Sen. Mike Bennett Caught Looking at Porn on Senate Floor
Sunshine News ^

Posted on 05/03/2010 4:35:46 PM PDT by AlanD

No one will argue that sitting on the Senate floor during session can get a little boring, but looking at porn is probably not the best way to pass the time.

On Thursday morning, Sunshine State News captured exclusive video of Sen. Mike Bennett, R-Bradenton, looking at pornographic material on his state-issued computer on the Senate floor.

Ironically, as Bennett is viewing the material, you can hear a Senator Dan Gelber's voice in the background debating a controversial abortion bill.

"I'm against this bill," said Gelber, "because it disrespects too many women in the state of Florida."

Bennett defended his actions, telling Sunshine State News it was an email sent to him by a woman "who happens to be a former court administrator."

"I was just sitting there, bored as they were debating the abortion bill," Bennett said.

"I opened it up and said holy [expletive]! What's on my screen? and clicked away from it right away."

Sunshine State News could not verify how long the image of four bikini-clad women with their tops exposed was open before our cameras started rolling on it, but it was up for at least three seconds before it disappeared from the screen.

You’re saying it’s art if it’s well-endowed?

Yes, those porn sites are invasive. I can’t remember what I put in the search engine, but it was relatively innocuous and got a porn site. And then it wouldn’t let me click out of it. Really.

My sister in law was trying to find a girl scout uniform for her daughter. Guess what came up in the search?

I KNOW! I was innocently looking for an animated gif recently, one that made fun of the word ‘whacked’. So I googled ‘whacked’. What a mistake that was. Unfortunately, every time someone says, ‘that’s whack’, that disgusting image will pop in my mind.

Four bikini clad women with their tops exposed is not “porn”.

I can see people engaged in coitus nightly. Hell, just about every episode of The Tudors on SHO has a few scenes of the same. Lot of shenanigans goin’ on back then....who knew?

I’ll never forget the time I looked up “playhouse” to try to find a toy house for my daughters. Bleah.

In the same issue, SSN had an exposé of Cosmo Kramer's failure to wear shower shoes in the pool house!

A bored Republican state senator disrespecting women by viewing topless babes during a debate, while simultaneously misappropriating state resources?

So what else is new?

Exactly what is the problem here? There is not even a molehill to try to make a mountain out of.

I don’t care if every politician in the country watches porn (not that this was really porn) all day long, as long as they stop growing governments and spending money on stupid stuff.

“Nutt to Replace Johnson with Dick Against Cocks.”

I was thinking about that. And like another poster said, if it’d been a democrat this wouldn’t have been news.

Ok, got my tinfoil hat out of the closet and am dusting it off. Could it have been a democrat from across the aisle? You know one of those, watch this to another dem. while he emails Bennett the picture. And then the camera zooms in on Sen. Bennett and vola’ the lamestream media now has another republican to hound out of office.
