HiddenMysteries: Julie-Annie Republican Uses Oral Sex Reference in Campaign Slogan

Howie Klein: It doesn't rhyme in English but the translation is: "If you like oral sex, vote Caragol for council.

OK, everybody knows about Giuliani's sponsorship of and partnership with crime figure Bernie Kerik, about the cocaine bust-- and hasty resignation-- of his former South Carolina campaign chair Tom Ravenel, about his California co-chairs, the soon-to-be-indicted Jerry Lewis and hypocritical closet queen David Dreier, and about Giuliani's in house child predator priest, Alan Placa. But Giuliani can't seem to ever appoint anyone to anything who doesn't turn out to be a dud-- or worse. His latest embarrassment is a member of his Miami-Dade County Leadership Team, Hialeah City Council member Jose "Pepe" Caragol (R-FL). Caragol, a reactionary Cuban-born GOP hack, is a typical Giuliani supporter, i.e.- a pig.

Caragol is up for re-election and some voters are offended by his campaign slogan:

Si te gusta el sexo oral, vote por Caragol por consejal

It doesn't rhyme in English but the translation is: "If you like oral sex, vote Caragol for council.'' The front-runner for the presidential nomination of the putative "Family Values" party hasn't asked Caragol to step down yet. He's probably been too busy trying to figure out how to spin that "Family Values" claim with his defense of the Bush veto of the States Children's Health Insurance Program.
