This guy is a gift that keeps on giving, isn't he.

New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin says he is "a vagina-friendly Mayor."

Nagin made the remark while welcoming the author of the Vagina Monlogues, Eve Ensler to the city to promote the "V-Day" celebration in New Orleans next month.

Mayor Nagin began his comments at the news conference by saying, "How am I gonna stand up and say, I'm a 'vagina-friendly' Mayor to these cameras after 'Chocolate City' and some of the other stuff that I've done. But you know what? I'm in."

Unfortunately, though, Nagin is saying that in the context of endorsing a play that endorses sexual molestation of under-age girls as a liberating experience. Far from promoting the event, I'd argue that he should be condemning it. But that's just my opinion.

And let me offer this observation -- I'm no speech writer, but it seems to me that there are two sentences that should never be used together in the same paragraph.

"I'm a 'vagina-friendly' Mayor."

and

"I'm in."

And I say that as someone who is proud to be "vagina-friendly" (the friendlier the better, in my opinion).
