married couple since the Clintons -- another charismatic, attractive couple who dared to flout the right. Let's face it, folks, there's a certain "movie star" quality to the Wilson/Plame marriage. He's a very attractive middle-aged guy, smart, articulate, and tough as nails. She's a real-life Mrs. Peel -- tall, attractive, smart, a mother of adorable twins -- and a spy to boot.

If this ain't a "golden couple", I don't know what is. And if there's one thing a bunch of fat, ugly, mean-spirited, balding, closet cases who haven't had sex in twenty-five years that didn't involve leather, whips, and a $50 hooker can't stand, it's watching a couple as hot as this one.
