Today's Miami Herald brings us up to date on the sad, sad saga of another Republican sex maniac caught in the act. The Republican House Speaker, Marco Rubio, stripped Bob Allen of all power and all committee positions yesterday. Allen, you'll recall, was arrested last month on a charge that he offered to perform oral sex on an undercover police officer and pay him $20. He later claimed he did it because he was afraid of Black people. Republicans, embarrassed, especially because Allen is a notorious and loudmouthed homophobe, are trying to pressure him to resign and disappear before the election so that their party won't be tarred with yet another hypocritical sex deviant.

Instead of resigning, Allen lashed out at Rubio and seems to have attacked Cuban-Americans, a dominant force in the Florida GOP. "In Cuba, that's where you are charged by police, wrapped up and sent off as guilty without a trial. That's a Cuba thing, something Fidel Castro does." Rubio, "of course," is Cuban-American. But Allen said he meant any totalitarian regime, "Cuba is just the closest one."
