Lynne Cheney's LOL Erotic Novel

[K8-EEE]

Did anybody hear Democracy Now today? They said that Lynne Cheney wrote a circa 1980 LOL bad erotic paperback -- featuring lots of free luuuuv and lesbian sex etc set in 19th century America. I'm so curious to snag a copy! I wonder if her sex parts are as lame as O'Reilly's in his "novel." ha!

A Spiritual Journey, September 15, 2003
Reviewer: buckoramaticola from Yale
This is the symbolic tale of a lost man whose beautiful but enigmantic savior herself lives in the encroaching shadow of spiritual perdition. Her story is a powerful metaphor for the battle between the syncretistic/animist urges basic to man's animal nature (as represented by a ragged but tenacious feral dog), and the purifying revelation of an angry and vengeful Christian God. Never before has a political satire used the mysteries of female sexuality to such elaborate ends, and the mixture of slap-stick and black humor that forms the Sapphic sub-plot's unforeseen climax is a potent one the philosophical underpinnings of which unexpectedly fly in the face of traditional Republican values. Sadly the sloppy, "deconstructionist"-inspired style makes much of this nearly impossible to extract, and it is only the roughest outline that emerges through the first several readings.

Reviewer: An Amazon.com Customer
This book was one of the only books I ever put down before finishing. It is a Western about a Texan cowboy (and his pony named Tony) who becomes the leader of a gang of rogues who wish to exploit a small prarie town for all it's worth. They own all of the busnesses so everyone is at their mercy (there are even some grusome rape scenes!). It soon becomes clear that this band of outlaws is actually running the show, and the idiot Texan cowboy is merely being used (actually it's pretty confusing but he wasn't even the rightful leader of the group. He only got the job because of trechery and a brother Jeb.)! Before long all of the neighboring towns are in an uproar, but the gang is quite powerful. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the gang is planning to invade a smaller village because there is some crude oil to be had. I won't tell you the end, but this review should give you some idea of how pathetic the book is. The dialogue is terrible because the Texan can barely speak English. Also, Cheney uses some Joycean tecniques to let us peer into the mind of the Texan cowboy toward the end of the book. It's very anti-climatic, however, because his thoughts are a screwey jumble of nonsensical garbage. If there is one redeeming quality of the book, it is way it portrays the brutal life on the frontier. I am just glad not to live in that day and age. It would be a nightmare.


Daring, But Is It Too Much?, March 6, 2003
Reviewer: A reader from Washington, DC
It is rare that such a public figure as Ms. Cheney should dare to write a book so explicit in its depiction of female sexuality. Clearly, spending large amounts of time in a secure and undisclosed location can lead to forbidden thoughts manifesting themselves on paper, but I am very surprised she chose to send it to a publisher, and I am similarly surprised that its publication was not announced loudly. Evidently, the feminist liberal media is not ready to admit that even well-known conservatives like Lynne Cheney are capable of sensitive portrayals of love between females. Truly a shame.


Leaves you panting for more!, February 20, 2003
Reviewer: A reader from San Francisco, CA
This story of a Washington wife who leaves her powerful husband to join a womyn's commune is charged with the kind of eroticism you just don't expect from the Second Lady of the United States of America. I was amazed at how graphically Ms. Cheney details the commune's daily "massage classes" and their predictable free-for-all aftermaths, while at the same time delivering a devastating critique of phallocentric discourse in modern culture. I can't wait for the sequel, in which the Sisters declare war against the male-dominated multinational corporation that is threatening to foreclose on their commune.




HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

6. O'Really has one out, too.

excerpt:
Dec. 12, 2003 | We don't mean writing about bad sex -- although there is probably a lot of that out there. What we mean is wonderfully, marvelously, deliciously terrible writing about sex in published work that is actually trying to be good.

Readers searching for inspiration need look no further than this passage by Fox News luminary Bill O'Reilly (unearthed by the tireless Al Franken in his recent book "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them.") In addition to being a right-wing gasbag, it turns out that O'Reilly wields a piston-like fictional pen. In his 1998 suspense thriller, "Those Who Trespass," he pumped out the following:

"Ashley was now wearing only brief white panties. She had signaled her desire by removing her shirt and skirt, and by leaning back on the couch. She closed her eyes, concentrating on nothing but Shannon's tongue and lips. He gently teased her by licking the areas around her most sensitive erogenous zone. Then he slipped her panties down her legs and, within seconds, his tongue was inside her, moving rapidly."

7. Stunned O'Really even heard of foreplay

It's probably something in his stories that signals evil communists, etc. Certainly not something a REAL American would ever do.

8. EEEEEWWWWWW!!!!

Normally, this might actually make me a little.......but coming from a repuke, it's just icky! :puke:

[K8-EEE]

9. Does He Get Splotchy All Over?

UUUUGH!

I'll bet he was sooooo pissed that Franken dug THAT up....brief white panties...God he's a geek!

[Deja Q]

10. YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

O'Reilly is the ultimate pervo! And a cowardly one by not saying the real words! (not being very much interested in a woman's most sensitive erogenous zone because I am am not a heterosexual male, I wouldn't know what it's called... But that's my excuse. What's Bill's excuse, or is he coyly saying he's a homosexual male too? :evilgrin: )

11. they should re-issue it, with Saddam's romance novel ...

Remember those paperback editions that combined 2 books -- the sort with 2 "front" covers (one of them was upside-down).
