Poppy likes spanking

Could it be part of tonight's "Desperate Housewives" script, this spanking President George H.W. Bush gave Teri Hatcher after their lunch date last week?



Creepy. If it were anyone else, would he be charged with criminal sexual contact?

At 82, maybe Poppy is losing more of that piece of the brain that controls impulsive behavior. Amusing. But I'm told the elder Bush -- who is a former CIA chief and who FOIA releases in recent years show has consistently lied about where he was when JFK was assassinated Nov. 22, 1963 -- still has a hand in the black ops side at Langley.

If Hatcher's OK with being treated like a tart, fine, but Poppy isn't just your ordinary dirty old man.
