No, Really. What Are These People's Problem?
By: Mark W Adams


Another one.

When it comes to Sexcapades, I've seen numerous philanderers and cheaters in scandals involving Democratic politicians, but you have to admit, the sheer depravity of so many of the Republican "Family Values" types is just getting weird.

This latest installment involves the Brown County Wisconsin GOP chair charged with fondling boy, exposing self.

What the hell?

No wonder these guys are leaving the government in droves -- and good riddance too. Mind you, I doubt if the free dinners David Hobson (R-OH-07) accepted (illegally) from defense contractors really played any part in his decision to leave Congress -- mild indeed by today's standards. And he's played it all pretty clean despite the company he keeps. But seeing the GOP having to defend yet another seat in Congress, even one that's only been held once by a Democrat since 1920, will just empty out their pockets all the sooner. (And the Democrats already have their ducks in line for this District.)

He says he wants to "go out on top." More likely he's getting out while the getting is good.
