PUERTO RICO: Chair Of 2004 Dubya Campaign Busted Showing Hole On Grindr

Puerto Rico’s Sen. Roberto Arango, who chaired the local 2004 campaign to reelect George W. Bush, has been found showing his anus (NSFW) on the gay hook-up site Grindr. Arango semi-acknowledges that the pics are of him, but says he was merely taking photos to show off his recent weight loss. IN HIS ANUS. Some images in the below clip, while blurred, may be NSFW. Prior to this scandal, Arango was mostly known for the ridicule he endured after publishing a grammatically disastrous letter demanding statehood for Puerto Rico because (among other reasons) so many fast food restaurants have outlets there.

UPDATE: A source tips us about Arango’s anti-gay legislative history.

In 2009 he voted in favor of Resolution 99 which would have amended Puerto Rico’s constitution to ban the recognition of same-sex marriages (it didn’t pass). He has been opposed to civil union bills and in 2004 he used a rubber duck and made it quack to make fun of an opponent (in Puerto Rico, the word for duck, “pato”, means faggot.)

UPDATE II: Spanish-speaking JMG readers tip us that the below clip feels somewhat homophobic in its intent. I’ll replace it if another clip appears.
