Smitty and I Featured in . . . GQ?

Posted on | February 24, 2010 | 12 Comments

Thanks to Da Tech Guy for loaning me the fedora, so that Smitty and I were a matched pair in Bloggers Lounge, earning inclusion in the Gentleman’s Quarterly CPAC special online fashion extravaganza.

Hey, GQ, if you ever need a right-wing stud to rock a Speedo . . .

OK, that was 20 years ago, and I’m well past my Speedo prime, but I do have twin 17-year-old sons and certain traits are hereditary. IYKWIMAITYD.

Tip o’ th’ fedora to Jesse Hathaway of Athens Runaway, who’s in the background of the photo. Here’s video of Jesse’s address at CPAC.

Jesse’s a friend of a friend, and the promising young protege of an illustrious mentor.

    Did you read some of the comments on the GQ “article”? Many came to your defense. There is hope after all.

    The Speedo photo should be submitted to GQ, so that the writer can see what a real man (ie- conservative) has to offer the distaff population!!

    I was going to say, you and Smitty shirtless in GQ…

    My guess is Scott Browns you are not.
