Republicans posting naked pictures on GRINDR to show off their weight loss

Posted: 8/25/11 at 4:44pm

"Indiana State Rep. Phillip Hinkle, the anti-gay marriage Indiana Republican accused of offering to pay a young man he met over Craigslist for "a good time," admits that he paid the man but contends that they didn't do anything illicit — they just talked about "baseball and the view."

(Oh wait: the view? Not "The View?")

He admitted to the Indianapolis Star on Tuesday that he did exchange e-mails with 18-year old Kameryn Gibson through Craigslist, on the section of the site meant for "casual encounters" between two men. Hinkle also admitted that he paid Gibson $80 "for a good time"....Hinkle said that when Gibson got there they just talked about "baseball and the view," and that when Hinkle came out of the bathroom Gibson had left, and stole the money, the iPad and the Blackberry. "I went to the edge," Hinkle said, "but I didn't fall over the edge."

HEY! NEW REPUBLICAN GAY SEXCAPADES BELOW!

Discuss the view of what? The view from his bedroom window? The view from the bridge? Maybe Gotham can explain...

The view from the boy's taint.

Don't you mean, 'A view of the boys taint'?

It was the view from his hee-hoo. Kid got scared and made a mad dash, but not before he grabbed the iPad and Blackberry on his way out. Serves the Republican perv right.

I love edging. It's a thing, Rep. Hinkle.

Oh please, he didn't go over the edge because the boy left! He makes it sound like he had restraint or something.

It took two weeks to come up with this story? At least Hinkle is working to break the stereotype of gays being spontaneous and creative.

Posted: 8/26/11 at 3:33pm

If he had restraints the hustler wouldn't have made off with his stuff! Let that be a lesson, Republican closet cases!

Of course he only planned to talk baseball and The View. What did he expect for $80? $150 is my base for out services and that's just to get me into the room.

Oh good lord. Now a Republican from Puerto Rico claims he posted his picture naked on all fours on GRINDR to show off how much weight he's lost. Really.

"When a Puerto Rican TV show confronted him, Arango neither confirmed nor denied making the profile but offered this excuse:

"You know I've been losing weight. As I shed that weight, I've been taking pictures. I don't remember taking this particular picture but I'm not gonna say I didn't take it. I'd tell you if I remembered taking the picture but I don't."

All an innocent mistake. Simple misunderstanding. I thought "Grindr" was a community for trading work-out tips? I've been having trouble toning my torso. Also, this area right here, lemme get the angle right so you can see it —"
Does this sex site make my ass look big?

I wonder where Goth is and why he is not expressing his outrage. If these were Democrats he would have started four threads about it by now. According to Goth these type of things happen ONLY TO DEMOCRATS. I'm guessing someone in the liberal media set these two innocent men up. I mean, what other explanation can there be?


Oh, and you just Know Arango sent pics to G.W. Bush. I mean,C'mon!

Neither one has been subjected to the sort of campaign that Antony Wiener was and neither has resigned his seat.

Only 4 replys on that site, but they are funny!

"I don't remember taking this particular picture but I'm not gonna say I didn't take it. I'd tell you if I remembered taking the picture but I don't."

How do you not remember taking a picture like that unless you were really drunk or high? And I guess he doesn't remember posting it online?

Or signing up for Grindr. Or creating a Grindr profile. Or sending the pic to someone on Grindr.

SMDH - - - I don't get why anyone, let alone politicians would even put themselves out there like this.

Typical closeted, hypocritical Republican SOB:

In 2009, he voted in favor of a measure that sought to constitutionally ban gay marriage in Puerto Rico.

Doesn't matter how much weight he says he lost, his ass still looks huge in that picture.

[CarlosAlberto]

Posted: 8/27/11 at 2:28pm

He's Puerto Rican we all have "huge" asses. It comes with the gene pool.

[romantico]

Posted: 8/27/11 at 2:37pm

Oh come on! Just because a guy gets on all fours and posts pictures of his anus on a gay website does not automatically mean he is gay.I'm sure the GOP will have a totally plausible explanation for this misunderstanding.

I'm sure the fair and balanced liberal media will give just as much attention to this story as it did the Anthony Weiner story.I'm certain the New York Post will have this on the cover for the next 2 weeks.Just you wait and see.

RESIGNED.





Puerto Rico senator resigns after nude photos surface

It was nice of Fox News to cleverly insert a photo of the disgraced Republican senator posing with BILL CLINTON.


/Wait, what?

[romantico]

Posted: 8/28/11 at 11:09pm

At least HE resigned. How about all the other Republican hypocrites who refuse to resign? Oh,and where in the hell is Goth. Goth claims ONLY DEMOCRATS have sex scandals. Maybe he can explain this whole mess to all of us. I'm sure this guy was set up by a Democrat.

Wonderwaiter,you don't think Fox would post a pic of this guy and George Bush now do you? He was Vice ?Chairman of Puerto Rico's committee to re-elect George Bush/?Dick Cheney in 2004. Fox can't remind it's brain dead audience of that inconvenient fact.
