Congressman Chris Lee Resigns After Shirtless Photo Posted on Internet

Your devotion to the dem party is touching

How long did it take cold cash Jefferson to resign

what about tax cheat Rangle

perjurer Clinton

When you are the party of no values, your guys can get away with anything.

I do wish our conservative guys would start behaving like adults. I sure feel sorry for his wife and family.
 
I swear we need a sticky thread: The Partisian Sex Scandal Tally. We can list all the political pervs by partisian persuasion, add to it every time a new polical perv scandal erupts, then all the partisian hackers on the forum could keep count and yell, "Yay!" and "Boo!" as desired. At least it would keep dozens of these threads from popping up on what seems like a daily basis.

What say ye?? :mrgreen:

Sounds good to me
 
Another republican fails at the "family values" and "sanctity of marriage". Add him to the very long list of intrusive hypocrites like Limbaugh, McCain, Foley, Haggard, Craig, and many many more. While these phonies want to control our personal affairs, they fail at controlling their own.

As long as they have testicles this is going to continue. The same goes for Dems.

Maybe this is reason we should have women running the country. A little cat scratch fever and you have guys like this moron using his real name online. Look at the Carolina govenor who flew all the way to Argentina for cat scratch fever. Not to be totally partisan as we had Clinton toying with an aide down the hall in the White House.

Have always felt a woman shouldn't be president because of possible irrationale thinking during menses. I would like to apologize to all women as I was wrong.
A little cat scratch fever and there is no telling what a man might do........

Thank you. A much more honest and therefore stronger argument than trying to stretch to find equivalence.

Yep I disagree with Obama on many topics; be it civil liberties, foreign policy, or trade policies. But at least he's only just a bit better than neo-cons when it comes to liberty:
"The president does oppose same-sex marriage, but he supports equality for gay and lesbian couples, and benefits and other issues, and that has been effectuated in federal agencies under his control," White House adviser David Axelrod said today on MSNBC."

That's Obama pandering to your intrusive, oppressive ilk. It's the sick game of politics. You're liberty-hating, dogmatic, republican voters have to be coddled.
 
First thoughts... This guy resigns for being an idiot to his family... whereas Clinton lied under oath, Rangel the Tax Man cheated on taxes for ages, Geithner cheated on taxes and is appointed Treasury Secretary, Waters and Conyers have done dirty deeds... and all these dolts are still serving.

Of course, one foray into idiocy and people lobbed the 3 cent question about family values. Who knows, perhaps his marriage was on the rocks... if not... it might be now. What was that endless drumbeat we heard during Clinton's lying under oath about sexual harassment? It's his private life? Two consenting adults? (one being a government employee of dubious age) LOL... you Libs are funny and terribly inconsistent. Who's the guy that ran the whore house from his apt? Still in office? Check.

Oh so apparently family values aren't as important as we've been led to believe and hetero marriage isn't actually sacred. I see...
 
I saw the story on TV and, at first, it looked like he was holding something in his hand. (not the cell phone hand, the other one)

How could he expect not to get caught with a picture of himself flexing like that?
 
Ugh, why must we always bring up partisan crap with news stories like this one? He's a politician. Politicians, regardless of political affiliation, seem to get wrapped up in crap like this all the time. It's silly that both sides always seem to get in a pointless pissing contest whenever stuff like this comes up.
 
He resigned in less than 3 hrs. That's a record even for Republicans. Too bad Dems don't do the same when they screw up. We have to just keep putting up with their sorry asses.

I wondered who would turn this into a bad liberal thing.

For the record, I have no clue why he resigned. This is really no one's business but him and his family. I don't mind republicans resigning, but I don't think it was needed unless there is some law broken I don't know about.

He was probably doing so to cut the media off at the pass before they plastered his name all over the place and made a big spectacle about it. Scandal sells.

It's because there is only one side that feels they have "the moral majority", touts "the santicty of marriage", and aggressivlely enacts laws against what consenting adults do in the privacy of their own homes. And that side is full of hypocrites.

All politicians are held at a higher standard, regardless of whether or not they tout morality garbage or not. They are all hypocrites, regardless of political affiliation. Regardless, I could see your point if every single person on the side that you are referring to were that way. They aren't. Some of them are and get busted. Who cares?

Every one has been a hypocrite as some point. It's best not to throw those type words around. What he did was not a crime, was not any of our business and had no effect on his ability to do his job.

I honestly don't care what consenting adults do and this man should not resign for this. But he does it because he know's he is a hypocrite being a part of a party that forbids such actions that I pointed out. If a group want's to legislate our bedside habits, their own is up for judgement.

He didn't do anything illegal, so why did he resign?
 
Why did he resign if he didn't do anything illegal? I mean come on it not like this is the only man that has ruined his career over casing a peace of tail >.<.
