Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty is most likely in a lot of hot water today for a comment he made during a radio show. Pawlenty joked that he wished his wife's desire for him (in the carnal sense) was as intense as her love of fishing.

Gov. Tim Pawlenty spent the fishing opener with his wife, Mary Pawlenty, on Big Pelican Lake in Breezy Point, Minn.

If an aside uttered by Pawlenty on Mike Max's radio show on WCCO-AM is any indication, they may very well have spent their every waking moment fishing.

"I have a wife who genuinely loves to fish. I mean, she will take the lead and ask me to go out fishing, and joyfully comes here," the governor said before adding, "She loves football, she'll go to hockey games and, I jokingly say, 'Now, if I could only get her to have sex with me.'"

This may be off topic a bit, but what in the hell is that NewsMax add with Obama's picture doing on this page?

Newsmax? I subscribed to them for a trial period in order to get a cool hat and a funny deck of cards, but those people are right of the universe.

Creepy.

Only a man who is self assured can make such a comment. Those who find it over the top probably aren't getting any.

Do you really think that's the case, FirstShirt? I wonder ... especially after her on-air talk about when she experienced a severe attack of appendicitis, & said her husband wouldn't call 911 for her or take her immediately to the hospital (he had to, apparently, shower first while she was lying down in excrutiating pain, fearing she might die). If I had been in her shoes, I wouldn't have allowed him back into the house after that.

You mean she's not begging for the whole minute and a half of him sweating and grunting on top of her?
No wonder she prefers to fish,... I mean look at him! You can tell that dude never gave her one.

LOL. It's so funny. What's the big deal. He was joking. Besides if his name is any indication then we know he is getting "p-aw-lenty".

Oh, if only you could award such a thing.

People who find such a labored attempt at humor funny (p aw lenty), have no business selecting posts for awards.

The guy made a joke, IT was probably funny in the context of the conversation. But the p-aw-lenty comment is not. The person making the word joke even gives you a chance to realise s/he is stupid prior to your reading the joke, that is to say, s/he prefaces the comment with:

"if his name is any indication."

But we all know that It simply isn't any indication. It never is.

But hey, maybe I am being too harsh.

It's just that, if you follow the train of thought for this guy (pawlenty, pawlenty...hmm, almost sounds and looks kind of like 'plenty.' Oh my god, that means that I can make a joke about the amount of sex he might get. Oh lord this is funny), it's really hard to find it worthy of a giggle.

Not convinced that it's not funny? Okay, let me try a different tack.

If the guy's name were truly "an indication" of the amount of ANYTHING he might get, then it would follow that he might, for instance, get pawlenty . . . of rejections for sex.

So the best that we can say, in all fairness, is that if his name is any indication, we still don't know squat, and that's just not very funny.

Is this because you don't like to have sex?

Don't like men?

Already taken?

Don't like the photo?

Don't like that he joked about wives who don't like sex?

Don't like a tall man with a tux?

What?

Don't like sex with political people?

I"ve heard of Blue Dog Democrats, but never blue¦oh well, never mind. Perhaps Mrs. Pawlenty is displeased with her husband"s assault on healthcare funding for Minnesota"s most vulnerable residents or with the hissy-fit he threw when his veto of a much needed transportation bill (roads and BRIDGES) was overridden with the help of six members of his own Party-who were promptly stripped of leadership positions and generally disowned by the state GOP. Or, it could be his penchant for pandering to the extremists of his party rather than governing responsibly (sound familiar?). At any rate, if the ambitious Mr. Pawlenty continues to develop his "foot in mouth" routine he will greatly improve his chances of pairing-up with a master of the discipline, Senator John McCain.

Maybe Spitzer and Pawlenty can get a quantity discount at Emporer's Club ... I don't know.... maybe a two for one? Or maybe 2 - 2 diamond girls instead of 1 - 4 diamond girl?

Wait a minute! Wait a minute! What's a Republican doing complaining about his wife not having sex with him? I thought Republican men only have sex with young men. And as for Republican women? Closest thing to slavery we have in this country. But they seem to like it.

No, you should: to attack the guy as having anger issues based on his light-hearted response is a dead give away that you have issues . . . period.

What's so shocking about the statement, if he's 40 something or over and his wife is going through menopause he might as well join the other 50,000,000 men going through the same thing!!!!!!!!!!!
