Anything You Can Do Badly, I Can Use to Render You Worse: The Next Attacks in a Bitter Character Battle in the Virginia Senate Race

While one is delving through the pages of the The Washington Post one might come across something entitled "Allen blasts Webb for Sex Scenes." While this might not cause one to pause at this page (unlike this reader), something does stand, blastingly, out at the end of the reading... Upon further examination of the article by Tim Craig and Michael Shear, these "sex scenes" can be discovered to be passages out of the Democratic opponent of Republican Virginia Senator George Allen, Jim Webb's, latest book.

Badly written fictional sex scenes beget character challenges in this next phase of nasty attacks between the two competitors for the Virginia Senate seat in this year's Senatorial elections. It wasn't as though George Allen himself made any inappropriate statements, such as calling a Webb staffer a "macaca" or monkey. Of course not. It is merely a matter of media. Written statements seem to be more appalling than videotape. After all, you can't trust those new contraptions anyways; only the power of the holy writ.

What sacred - or rather sacreligious- words might have the Senatorial candidate written? Unfortunately, such "literature", as Webb calls it, cannot be reproduced here. But if one is still racking one's brains for information, one can refer to the appropriate page on the Gawker Media's Washingtonian political establishment quippy blog, Wonkette, for the "colorful" prose that shocked the nation (or rather George Allen and his supporters).

After deep reflection of the passage, one blogger audaciously said "And somewhere Mark Foley is desperately looking for his library card..." Just the reaction somewhere I believe Senator Allen is hoping for. After all, if he can read it, what's to stop others, like Foley, from doing the same? What, indeed? Or rather, who? Have any ideas, Senator Allen?
