No debate. Just a lovely vision to carry with you. From The Chicago Tribune:
This was what Jack Ryan fought tooth and nail to not to be unsealed from their divorce records.
What am I weeping over? That Jeri Lynn Ryan doesn’t do sex acts on strangers? Or that her ex-husband is a apparently perv?
It is, definitely, an odd sequence of wierdness on hubby’s part.
Apparently, resistance was futile.
I am sorry that Jeri Ryan did not perform kinky sex acts in public, and if she had i would have been even sorrier if no one had had the presence of mind to make a video and/or take some photos. Preferably professional quality ones. But I’m hardly moved to tears. Mildly miffed is closer to the mark.
Sooo, was this an encounter with Species 6969?
The story would be more (heh) titillating if Jeri had played along. Her refusal is kind of a let-down.
Seven of Nine was married to a Tom Clancy character?
Doesn’t do much for her rep one way or the other, but it sure doesn’t make HIM look very good…
So close, and yet so far. 
What a wet blanket. Why, one time, I had this 18" dildo shoved up my…
Uh…
Nevermind.
I was always more of a B’ellana fan anyway.
Suddenly, the plague-like spread of all those Clancy property spinoffs makes a whooole lot more sense…
“We are Rainbow Six. Resistance is Futile.”
I wonder if asking her to wear her Borg costume during the performance was the deal breaker.
I remember reading about this guy in a George Will column – poor George practically had an orgasm over him:
To paraphrase the late comedian Bill Hicks, “Anybody that (perfect) is hiding a deep, dark secret”.
Too bad for him; he was already going to lose that race by a landslide, now he’s just a punchline.
Not that I have any sympathy for him or any of his ilk. This sort of public humiliation is known better by its common name, “karma”.
I dunno…if wanting kinky sex from his hottie wife is the worst thing this guy has ever done then that’s really not so bad. It certainly wouldn’t stop me from voting for the guy.
Karma for what? I’ll admit to not knowing anything about Ryan or his platform, but it seems to me that he’s been a pretty upright citizen. Went to college, made his money, taught in an inner-city school, never committed a crime.
Yes yes, I know, “The Stepford Candidate” and all.
It’s because Ryan had one of his campaign flunkies trail his opponent relentlessly with a video camera, hoping to get some dirt.
And it’s not like the rest of us wouldn’t have volunteered for that particualr hazardous duty.
I resent the hell out of Ryan, first for marrying her, then managing to cause her to leave him (what kinda loser…), then destroying her scary image by repeadtedly calling her the un-scary name of Jeri Lynn, and finally for consuming the first half of “Antiques Roadshow” with a news conference that consisted entirely of the exchange, “Are you sure you didn’t fight the release of your divorce records to prevent you embarassment?” “No, it was to prevent embarassing our poor, handicapped child who deserves to grow up believing his father isn’t some sort or pervert,” repeated for a full half hour.
My wife expressed her disappointment with herself thusly, “They got divorced because she wouldn’t blow him in a Parisian sex club? I figured he had beat her. I have no imagination.”
And some people think the days of the great Hollywood divorce are behind us.
This is clearly a calculated gambit to appeal to the vast block of Trekkie swing voters, who, if they had a chance to bang Jeri Ryan, would want to make sure to do it in as public a place as possible so that all of their friends would know that they were telling the truth about nailing her.
With Republican politicians, and many Dems as well, it’s not so much the sex acts as the fact that they put on a smarmy moral facade of righteousness wrt to any but the most timid expressions of sexuality. Anybody who’s trolling for religious conservative votes with anti-sex blah blah blah, who then gets caught doing the wango-tango in public is a fucking hypocrite.
Seein’ how it’s so funny, does that make him a “karma comedian”?
