Ew.

From TPMmuckraker:

A few weeks after departing the House of Representatives, Tom DeLay served as charity auctioneer at a fundraiser for Safari Club International, a gun-lobby group defending man’s right to defend himself against unarmed animals.

“Who wants a beaver?”DeLay asked the crowd, hawking a sheared-beaver vest that a lobbyist later won for $1,400.

“Hoots,” reports Roll Call’s Mary Ann Akers, “and hollers followed.” Probably because the crowd of hunters, hunter-lovers, and those who make their living kissing up to hunter-loving lawmakers understood that “beaver” is a slang term for vagina — although, who knows, maybe they were super-excited about the flat-tailed, dam-building rodents.

“Everybody likes beaver, even women,”DeLay declared happily, with a passion he once reserved for attacking “liberals.””The best thing about it, it’s a shaved beaver!” he exclaimed — blissfully ignorant, it would seem, of the disturbing psychosexual inference that prepubescence is somehow erotic in a female partner.
