On Thursday, former Va. Gov. Bob McDonnell was was found guilty on 11 corruption and fraud counts. He will be sentenced in January.
Former New York Times columnist Frank Rich, currently Executive Producer of the HBO television series, “VEEP,” marked the verdict by faux-praying that McDonnell isn’t anally raped in prison:
We must pray for the former governor that his brilliant policy innovation, the transvaginal wand, did not catch on in prison. #McDonnell

Because prison rape humor is funny — at long as it’s directed at a Republican.
