Virgil Goode is the patriotic Republican congressman who threatened to deport Representative Keith Ellison, an American citizen from Minneapolis who was sworn in on Thomas Jefferson’s Koran. Once upon a time Rep. Goode had a press secretary named Linwood Duncan. This Duncan fellow was Goode’s press secretary for many years! And then, suddenly, he had “health problems” and had to retire after it turned out he had a line or two in a terrible gay coming-of-age movie shot in Danville. But that’s not even the worst of it! Duncan may have been complicit in the UNSPEAKABLE VIOLATION OF A FAX LINE.

Stay with us here, because this is complicated:

1. This Duncan, press secretary to extremely conservative nut Goode, has a little role in this awful movie.
2. Duncan is also good friends with the writer/producer Jerry Meadors, a man who should be imprisoned forever for this sort of dialogue:

Peter (freshman in bed with Ian, his graduate student poetry T.A.): “I’m scared.” Ian: “Don’t be, it’ll go away.” Peter: “Promise?” Ian: “Yeah.”

3. Meadors sends his terrible movie to a Toronto gay and lesbian film festival, and provides VIRGIL GOODE’S OFFICE FAX LINE as a way to contact him.
4. Everybody laughs because Virgil Goode is now a godless sodomite, having (unknowingly?) whored out his fax line to promote a movie about brainless young men in college fucking each other.

EXEUNT OMNES.

Virgil Goode would make an awesome gay porn name.

Slow news day?

mattbolt November 3, 2008 at 9:32 am

I mean, some scandals are a stretch, but this is some Stretch Armstrong shit. We’re a whole 2 degrees of seperation from an actual gay, here. Call me when our buddy Virgil gets caught using that fax line to send pictures of him in a fursuit with strategically cut-out holes to a local boy scout troop.

JoeFannyPack November 3, 2008 at 9:33 am

Wait til the news comes out about Virgil’s gay Japanese brother Fukmiso Goode.

bignutz2 November 3, 2008 at 9:33 am

That report made my head hurt. Oh, and there’s a joke somewhere there about being goo’ed but it’s too early.

The cunnilingus movie is next. Goode, Eatin’.

demtard November 3, 2008 at 9:37 am

Oh… A Republican in some form of gay sex scandal?
*yawn*

WagTehGod November 3, 2008 at 9:37 am

I guess the best gay sex GOP scandals really do end with Cocktober.

Fly-over Correspondent November 3, 2008 at 9:38 am

The fact that Goode apparently employed a known gay should be enough to get him defeated, excommunicated, deported, spindled, folded, and mutilated.

slappypaddy November 3, 2008 at 9:41 am

So this disqualifies him from office? I thought it was a requirement for the position? What’s the prob?

wet bread November 3, 2008 at 9:44 am

I actually saw that movie. I’ve seen worse.

HuskyMescan November 3, 2008 at 9:46 am

Not only is Virgil Goode gay, but he’s into big mooslin afro-cock.

Cogito Ergo Bibo November 3, 2008 at 9:46 am

The really stupid thing is that story got incredible traction here in the district. Tom Perriello, the Democratic challenger and a really super nice guy, had NOTHING to do with this admitted stretch beyond stretching, but the far right wacko fundies in the district are completely appalled that Goode was thanked in the credits of the movie and had his office phone number listed as a contact number for the movie on some Canadian website. To them, it’s a whole smoking gun of gayness.

The more interesting part of the story surrounds the fact that Goode’s wife and the press secretary were on the board of a local theater (the one where the movie locally premiered) when Goode brought home a big fat earmark for the theater. Apparently, for Goode, goverment is about rewarding your friends, not helping your district.

bellesouth November 3, 2008 at 9:49 am

Man. Bor-iiiiiiing.

ManchuCandidate November 3, 2008 at 9:53 am

Comeon GOP goobers, it’s Canada City. We’re all supposed to be gay married hosers who waste pwecious rich people’s money smoking our pot and using our “free” universal healthcare.

Fear of a Black Reagan November 3, 2008 at 9:59 am

What don’t you people understand? This is a rock-solid tenet of Republicanism, scientifically proven by creation science. The true facts are very simple:

Gays = bad
Dudes fucking each other = hot

The Pumpernickel November 3, 2008 at 10:05 am

what is it with republicans being secretly closeted? passing anti-gay legislation isn’t going to fool anyone! legislative denial is most definitely the worst kind.

Yeah, if I found myself associated with any of the movies made for the gay market these days (I guess that stereotype about gays having taste isn’t true, looking at the crap foisted on them by gay filmmakers), I’d retire from my job in disgrace too. And I work in a cube farm.

TGY November 3, 2008 at 10:07 am

Who uses an idiot FAX line as a first method of contact?

He represents that TRUE Virginia, the one that is more ‘Southern” in Nature.

We just didn’t know that “southern” was the new euphemism for the BUTTSECKS!!!!

gives that phrase “Southern Style” a whole new meaning….

[re=160564]Iggy Plop[/re]: sadly, he pronounces it “Gude”. I guess he is too modest to pronounce it “good”.

hahahahahahahahahahaha

PsycGirl November 3, 2008 at 10:28 am

This guy’s district is near mine and the name Goode is pronounced as if it were the past tense of (the nonexistent verb) “goo”. Sorta ironic.

Sussemilch November 3, 2008 at 10:28 am

Yes Santa, there is a closet in Virginia.

PsycGirl November 3, 2008 at 10:30 am

[re=160619]Doglessliberal[/re]: Ha indeed!
There is NOTHING modest about that guy. As far as I know, anyway.

The Neoskeptic November 3, 2008 at 10:30 am

[re=160583]Cogito Ergo Bibo[/re]: BTW: Virginians in the 5th district – apparently there’s a televised debate between Goode and Periello tonight!

Doglessliberal November 3, 2008 at 10:31 am

[re=160628]PsycGirl[/re]: no, he is a first-class a-hole.

Cogito Ergo Bibo November 3, 2008 at 10:31 am

[re=160607]Giant Robot[/re]: Perriello has been particularly slandered. Goode’s commercials call Perriello a “New York lawyer” which basically boils down to the fact that Perriello spent 2 years in NYC and got his bar license there, despite being born and raised in the district (apparently “NY lawyer” is a bad thing, which is something I don’t understand anyway, if you were born in the district). Goode also did a deliberate job of trying to make the very clean cut caucasian Perriello look dark and menacing by picking a bearded picture of Perriello taken when he was working in Africa with groups that helped end warfare in Liberia and Sierra Leone.

When you don’t have the arguments on your side, you make the other guy look scary.

Paterlanger November 3, 2008 at 10:34 am

[re=160603]azw88[/re]: There’s a new lifestyle magazine out titled, I kid you not, “Garden and Gun” tagged as a “guide to the new south”. So now I’m wondering if they mean something different by Gun than what I was thinking at first.

Trollop November 3, 2008 at 10:34 am

Didn’t Goode used to be a Democrat? I think that helps explain why this pseudo-gay-sex scandal just doesn’t compare to the shenanigans of his new GOP associates.

dougbob November 3, 2008 at 10:37 am

praise jebus! i used to live in Virgil Goode’s crappy litle district and hope he gets his whatever handed to him on election day. the guy is an idiot. and i don’t care where he puts his thingie.

Giant Robot November 3, 2008 at 10:43 am

[re=160633]Cogito Ergo Bibo[/re]: Pollster has Perriello down by 12 points. Maybe too much to hope for an upset but it would be pretty sweet…

azw88 November 3, 2008 at 10:45 am

[re=160636]Paterlanger[/re]: Yes, and their theme song is “Happiness is a Warm Gun” or is that “Happiness is warm cum”

guess the both mean the same thing!

Cogito Ergo Bibo November 3, 2008 at 10:46 am

[re=160630]The Neoskeptic[/re]: Whuh? A real televised debate? Goode’s been running scared from that for months now! Who is televising it?

This asshole cannot leave my district soon enough. He’s the embodiment of just about everything I hate.

Cogito Ergo Bibo November 3, 2008 at 10:53 am

[re=160649]Giant Robot[/re]: There’s an internal that showed it as an 8 pt. race a couple of weeks back (the most recent of the polls). There really aren’t any truly recent polls. Nothing since the big media blitz started on both sides. Certainly, nothing since the Danville paper endorsed Perriello or since the “Eden’s Curve” crap hit. I’m crossing my fingers that Hopey’s coattails will be big enough to drag Perriello with him. Particularly given the huge numbers of undecideds in all the polls. The most fascinating number I saw was in an early October SurveyUSA poll which showed that Perriello’s supporters were solid, while nearly half of those claiming to support Goode also stated that they were open to changing their minds. If the district breaks for Obama, lightning really could strike.

gurukalehuru November 3, 2008 at 10:57 am

[re=160619]Doglessliberal[/re]: No problem at all. Goode rhymes with lewd dude, crude and rude, not to mention pompous attitude, pious rectitude, prancing with young boys in the nude and, as a couple of people already mentioned, gooed, but I’ll leave that one to somebody with superior photoshop skills.

gurukalehuru November 3, 2008 at 10:59 am

Has nobody noticed, that film festival was in TORONTO. He was consortin’ with some furrin homersexuals.

When I was a brainless young college student fucking other branless young college students, I did an internship under Linwood in the Danville office and got the distinct impression he would’ve loved to be fucking brainless young college students himself.

This film is gay in the sense that it is lame, right?

Does Virgil Goode have a part in the film? That’d be even better!

Cogito Ergo Bibo November 3, 2008 at 12:32 pm

[re=160848]thefrontpage[/re]: Nope. They just thank him in the credits at the end of the film. Which is actually enough of a connection for most of the far right whack jobs we have in the district. I’ll just laugh my ass off when they all stay home, rather than vote for either side.
