It started not quite a year ago with former Rev., former head of the National Association of Evangelicals Ted Haggard getting outed for visiting a male escort. Simultaneous with that were the revelations of pederast Mark Foley and his pursuit of Congressional pages. Since then we've had various local officials in Florida, Michigan, and Indiana - all Republicans, mind you - in various sex scandals and crimes. Who could forget Sen. David Vitter, and old Senator Wide Stance himself, Larry Craig?
I do believe that the humor from this entire business evaporated with the recent arrest of a federal prosecutor being arrested in a sting operation. The man was a federal prosecutor in Florida. He flew to Michigan to have sex with a child he believed to be FIVE FUCKING YEARS OLD!!!! (please excuse the profanity). This marvelous poster-boy for the current Republican Party did the entire known universe a favor and killed himself. As the father of two girls, one of whom is only a year older than the bait that lured Mr. Pervert Prosecutor to Michigan, I can only rejoice that this piece of filth did the only honorable thing and died. I do hope that hell is pleasant enough for him. I doubt there are too many five-year-old girls down there.
Teddy Kennedy, Bill Clinton, even going back in time to Wilbur Mills - all pikers. Kennedy managed his various amorous adventures when not in DC. Clinton had the dignity to get blown in the Oval Office bathroom. Mills may have been nailed driving drunk with a naked stripper's head in his lap, but that's about as adventurous as the Democrats have gotten - and that was thirty years ago. I would ask for the name of just one Democratic politician - on any level of government - in the past year (since the Foley/Haggard double-header) and I will gladly peruse the information.
Are liberals really that boring (except for the pedophiles, of course, who are scum)?
