PHOTOS: GOProud’s Christopher Barron Has Been Working On His Fitness

GRATUITOUS SKIN — Before Christopher Barron joined executive director Jimmy LaSalvia to become the chairman of GOProud, he was the political director of Log Cabin Republicans. He ditched that place in 2009. But little did we know that in between writing smartypants op-eds, Barron would have much free time to work on his abs. And photograph them. And turn himself into a veritable Guys With iPhones fanatic. If you see him hanging out on Grindr, let us know! For now, here’s what it looks to be a politically conservative homosexual, who happens to have been getting ready for a Florida holiday by the pool.

      Gay Republicans are either racists or gun fanatics. That is why they are Republicans. That and they are war mongers and don’t care about the poor.

      I can say three things based on these pictures.

      1. He is proud of his abs and rightfully so.

      2. He likes men who hunt, drive pick-ups, and possibly chew.

      3. He doesn’t shave his armpits, thankfully, and probably does not shave his pubes.

      If he wasn’t a Republican and I was single, I might propose.

      “I’m sure his cruising site profile reads something like:

      That must mean the majority of white gays on cruising sites are republican.

      My only issue with his appearence.
      1. Usually guys that age that diet down that low to get abs like that can really make their faces look haggard. I figure I would see their face 99% of the time and their abs like 10% of the time, I’ll take a nicer looking face and a smooth stomach over a haggard drawn face and hot abs

      and

      2. Older guys that thin have often times starved away their ass into something flat as a pancake. And thats BAD! lol

      OMG … you people have completely missed the obvious …

      LOOK AT THE (NEVER SMILING) GUY’S BEDROOM! from the creepy bedding and curtains to the “fine art” landscape hanging over his bed (in Baroque frame, no less), the guy is scary!

      and don’t even get me going on the little hand towels hung on on the towel racks in his bathroom ….

      I suspect he may have a basement from whence you might hear the scream, “it puts the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again …”

      I think this guy looks good. I say this as a pretty staunch Democrat, but the Republican party is changing a lot socially. In the not to distant future, I imagine they’ll be a lot more inclusive of gays. That said, it will be up to us to remember when considering legislation to help the less fortunate, that we were once less fortunate.
