What hell hath Bob Dole wrought?

The ex-presidential hopeful’s drug of choice, erection pill Viagra, hasfallen into the wrong, um, hands. And those hands belong to Armageddon starBen Affleck. The heartthrob’s recent use of the drug resulted in some veryserious side effects, he reveals in an interview in the December issue ofPlayboy.

“I almost had a heart attack. I had to sit down, and all it did was make mesweat and feel dizzy. And really unnerved,” he tells the magazine. “I feltno sexual side effects whatsoever.”

He calls it “one of [his] biggest disappointments.”

What the heck made him decide to partake in the little blue impotence pill?Plain ol’ peer pressure. “I figured it’s this old-guy drug. If you can’t geta hard-on, you take Viagra,” the 27-year-old actor says. “But then theseguys start telling me, ‘No, no, no, you can take it too, and it’s like youwere 14 and jerking off six times a day.’ ”

Pfizer, the company behind the gazillion-selling drug, does not condone theuse of Viagra just for kicks, by the way, deeming recreational use as”inappropriate.”

“Viagra should be considered for use only after a clinical evaluation thatinvolves physical exam and medical history to confirm a diagnosis oferectile dysfunction and to assess the appropriateness of Viagra therapy,”the company says in a statement.

Affleck, however, might argue the drug is a job requirement. Apparently,star-status is pretty good for his love life. “Kevin Bacon once said,’Anybody can get laid when they’re famous. The champion thing is to get laidwhen you’re not famous. That’s what’s really hard.’ Boy does that turn outto be true,” Matt Damon’s best buddy reveals. “You can be seriouslydisfigured or whatever and women will still be attracted to you.”

In spite of his apparently busy bedroom antics, Affleck has also beenactively developing his film career. His much-hyped religious comedy, Dogma,is due in theaters soon. Four more Ben-laden flicks–Reindeer Games, TheThird Wheel, Boiler Room and Bounce–will debut next year.
