Buffy's powers will have to be invoked.


>From Counterpunch:
The senator with the longest and steamiest past is of course Strom Thurmond, a man so legendary in his satyriasis that Lyndon Johnson's daughter Lynda once said that when Thurmond, then almost 60, asked her to go bike riding with him in the Washington suburbs, her father-for the only time in her dating years-said no. This story comes from a biography of Thurmond, Ol' Strom, written by Jack Bass and Marilyn Thompson and published last year. It has plenty of good stuff in it, not least concerning Thurmond's fervid pursuit of women, which once prompted Sen. John Tower to make the famous remark-often attributed to Thurmond himself-that "When he dies, they'll have to beat his pecker down with a baseball bat in order to close the coffin lid".
