Cover Your Ears -- Congress Gets Nasty!

Ever heard of apotemnophilia, coprophilia, frotteurism, klismaphilia or gerontosexuality? Thanks to Rep. Alcee Hastings, who had the embarrassing task of listing off the dirty deeds, we have.



Rep. Hastings was mocking the language used in a proposed amendment to the hate crimes bill. It's unclear exactly what the author of the amendment was actually trying to accomplish -- but it certainly frazzled Hastings.

P.S. -- Wanna know what the terms mean? You'll have to Google 'em. We can't tell you.
