This Kool-Aid Tastes Familiar

It's late and if I'm not going to go to bed there are a million things I should be working on, but I just can't.  Everywhere I go on the internets I see liberals plotzing over the President saying gays should be allowed to marry.  Doesn't this kool-aid taste a bit familiar? 

First of all, as Stuart mentioned on his Facebook earlier today, why is it that Barack Obama's values "evolve" while Mitt Romney flip-flops?  Kind of a double-standard don't you think?  You have to look at the "hope & change" smoke and mirrors bullshit and all the rhetoric while doing a lot of bad, nasty stuff.  This is pure calculation.  Really?  Joe Biden pushed him to come out and say this?  This was staged, pure and simple. 

OK...Obama said gays should be allowed to marry.  He's the freaking POTUS, what's he going to do about it?    Nothing, that's what.  He found his out..."but it's still up to the states to decide."  Fuck you, dude.  And all the liberals (notice I said liberals, not progressives) are swallowing this stuff all over again.  Why?

Because they've been searching for anything they can to hold on to the "hope" that he'll come around and do something liberal.  Not talk.  DO.  Hey POTUS, how about that Executive Order repealing Don't Ask Don't Tell?  Thought not. 

A lot of my Facebook friends are delirious that this has gone down.  Many of them are also my friends in real life, too.  And I know my tone with this is going to annoy them, but this is the coldest, calculatedest, political move this guy has ever done..  Look at the laundry list of issues he's "pulled the football" from.  [Note: this was written before the "revelation" was announced and I wouldn't use the word "progressive" in the context this author did, but the list is spot on.]

Yes, Barack Obama pulling this stunt does have one good part to it, even though his reason for doing it is wrong.  The President of the United States saying that gays should be allowed to marry is one tiny brick in the wall in the struggle for equality.  But really, it's not as big of a deal as many are making it.  He's a Democrat!  He's supposed to accept same sex marriage.  Think about it...this being such a big deal to so many...doesn't that tell you that maybe the bar is a bit low?

And why now?  Huh?  This wasn't really on the mainstream media's radar right now.  And as many wealthier gays had been holding out in contributing - let's see how many of them start ponying up this week.  Calculated.  Shoot, I'm wondering if another war is right around the corner.

OK...and one last point.  Even if this is legit; real "evolution".  The Green Party and all 3 of the people vying for their nomination have always been down with same-sex marriage.  And every single other issue people who are liberal or progressive claim to stand for. Just sayin.

I'm sure I'll post another time on the "lesser of two evils" anti-logic as we get closer to the election. 

Alrighty...feel free to let me have it in the comments.

Sex Toy Review - Babeland Remote Vibe Panty

I have often wondered how I would like vibrating panties, and when presented with the opportunity to review a pair, I jumped at the chance. 

Dave and I decided to try them out live on the Stuart Bedasso Show one evening.  I was going to have them on, but Dave was going to be in charge of the remote.

So the show watered… at some point, I had forgotten that I had them on and then all of a sudden – BOOM – or maybe it was ZAP.  Dave turned them on.  Needless to say, I jumped.  Dave would let them run for a minute or so and then turn them off…just as I was beginning to focus only on my clitoral stimulation.

Then, near the end of the show, he left them on and yes, a Stuart Bedasso first, I had an orgasm on the show. 

So now you are asking yourself, how did they get away with that? 

Melyssa did not hear the vibration happening right next to her.  She swore she could not hear a thing. 

Overall, I enjoyed the Babeland Remote Vibe Panties.  It produced a very nice orgasm.  The panties fit pretty well and the egg relatively stayed in place (I had to make one adjustment during the show).  I think the best part of it is the anticipation – letting someone else have the remote, you never know what’s going to happen as there are 4 different vibration settings (pulses and straight out vibrator mode).  If you were to control the vibration yourself, it wouldn’t be as fun.  They’re pretty cool.  

Just a quick warning, the egg does use up the batteries pretty quickly, but vibrating panties are not for everyday use anyway...I think.    – Eve


From the Remote Master:

I had fun doing that show.  If you go back and listen, you may hear the click of the remote in my microphone but it wasn’t totally loud.  You don’t have 100% control as to get to one of the different vibration settings you have to click through the others and there’s no dial so you’re not really sure what you’re setting it to.  I just went by Eve’s facial expressions and body language as to when to turn it on and off and what settings. 

At first I wished that the remote had a longer range, but then I realized that if it did I would probably be opening and closing people’s garage doors all over the neighborhood.  Hell, I may even start messing with someone’s pacemaker.  If you’re in the same room, you should be in good shape. 

So, should you use this in public?  Well, I tried to convince our review to wear them to the movies, but she made an excellent point.  Regular listeners of the podcast know that Eve tends to…uh…make a pretty fantabulous mess when she comes.  So if we were to take the Babeland Remote Vibe Panties to the Cineplex, no one probably would have heard it but there definitely would have been a clean-up in Aisle 5 if you know what I’m saying.  So, if the person who is going to be wearing these bad boys is a squirter, pick your scenarios carefully. 

To sum up: I don’t usually use vibrating panties.  But when I do, I use the Babeland Remote Vibe Panties.  Stay horny, my friends.  -Dave

The asshat responsible for this is Vinnie Paulino.  He thinks he is funny, but really he's just afraid of people with disabilities.  Go read some of his other tweets @vinniepaulino.  So Stuart decided to have Dave use the Fifth Anniversary of TSBS to teach Vinnie Paulino just exactly what funny is.  This show is a retrospective of some of the best comedy bits of the show over the last five years.  Vinnie Paulino, you're not funny.  The Stuart Bedasso Show is funny.

Sex Toy Review - Sliquid Swirl Strawberry Pomegranate Lube

A few months ago, Dave asked me to try Sliquid Swirl Strawberry Pomegranate Lube.  As regular listeners of The Stuart Bedasso Show know, I generally do not need any lubrication (especially when Dave is around), but I figured I'd give it a try.

I have used SSSP both alone and with Dave, and in my opinion, I like it more when using it by myself during masturbation.  I enjoy the fact that this lubricant has a pleasant scent. ..but not sure that it had any effect on how well the product performed.
 
I applied a few drops to my clitoris and began to massage the lubricant into skin around and inside my vagina.  I liked the product in the fact that I was able to reach orgasm before the product became sticky, but thought that my vaginal secretions can do a better job.  For the woman that is not as fortunate as me, this would be a nice product to use during masturbation.
 
I also tried this product with Dave during sex…or before it.  I applied the lubricant as I had before and began to massage the product, Dave states that the product smelled good, but did not taste anything.  Not sure if the intent of the manufacturer was to have a partner taste the lubricant, but it was not and that was OK for Dave.  I did notice that when Dave was massaging me, the product seemed to get sticky.  This was really the only part I did not enjoy.  I don’t like to be sticky…especially during sex.

So to sum up:  If you're alone, go to town with the Sliquid Swirl Strawberry Pomegranate Lube, girlfriend.  With someone else?  Meh.                   - Eve
