Paul Babeu's Mexican Ex-Lover Says Sheriff's Attorney Threatened Him With Deportation

[danarhea]

Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu — who became the face of Arizona border security nationally after he started stridently opposing illegal immigration — threatened his Mexican ex-lover with deportation when the man refused to promise never to disclose their years-long relationship, the former boyfriend and his lawyer tell New Times.

Yes, a Republican running for Congress, who is outspoken on illegal immigration, and who also wants to tell us how to morally live our lives, was having a homosexual relationship with an illegal alien. When they broke up, he had his lawyer threaten to deport the illegal if he ever said a word about their relationship. This is not one man's word against another either. There is hard evidence, in the form of text messages that prove it.

If I were a Republican living in Arizona, I would certainly vote for the Sherrif's oppenent in the election. If, somehow, this guy wins the primary, then I will be absolutely convinced that there is something in Arizona's drinking water.

Meanwhile, I will once again attack those who put themselves on a pedestal, and tell the rest of us how we should live. People are not defined by what they say, but by what they do.

Doesn't this strike you as funny?

So you believe guilty first and then prove your innocent?.
Being gay is immorral by your standards?
You believe everything in the papers,?

Babeu may be guilty, he may not. the fact that he is gay should have nothing to do with him running for office.
At this point, it is a he said, he said story.
I think I will wait till the investigation is done to make a decision on PB guilt. This could be nothing more than a smear against PB.

I would be concerned for the voters in your State if all of them are like you who jump at the first article without knowing all the facts.

I am very certain that you missunderstood Dan

I strongly doubt he is concerned about the Sheriffs suggested homosexuality, but at the Sheiffs accused behaviour at threating to get his lover deported

One of these days, maybe I'll see you criticize a Democrat as dramatically and damningly as you do so many Republicans... and maybe I won't have a stroke out of sheer shock and disbelief, Mr. Conservative Dan.

With all due respect, it is not Democrats attempting to force me to live according to their so-called code of morality, and attempting to control my wife's uterus, all the while engaging in the exact kind of behavior they are condemning others to the fiery furnace of smoke and brimstone for. If and when they start doing that, I will just as vocal against them for their hypocrisy.

yet again, anyone can make statements. Why not innocent till proven guilty. PB denies the charges, why believe the other person?

Re: Paul Babeu's Mexican Ex-Lover Says Sheriff's Attorney Threatened Him With Deporta

Do Dan:
What if someone came out and said that you beat your wife? I'm I to believe this without hearing your side? Your guilty first, right?

As I stated PB may be guilty. The paper is sort of a rag paper in Arizona. At times they are not very correct. At times they are. I will condeme PB actions if found guilty.
Will you admit you jumped the gun if he is innocent?

He'll just ignore the thread and move on. Dan's a REAL Conservative see, he doesn't worry about right and wrong, it's about the message. He rails against ever wrong, imagined or gossiped claim that "Republicans" are accused of, and then of course claims the moral high ground for his actions. That's a REAL Conservative. At least according to the left around here.

I'm sure that's your motivation. It's not a chance to slam the GOP for the 500th time on these boards. Nope, you're a CHAMPION of Conservative THOUGHT! Question; what does a supposedly gay GOP'er have to do with your wife's uterus?

So if the GOP just came out and said "Morals are bunk, do what feels good!" you'd... what? Never start another thread?

Today’s Press Conference
Posted on February 18, 2012 by Paul Babeu
Yesterday, a tabloid article made a number of false allegations about me. Only one was true: I’m gay. Today, I held a press conference to discuss this. I want to be judged on my service: 20 years in the military, two deployments – including one in Iraq, a police officer who has responded to thousands of calls for help, and a Sheriff who has cut response times while reducing my own budget. I hope you will stand with me as we talk about the issues that matter: securing our border and ending the record debt and deficit spending that… Continue reading

He's admitting he's gay. So where's the story now?

The story isn't about him being gay. It's about him being outspoken against illegal aliens while having a homosexual affair with one, and then threatening him when their relationship broke up. It's the same as the threads I have started about other Republicans. It's not that they are gay. It's that they are hypocrites. Wait, wait. You are right. Republicans are not hypocrites. In fact, Larry Craig isn't gay at all. That's what he says. He just likes to suck on penises while condemning gays. LOL.

Some people can not see the issue is not that he is gay

But the hypocrisy and the POTENTIAL abuse of power, if the sheriff did threaten to have his lover deported.

It is not that hard to see, but some seem to have a pole up their backside

Did you not read my post

it said accused behaviour

now given their are text messages involved it puts the sheriff in a tight spot, but yes he has not yet been found guilty

Then you need to change your lean. You aren't conservative if you think morals are bunk and that everyone should do whatever they want.

You might be fiscally conservative and socially liberal. You might be libertarian. You might be centrist. But you aren't conservative.

No I didn't say morals were bunk. I said that preaching morals while practicing the opposite is bunk. Acutally, what I agreed with was Mr. Vicchio asking if I would stop posting these stories if Republicans stop their behavior. Yet, you somehow manage to turn this into "DanaRhea hates morals". I don't hate morality at all, but I will make a proposition that the cannibal in his society is more moral than many of the churchgoers are in ours.

I'm sure we should investigate until the proof is found.

Dan, Crusader against HYPOCRISY!!! Oh, wait, only REPUBLICAN Hypocrisy, and only if he can play champion, and play at moral high ground... and only if it's a "conservative", and of course, it's best when it's emotional and with little factual information...
WAIT, that sounds a hell of a lot like like, well not anyone that would call themselves Conservative...

Re: Paul Babeu's Mexican Ex-Lover Says Sheriff's Attorney Threatened Him With Deporta

the good sheriff has the backing of John McCain, for what that might be worth....
we also have sheriff joe, the altfuels scandal, several governors ousted, many politicians quitting under duress for their actions..
the job attracts wingnuts all over, but in AZ, the heat just makes them a bit crazier than the rest of the country.

seems if you are a conservative, the other conservatives will forgive and forget, that is the "christian" thing to do, unless you continue to lie about your sins and get caught at it.
Repent you conservatives, oops, I meant sinners.....:doh
