Delegate Bob Marshall has prefiled his bills for the 2007 session, and they are HILARIOUS, as usual.
Turkey Baster Bob is going to fight Virginia’s biggest problem: adultery, with HB 1661. Virginia’s adultery law hasn’t been updated in 46 years, so Turkey Baster Bob has decided to add “cunnilingus, fellatio, anilingus, and anal intercourse” to to the law, regardless of gender.
Well, at least SOMEONE cares.
Here’s the rub, however. Marshall’s bill would make adulterous blowjobs a Class 4 misdemeanor, but if you’re not married, its still a Class 6 felony.
So, to recap:
OLD
Adulterous intercourse: Class 4 misdemeanor
Adulterous oral or anal: Class 6 felony
Oral or anal for anyone unmarried: Class 6 felony
NEW (with HB 1661)
Adulterous intercourse: Class 4 misdemeanor
Adulterous oral or anal: Class 4 misdemeanor (adultery statute) + Class 6 felony (carnal knowledge statute)
Oral or anal for anyone unmarried: Class 6 felony
Essentially, what he accomplishes here is making an adulterous blowjob a felony, but making adulterous intercourse a misdemeanor–because in Bob Marshall’s world, if you’re going to commit adultery, you better procreate.

Kenton, that’s fantastic stuff.
Guess we’re all going to jail, any idea on his stance towards Ted Haggard’s freedom?
does anyone ever get on the floor and point at him and just say “stupid, stupid, stupid” over and over again?
Ha, great post. Should start taking bets now on what national media outlet will pickup on this bill first - or will the late night comics simply have a field day with it.
What the hell is he thinking? Have we solved all of the world’s other problems overnight?
Bruce should have some more fun stuff to add to his folder this year.
I feel like someone should tie him down and tape an issue of Hustler to his face.
Kenton gets the “Savage Language” award for introducing the word “santorum” into a Gen Assemb blog post!
Good thing that law hasn’t been enforced in 30 years. He really is barking up an empty tree. Or a tree stump. Or something.
