Once again the party of 'family values' proves they are no better than anyone else.

Congressman Chris Lee Resigns After Shirtless Photo Posted on Internet - ABC News

Rep. Chris Lee, R-N.Y., resigned from Congress
after a report emerged that he had sent flirtatious e-
mails, including one with a bare-chested photo of
himself, to a woman he met on Craigslist.

Lee is married and has a child.

"It has been a tremendous honor to serve the people
of Western New York. I regret the harm that my
actions have caused my family, my staff and my
constituents. I deeply and sincerely apologize to them
all. I have made profound mistakes and I promise to
work as hard as I can to seek their forgiveness," Lee
said in a statement Wednesday night.
 
LOL!

even the prof doesn't know chris lee

meanwhile, educated children know charlie rangel, third longest server, longtime ways and means, most powerful chair outside the white house...

and note where's mr lee today?

we're all just tryin to get along, y'know

try not to be so judgemental

Meh, I say the wrath he is going to endure from his Wife is more than what his constituents are gonna give him.

I agree with you...however, sending pictures (shirtless, no less) to a woman from Craig's list certainly makes one question his judgment and his worthiness of representing a district of his peers...

And, yes, you could say that about any affair...but this one kinda crosses into a special territory of foolishness.
 
Once again proving the oxymoron that the party of "family values" is....LOL....do these guys ever quit?
 
Honestly I wish he wouldn't resign. It is funny as hell.

What a doofus. Public figure trying to hustle some tail sending photos of himself to strangers USING HIS REAL NAME.

Nothing partisan. Certified idiots are plentiful on both sides of the aisle....

Moral of the story:

If you still wanna get action, dont get married
 
I wish my elected officials would stop making me look like a douche simply for being represented by them.

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)

Chris Lee- he was great in HORROR OF DRACULA.
 
Wait! A GOP politician who was secretly looking for women? Are we sure he isn't secretly a Democrat?

I know eh? No page boys this time, no airport stalls.

I am so disapointed he's straight.

One sexy picture though, I swear that hunk of man flesh could turn me gay :2razz:
 
Must be some kind of record for fastest resignation after public revelation. Just a matter of a few hours. ZAP!
 
yup

he's history

where's charlie?

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.
 
IOW, "all Conservatives are bad because of this one asshole". Am I right?

One bad apple is not a bad harvest, but there are far too many worms in the Republican orchard. (See Boehner Sex Probe... we aren't even done talking about that one and we have another). The PR firms working for the Republican must feel like they are in an endless game of Whack-A-Mole.

Ah, once again we need to find equivalence and must go back 20 years to come up with something. Weak!

I'm done talking about the Boehner sex probe until someone comes up with something better than a blogger suspects something and Boehner ignored the pesky twerp when he asked him about it. From the video, I couldn't even tell if Boehner heard him.
There're enough politicians who cheat. We don't need to go around making stuff up.
 
Your devotion to the dem party is touching

How long did it take cold cash Jefferson to resign

what about tax cheat Rangle
