Puerto Rican GOP territorial Sen. Roberto Arango voted to ban same-sex marriage, worked on George W. Bush's 2004 re-election campaign, and once called another lawmaker a fag on floor of Puerto Rico's senate. You know what happens next, right?

Arango's excuse for posting pics of himself on gay/bi hookup phone ap Grindr—including one of him bent over, cheeks spread, senatorial asshole winking at the camera—isn't as catchy as "hiking the Appalachian Trail" or "lifting your luggage." Those two were pure poetry. But Arango's excuse is delightful in its own way: Arango wasn't looking to hookup with dudes, he was just documenting his weight loss regimen. ("Why, Senator Arango! Your asshole is looking so slim these days! You simply must share your workout routine with me!")

Have we reached tipping point yet? Shouldn't homophobic politicians and anti-gay bullies be presumed to be gay until they get caught up in a straight sex scandal?

UPDATE: Here's a good roundup of the damage the closeted ex-senator did to other gays and lesbians while he was in office. It seems that every picture ever taken of the senator featured a huge, gaping asshole.

UPDATE 2: We have a winner:

Can we dub posting pictures of your butthole on dating sites a "Puerto Rican Diet Plan"?
