Now that we know that all congressmen and senators spend all of their spare time in showers and saunas engaging in cockfights (and not the chicken kind), congressional aides are putting in tons of overtime in CYA&penis mode making sure their bosses don’t get linked to a creepy legislative mansex Fight Club.

Senator John Thune, who is the not-Mormon Mitt Romney, was accosted by some gotcha-question-asking reporter who is utterly fascinated by male genitalia (so we’re guessing it was Howard Kurtz) and it went down like this:

Asked whether he has had shower encounters like the one Massa alleged, Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.) was interrupted by an aide — “Senator, we definitely have a speaking engagement” — and whisked away before he could respond.

So I’m gonna put Thune down for three glory hole encounters, a half dozen reach-arounds, and as Chip Pickering’s tag team partner at the C Street Gladiators & Taco Tuesday Night get together.
