Slog - Comments on Another Young Republican Rapist http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/08/another_young_republican_rapist_1 It's been a good week for the Young Republicans. First the newly elected head of the Young Republican National Federation resigned after allegations surfaced that he sexually assaulted another young Republican. And now the former head of the Michigan Federation of Young Republicans--a man that gave a speech at the Republican National Convention in 1992 and is still active in the organization--has pleaded guilty to rape. Oh, and was he gracious about it... Michael Flory, a 32-year-old attorney from Jackson, Mich., pleaded guilty to sexual battery on the day he was to stand trial for rape. The teary-eyed college student...

I mean, from the record they're building up, we could probably put together a huge documentary about GOP debauchery and crime.

Like that guy in SC selling coke who was a leader of the campiagn for Rudy? Or was it McCain?

This is from fox news on a Fla. legislator/McCain campaign official:

"TITUSVILLE, Fla. — A Republican state lawmaker charged with offering to perform oral sex for $20 on an undercover male police officer vowed Thursday to defend himself in court and said he would not resign from office.

"'I am filing a not guilty plea. I am vigorously going to fight this,' state Rep. Bob Allen, a co-chair of Republican presidential candidate John McCain's campaign in Florida, said at a news conference. 'I am not resigning my office because the people elected me and want me to do a good job. I am going to do a good job for them in finishing this term.'

"Allen called his arrest 'an ugly and unpleasant situation that has been thrust on me and my family.' The lawmaker had sponsored a failed bill that would have tightened the state's prohibition on public sex.

"He choked up when he thanked backers who had contacted him to offer their support. He warned people not to jump to conclusions about what happened but said he could not offer any details about the arrest because of his legal strategy. Allen is married and has a teenage daughter."
[The story continues].

Since the arrest he has blamed this incident on the fact he saw several African Americans in the area....

Unfortunately, it makes perfect sense - this is what most Americans are like. People vote for those who are like them. It's the same reason that Bush II hasn't and won't be impeached; most Americans are just like him.

All these defectives clearly join the Republican party in a sad and doomed effort to squelch their violent sexual tendencies. The bigger the freak, the more they go on the warpath. Given that: what must be going on inside the head of Fred Phelps? What bacterial disease has eaten the synapses in his head, and what must they be now telling him to do?

Au contraire. If you're implying that posting to a blog about current events is equivalent to promoting those events, the media is guilty of promoting every brutal, nasty and inhumane act under the sun. Learn to differentiate between reporting and supporting.

The delivery format somehow changes the content? I'm afraid that makes no sense at all.

I'd rather that it was reported, and maybe hyped a little, than have it not reported, as if we were pretending it didn't ever happen.
