Ron Paul tricked into gay seduction scene!

Ron Paul has had the misfortune to be duped by Sacha Baron Cohen's sense of humour. This humour is based upon tricking people into embarrassing situations and playing back the filmed sequence as entertainment to the masses.

Basically Cohen has another alter ego called Bruno who is a gay "reporter" of sorts. Paul was asked how he ended up in a hotel room in such a compromising situation. He said, 'We were in a studio situation, I wasn't invited into a hotel room. There were lots of lights and blaze and commotion and they said we better get in this back room which had been fixed up as a bedroom. So there was some dishonesty getting me into the interview, I was expecting an interview on Austrian economics. That didn't turn out that way. By the time he (Cohen) started pulling his pants down, I was like what on earth is going on here and I ran out of the room. This interview had ended.'

If Cohen thought he could stitch Ron Paul up he was grievously mistaken. As Paul says, 'I don't like the way he lies his way into interviews. That to me is fraud. He has raunchy material people buy into it's sort of sad that it's a reflection of our culture. It's a real shame people are gonna reward him with millions and millions of dollars for being so crass.'

That is very true. If Cohen used willing people then OK. But it is the duplicity that rather negates any humour there might be.
