Congressman Chris Lee Resigns After Shirtless Photo Posted on Internet

Why did he resign? Don't care, he did what he should do, he manned up and did the right thing, he didn't make excuses, he saved his party from taking steps to get rid of him. That alone makes him more of a man, then far to many in public office.

I agree, but he loses a few points because of the cheesy flexing that he did in the photo.
 
Yeah he's really someone to look up to. What a hero! I'll bet his wife thinks so too! :roll:

I think that it is admirable that he stepped down immediately and didn't go through the nonsense of denying the allegations and blah blah blah. He should at least be commended for that. As for how his wife feels about him... that's really nobody's business but hers.
 
No, I meant one reason I favor Conservatives over Liberals is because of family values. They are held to a higher standard than liberals as well they should be.

Thats why so many conservatives always support government street thugs enforcing morality laws right? I just love how people you get on your pissant high horse about morality being a personal thing but when it come to actually letting people decide if a certain act between two people or just the individual involved for themselves is easier to high behind the government and its guns like a coward. Its no better than than the left justification for tax payer theft, granted the right supports tax payer theft just in other areas.
 
Conservatives thin their herd of these DNA mistakes.

Meanwhile at the liberal ranch......Rangel, Clinton, Frank, etc, become rock stars.
 
He should step down not because of the sending of the photos, but rather the TAKING of those awful photos.
 
The very first sentence in this thread was..



Do you just sit there and take it when someone bashes your side?
I find it very sad when my party of "family values" sins. However, we are all sinners and at least my side tries to do the right thing.
Dems don't even try, so any perverted or corrupt thing they do is just another day in the life of a Dem.

Maybe you missed it Barb, but I commented on that too. In fact, in this very thread, I commented negatively on people who used this to attack both sides. Holy consistency!
 
Yeah, he only broke the law. Big difference between breaking the law and ****ing around on one's wife. The latter is worse, according to you, even though it's not illegal.

Sorry dude I consider guys that cheat on their wifes as low as it gets.
 
tell it to monica lewinsky and all the other broaddricks

tell it to chris matthews

Boo Hoo. That wasn't a bash Barb. All I said was that despite the fact that Republicans call themselves the party of "family values" they are no better than anyone else.
 
none of us is really any better than anyone else

we're all flawed

striving to be the best you can be, that's the point

some people and parties hold themselves to higher standards

which side are you on?

where's charlie?

few care about what topics you agree with or disagree with obama on, the world is not your mom
Then perhaps YOU should not have pointed out a topic that I disagree with him on. If YOU do not want me to respond to that point that YOU made, perhaps YOU should not have brought it up.

what's doma have to do with foreign policy?
Feel free to point out where I said it did.
you mean the possessive "your"

"you're" is contraction for "you are"

My bad, I made a punctuation error on the internet. I'd apologize but I'm very likely to make similar mistakes in the future. And I don't really care if I do.

LOL!

let me point it out again---

obama opposes gay marriage and obama's doj compared in circuit homosexual relations with incest and sex with pubescents

Paul Hogarth: Obama's DOMA Defense Unacceptable

he's such a hypocrite, obama

and so judgemental

why is he always trying to impose on the private lives of american citizens?

Yep, like I said before I disagree with him on many issues. You're point is?

Meanwhile the "moral majority" continues to act immoral according to their standards.
 
You've got to love when people like the OP single one person out from their opposing party and apply it to a broad general group or people who have numerous differences. I forgot the liberal party and their representatives of the party have never had anything wrong before.
 
Once again the party of 'family values' proves they are no better than anyone else.

It's hard to get it more wrong than you did.

If I use your your standard I can say that all Democrats are Racists because they started the KKK, or they are all unethical because because one was caught.

You Liberals make yourselves look bad when you use a paint roller when you should be using very fine paint brush.
 
obtusive?

LOL!

obama's doj compared gay marriage to incest and sex with teens

it is what it is

what a hater he must be

obama, that is

Oh so your offtopic point is important here according to you. Nevermind that you told me not to respond to the topic you brought up. But since you keep bringing it up post after post I guess I'll have to keep responding to it: Democrats suck at civil liberties and Republicans suck even more at it since they tout limited government, yet they tout social conservatism (legislating what consenting adults do) and limited government. At least democrats stand by their stated principles of obtrusive government; meanwhile republicans abandon their stated principles of limited government.
 
it wasn't republicans who argued in circuit that gay marriage is analagous to incest and sex with pubescents

no, that'd be the professsionals at obama's doj

buncha haters, it appears
