The joke here is supposed to be that Florida congressman Alcee Hastings is reading out a list of sexual fetishes on the floor of the United States House of Representatives, but the more serious point Hastings makes is that these were all part of an attempted amendment to the hate crimes bill that just passed in the House. Now, sure, "toucherism" is funny and all, but this is exactly the kind of shit that shows how homophobic and juvenile opponents of the legislation actually are. Disgusting.

    I rather like the stridency. You wear it well.

    The "spirit of spuriousness": Hastings wins.
