David Jaye's Wacky, Racisty 1990s Cable Access Show Finds New Life On YouTube

February 15, 2013, 8:22 AM

The 1990s were a glorious time. It was an era when a man could rock a gay porn moustache without being mocked. He could even have a drinking problem, drop his gun in a state capitol, and star in racist cable access programming all while serving as an elected official.

Of course, we are speaking of David Jaye. He was Washington Township's sexiest elected official ever. Before getting kicked out of the state Senate in 2001 for (allegedly) domestic violence, drunk driving, and storing porn on his state-issued computer, Jaye wasn't just a humble lawmaker. He was a cable access star.

What camera wouldn't love Jaye's creepy smile, his bad combover that leaves you wondering if he's wearing a hair piece, and his fun demand that Detroit Mayor Dennis Archer submit to a drug test? You know, because Archer was (maybe still is!) one of those blacks! In Detroit! Then there was the time Jaye "joked" about Native American casino operators trying to scalp him. Classic.

You can relive so many of these great memories in this newly-posted YouTube compilation of David Jaye's greatest cable access moments. Good times all around.
