Two men in suits appear on screen. Their faces are blurred.
MAN #1
It’s hard when you’re holding hands with someone at a prayer breakfast and wondering, am I feeling more than the power of Jesus?
Cut to another pair of men, also dressed in suits.
MAN #3
The guys I’d meet randomly would find out I’m a Republican and want to get into it about Bush. I’d tell them, hey, if I wanted to get into bush, I’d be home with my wife.
MAN #2
Yeah, I didn't hire you to be the speaker, I hired you to be the whip!
Cut to the GOP-Harmony spokesman.
SPOKESMAN
At GOP-Harmony, we put you in touch with conservative congressmen, party leaders, and “reporters” looking for someone special for at least 15 minutes. We use 29 distinct items to match you to the perfect liaison.
Some of the categories float by: Denial, Self-Loathing, Committee Memberships, Inseam
Cut back to #3 and #4, holding hands.
MAN #4
It’s not easy to find a man who’s into tax cuts, nation building, and bare-backing. (raises his partner’s hand) But I did!
MAN #3
I'd look like a real hypocrite if I used condoms—I’m chair of the Presidential Commission on Abstinence!
SPOKESMAN
With GOP-Harmony, you don’t have to worry about messy exposés or embarrassing mug shots. We rigorously check out all of our members, weeding out officers, agents, reporters, bloggers….
Cut to another pair of men. One is dressed as Ronald Reagan, the other as Nancy.
REAGAN MAN
Now I never have to ask, “Are you a cop or from The New York Times?”
NANCY MAN
Unless we’re role-playing! (laughs)
SPOKESMAN
And you have our GOP-Harmony Guarantee—none of the men you’ll meet are gay!
Cut back to the first two men.
MAN #2
When people ask me if I’m gay, I ask them, “If I was gay, would I be voting against gay marriage?”
MAN #1
Exactly! I just want to have sex with guys, not a relationship with them.
MAN #2
Thank you, GOP-Harmony!
Cut to the Spokesman.

Hysterical. Evil. I love it!
This is fucking awesome. I'm glad GOP-Harmony recognizes the distinction between being gay, and just wanting to have sex with someone of the same gender.
MAN #2
When people ask me if I’m gay, I ask them, “If I was gay, would I be voting against gay marriage?”
MAN #1

The whole piece was perfect, but that last little bit... too funny.
BURN!
brilliant...i keep thinking of those awful e harmony commercials now
They're not singing opera, they're singing "When the eagle soars" with fellow senators! Repubs will increase funds at their Minneapolis Convention next year if they install pay toilets! Anybody got a quarter?
There is just to much that's ridiculous about this to keep from laughing.
Fantastic! Thank you for the satirical whipping! Funny and now a link on my blog! Now if you'll excuse me I've got to make that call....
Funny. I just happened to make a more serious blog post about this issue.
Glad you guys dug the piece.
