kelpdiver 2 #12 February 10, 2011 sleazy? Not by CL standards, not remotely close. Just a guy trying to have an affair. The only unforgivable act here was the stupidity of sending a clearly identifiable picture of himself trying. Not the kind of smarts we want making policy in DC. (though if we gave an IQ test to the current Members, I bet there would be a good chunk lower than his) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davjohns 1 #15 February 10, 2011 Quotewww.foxnews.com/politics/2011/02/09/rep-lee-declines-comment-report-claiming-sent-shirtless-photo-craigslist/ Work with me here...I understand why you pointed this guy out...but how can you tell which ones AREN'T sleazy? I just assume they are guilty until proven innocent. How many have been proven innocent? But let's be honest - even the Founding Fathers were described as a collection of the well Read, well Bred and well Wed.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gravitymaster 0 #16 February 10, 2011 I can't figure out why he resigned? Isn't the standard in DC that whatever someone does in their personal life their own business and that everyone has affairs and it's OK to lie to cover them up? Heck, this guy didn't even get laid and he goes and resigns. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still doesn't explain why he resigned. He obviously was pursuing this female but never got laid. I don't see the problem unless he's been a strong advocate of family values. All I can figure out is that his wife made him. If that's true then perhaps she should run for his seat. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 2,379 #24 February 10, 2011 >Cite that the Republican Party trumpets Family Values at EVERY OPPORTUNITY, >please. From the "family values" wiki: ========================== Conservative definitions Since 1980, the Republican Party has used the issue of family values to attract socially conservative voters. While family values remains a rather vague concept, social conservatives usually understand the term to include some combination of the following principles (also referenced in the 2004 Republican Party platform): * Promotion of "traditional marriage" and opposition to sex outside of conventional marriage, including pre-marital sex, adultery, polygamy, bestiality, and incest * Support for a roll back of aspects of feminism and support for a traditional role for women in the family. * Opposition to same-sex marriage * Support for traditional education and parental involvement in that education, including such things as vouchers for private, non-secular education. * Opposition to legalization of abortion and support for policies that instead encourage abstinence and adoption * Support for abstinence education exclusively regarding risks associated with early sexual activity such as teen pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases while not teaching such topics of sex education as human sexual behavior, safe sex and birth control * Support for policies that are said to protect children from obscenity and exploitation ========================== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
