I'll never understand how you can be against masturbation.

I'm no fan of Piers Morgan, and I think he did use some sexist language when talking about the "I'm not a witch" ad, but I read the entire transcript, and I think her "borderline sexual harassment" charge is unfounded. I honestly think he'd have made just as much fun of a male politician if there were actual clips of him saying he'd dabbled in witchcraft and that he was anti-masturbation. They do talk quite a bit about her campaign and the Tea Party's rise to prominence, as well, and to most of the other stuff she says "It's in the book" but refuses to talk about, you know, what's in the book.

Ultimately, you don't have failed candidate and noted non-witch Christine O'Donnell on your show to have a serious conversation about fiscal policy. The fact that she's too stupid, naive, and/or poorly advised to understand that doesn't make Morgan the bad guy IMO.

I'm happy to report that it took me a few moments to remember who Christine O'Donnell is.

If you don't want to be asked questions about sex, don't try to tell other people how they should have sex.

What a rational and logical position.

Which is why it's so unpopular in the Republican party. ;)

Alabama actually has a ban on the sale of sex toys (vibrators, dildoes, etc.) -- some places market them as "personal massagers".

haha I was going to say this. Alabama's already part of the way there!

The funniest thing about the year I lived in Alabama was that every time I would get in my car to drive to a different state, the first thing I'd see on the interstate when crossing the state line out of Alabama would be XXX ADULT NOVELTY EMPORIUM. lol. RUN FOR THE BORDER, ALABAMANS, TO BUY SOME FORBIDDEN VIBRATORS.
