Ron Paul And Orgasms …

… the essential ingredients of a blogger’s perfect headline.

Of course, we would never stoop so low.

Instead, we’ll just let you know of a fine piece of blogging over at the L.A. Times’ Top of the Ticket blog.

Here’s an excerpt you probably won’t want to read:

Orgasms and politics, the real choice

Apparently several hundred thousand readers of this website have gotten lost online in recent days on their way to this politics blog and accidentally clicked instead on a long story item headlined, “Science of the orgasm.” That’s been the most e-mailed thing from LATimes.com for two days running now. No explanation why.

It’s a perfectly fine professional story by our colleague Regina Nuzzo exploring how science is exploring the mysterious human orgasm, which is no doubt a good thing in terms of social and cultural progress and fecundity. No politician — or political writer — in their right mind would oppose such scientific exploration because orgasms are generally considered good things even by Republicans, although party policy strictly forbids talking about them.

And, so far anyway, orgasms have escaped government regulation, taxation and licensing, although you never know with the Democrats looking pretty strong this year…

You get the picture.  And if you didn’t read it, consider yourself a far better person. Like Ron Paul.

Ron Paul
