And he's a Republican! Didn't see that one coming
But I do love the photo! Shirtless pictures taken in the mirror should replace those official photo portraits with the flag.

It's been awhile since we had a sex scandal!

Its been awhile since they actually resigned with some dignity left. Kudos to Lee.

Well of course it’s a Republican, the title says he resigns. In the Democrat party it probably would be considered a résumé enhancer.

The way I'm reading the story, the photo of the bare chest is all the "sex" you are going to get. amiright?

I'm sure he was just posing half nude and making an ad so that he could explain his theories of trickle down econimics and minimal goverment to an interested lady friend.

Or he wanted sex.

Hmm. Maybe it should be renamed a "courting while married" scandal.

No Shirt, No Shoes, No House of Reps.

I dont know. I smell tip of the iceberg here. There has got to be more to the story than this. I mean, who hasnt sent half-naked photos of themselves to complete strangers on the internet?

its amazing, a Republican actually resigned! they didn't circle the wagons and put a D next to his name on FOX news... probably because it was a women of legal age involved, instead of underage boys as Republicans tend to go for

It might be the half of the story. Seems it is just shame so far. However, I have been known to walk around in the same manner of "half-naked" myself, dare I even confess sometimes...outside?

Maybe he should have included his birth certificate with the photo.
tulc(finds sending half-naked pictures of other strangers to strangers on the internet to be funner)

Oh good. Now the Democrats can elect a philanderer in his place.

 

[blueapplepaste]

Nice! It's been a while since we had a nice sex scandal in DC. Just isn't the same without some politician doing something completely idiotic.

 

[tulc]

Oh good. Now the Democrats can elect a philanderer in his place.

You know what they say in Chicago? "If they're going to open the door for you, it would be rude not to go through!"
tulc(wouldn't want to be rude)

If only Ted Kennedy had so much honor!

What I find astonishing is that he posted in the mfw section instead of the usual mfm section you find most republican anti-gays posting in. HH is partially correct in his statement that Democrats don't resign from "sex scandals". They also don't hypocritically preach about family values whilst at the same time boinking the nanny.

They do hypocritically whine about how the rich don't pay their fair share then cheat on their income taxes and stay in office anyway or take bribes from lobbyists and refuse to resign even after being caught red handed. Democrats don't resign no matter what the scandal.
