Sally, Get Your Gun and Elaine? Keep Talking

As if Elaine Donnelly wasn't enough comic relief, in comes the news that Sally Kern has been caught packing some heat in the Oklahoma State Capitol building.

"Anti-gay Okla. lawmaker caught with gun at Capitol" Seems Sally carries with her a loaded .380 semiautomatic handgun.

While you might think it's because of all those crazy gay people threatening her but she's been carrying a gun for much longer than the youtube video controversy.

When asked about her gun, she said she was an "outdoors girl" who had "done some shooting."

I'm not sure what a .380 semiautomatic handgun and the outdoors have in common.

Kern was not arrested, although this was the second time she's brought a loaded gun into the Capitol building.

Meanwhile, Donnelly was ridiculed by the Washington Post today in a piece, Sorry We Asked, Sorry You Told.

My favorite part was the "lesbian group assault" that Donnelly seemed fixated on happened in 1974. It was alleged- never proven. And it was the only one ever reported.

I think Elaine might have some fantasies going on that she can't get out of her head. Maybe she's kinda hoping a group of lesbians will show up at her door.

You gotta wonder when someone is so passionately against "women gazing at another woman's breasts." What does she dream about at night?

I might send her a thank you note. Her testimony was so damaging to her cause we might just see an end to Don't Ask, Don't Tell.

I just saw this on Pam's House Blend, Don't Ask, Don't Tell Supporter Donnelly provides comic relief during House hearing.



Elaine Donnelly, someone with no military background and of a group that does no research, actually is invited to testify at the subcommittee hearing.

Gotta be some big campaign dollars moving around to get in a seat that usually requires credentials.
