This is a joke, right?
What Weiner did was not even illegal. Meanwhile, sex offenses by Republicans far outnumber those by Democrats, and believe me, I have no love for Democrats. See Republican Sex Offenders.
Wednesday, June 15, 2011
# Tom Ganley, former Republican Congressional candidate, and current "Family Values" hypocrite, is facing three felony charges of gross sexual imposition, and single counts of kidnapping, abduction, solicitation, and menacing by stalking, according to Ryan Miday, a spokesman for County Prosecutor Bill Mason. No arraignment date has been set. Mr. Ganley allegedly groped a woman in his car dealership and attempted to insert his fingers in her vagina after sticking his hands down her pants. See the original complain here.
# Alan David Berlin, 40, a longtime staffer for a Republican state lawmaker, was charged on May 29, 2009 with a first degree felony for unlawful contact with a minor. He is also charged with criminal attempted sexual exploitation of children, criminal solicitation to commit sexual abuse of children, all second-degree felonies, and other offenses. authorities say Berlin suggested dressing up in animal costumes during online sex chats with a 15-year-old boy. During a search, agents found wolf- and cat-type costumes in his home.
# Republican sex offender & former Regent University law school assistant dean Stephen L. McPherson, who was indicted June 7, 2008 on 13 felony sexual assault charges involving two girls, has entered a guilty plea to two counts of forcible sodomy and two counts of object sexual penetration. He is set to be sentenced May 22. There was no agreement on a potential sentence, except that prosecutors will recommend a cap of 18 years and six months.
# Republican sex offender and former North Country assemblyman and current state Parole Board member, George "Chris" Ortloff, 61, was arrested on Monday, Oct. 13, 2008 on federal charges that he used the Internet to solicit sex with minors. He was arrested following a sting operation at a Colonie motel and had allegedly arranged for a date with a minor he met on the Internet. '' The New York Post reports that he had child pornography and sex paraphernalia in his possession when he was arrested. State Police reportedly searched Ortloff'''s home in Plattsburgh and a computer had been seized from his Lake Placid real estate office, officials said. Ortloff, married with two sons, retired from the Assembly in 2006 having represented the 110 th District. '' He was appointed to the part-time position on the Parole Board, a six year term which expires in 2012, a position paying him $102,000 a year.
# Republican sex offender & Missouri State Rep. Scott Muschany, (R)-Frontenac, was indicted today, Aug 6, 2008, in connection with a reported sexual assault of a 14-year-old girl on May 17, the day after this year�s Legislative session ended. The alleged victim is the daughter of a state employee. The girl�s mother and Muschany, a married father of 2 children, were romantically involved, the woman said. (Aren't "Family Values" a wonderful thing?) In a morbid twist of irony, Muschany was a co-sponsor of legislation that toughened sex offender laws in 2006. According to his legislative biography, Muschany and his wife were licensed as foster parents with the Division of Family Services.
That just barely scratches the surface. And I defy you to come up with a list of Democratic pols a tenth as long as that on the website. |

I take exception to this claim. I'm sure Democrats get just as horny and act just as inappropriately as Republicans in pretty much equal numbers.
Where Republicans score big points is in 1) sexual hypocrisy, 2) kinkiness, and 3) colorfulness. Democrats are left choking on the dust of Republicans in those areas, which figures. When you play the holier than thou gambit, without actually being holier than thou, and without actually even trying to be holier than thou, things inside tend to get twisted around. For my money, the best sex scandal of the last 30 years was the Colorado preacher and his male prostitute/drug dealer. (Tastes may vary.) |

It is not a partisan website. The guy who ran it offered a cash prize to anyone who could come up with a comparable list of Democrats. It was not claimed.
Where Democrats excel is at tax evasion. |

Strange because you think it would be the other way around....
On the other hand I guess since Republicans are good with money, they know how to hide their sleaze. Democrats are stereotypically bad with it so they get caught. Sex on the other hand, we know Democrats love to party and know how to keep it on the DL a lot better. Republicans on the other hand are like kids in a candy store. I mean the words "good sex" and "Republican" just don't go together. |

Rep. Anthony Weiner stepping down
Rep. Anthony Weiner plans to announce at a 2 p.m. press conference in Brooklyn, N.Y. Thursday that he has made the decision to resign from Congress amid a growing scandal over his lewd online communications.
News broke this morning that the New York Democrat had informed friends that he would be stepping down from Congress, the New York Times first reported.
NBC reported just before the news broke that Weiner's staff appeared to be packing up the congressman's office this morning. NBC's Alex Moe reports that two staff members and two interns left the office with their belongings, turned off the lights and locked the door.
Weiner's move was widely expected in the face of increasing pressure from colleagues as well as the public amid growing scandal over the New York Democrat's lewd online communications with multiple women.

It's too bad the guy shot himself in the foot. He is an articulate liberal voice and I hope he gets a spot on MSNBC or somewhere soon. Maybe Current and Keith O. will pick him up. (Olbermann's new show starts Monday. Hurray!) |

| He'll be around. He'll probably be able to run for office again within the decade. |

| From all reports, he wasn't an effective legislator--he was too busy showboating, so it isn't important that he serve in office. However, liberals need loud attention-getting and articulate voices to capture some attention from the conservative media. On the same theme, whatever happened to Alan Grayson? He was pleasingly audacious. |

Congressman Weiner was a dick to his staff
| Quote: |
His scheduler, John J. Graff, who was in the next room, suddenly heard the congressman yelling at him through the wall.
Then, Mr. Graff recalled, Mr. Weiner started pounding his fists on his desk, kicked a chair and unleashed a string of expletives.
Two weeks later, Mr. Graff, a Navy veteran, became the latest of a sizable number of staff members who have resigned after an abbreviated stint with Mr. Weiner
. . .
It is rarely easy working for any member of Congress, with the low pay, long hours and endless politics. But Mr. Weiner, who is running for New York City mayor next year, is without question one of the most intense and demanding, according to interviews with more than two dozen former employees, Congressional colleagues and lobbyists.
. . .
And, in a city saturated with transient career hoppers, Mr. Weiner has presided over more turnover than any other member of the New York House delegation in the last six years, according to an analysis of Congressional data. Roughly half of Mr. Weiner�s current staff has been on board for less than a year. Since early 2007, he has had three chiefs of staff. |
Weiner. A dick. To his staff. |
