- According to people in the audience, Governor Perry became visibly uncomfortable and deflected the questions as best he could. When things started getting too out of hand, president of the school’s College Republicans group, Michelle Knesbach, grabbed the microphone and demanded students quit asking such vulgar and inappropriate questions.
Unfortunately, her efforts were in vain, because immediately after that, a student brought up that, so far, Perry has accepted a total of $102 million in campaign contributions during his various political campaigns. “Would you have anal sex for $102 million?” the student asked.
I applaud the students' tenacity. The vulgarity and language of those questions are the very reason we are even talking about this event. If it weren't for the raucous Q&A session, we might have missed the display of hypocrisy by this presidential hopeful.
As a Texan submitting an application to Dartmouth for graduate school candidacy, I'm lol'ing far too hard. This was probably the best advertisement for a university that I've ever seen.
Considering the sodomy law made explicit sexual acts a matter of legal discussion, and the tide of the social climate that washed that lil legal nugget on shore has long since receded, the questions seem to be comments along the lines of "these are twitter like one-liners that literally what must be going through his head when this topic comes up." Anti-sodomy laws in this day and age are about personal opinions on the existence of gay sex. There's no other way to cut that cake, you just gotta say it out loud. Plus, I'm always down for making that scrub look stupid.
