GOP Lawmaker admits giving man $80 but doesn't know why...

This The title, Four Eyes comes from the name given to the dragon which befriends Enrico

Amazing how the more power governments acquire the more corrupt they become regardless of party isn't it Wayne. Look at all of the wonderful examples unearthed over the last couple of years as the partisan divide has widened during the Obama administration and advocates on both sides of the aisle have turned to creating intrigue about their opposition in an attempt to discredit the other side.

Perhaps the solution to the corruption lies in taking away some of the power so that the corrupt profit less by wielding the power they have? Just a thought.

The aliens came back and cleansed the earth of the corruption and illicit desires therefore the fall of rome. Ancient Alien Theorists.

I couldn't have said it better if I'd a thunk it myself.

You'd think we all could agree on that one!

Naw. Politicians are just that.

Unless the People rise up and take back the power it will not change.

I probably shouldn't even voice an opinion, but what the hell.... here goes:

When I opened this, I was expecting to see $80 million, or $80 thousand..... we're not even talking $800 though, just $80 as in eighty dollars, meaning eight ten dollar bills or however you'd like to break that down.

Then I waited to see if it was $80 of stolen funds, tax payer's dollars (which inadvertently I suppose it is) etc. But it turns out its just from the lawmaker's own pocket. Again... $80. Not stolen, not embezzeled, or otherwise shady in terms of his possession there-of.

His political affiliation? At this point, COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT.... the funds (all $80 of them) are legit.

His sexual preference? Really none of my business I just don't care. $80 from his own pocket he tried to pay to a young but legal adult. If anything I could see them slapping him with prostitution charges, but it seems the story is vague in areas.

So.... its only $80, of legitimate earned cash, from a politician regardless of political stance, to a gay prostitute who's upset the deal didn't go through, not enough cash, maybe the gay kid is scamming something, who knows, who cares, but the whole point is........ why is this even a story?

No offense Wayne, but reading that really was a waste of time. The fact that I added to it now doesn't help either, so that makes us now both guilty of wasting everyone's time.

Just saying,

I guess you missed the part him being a rabid anti-gay legislator who pushes the anti-gay agenda. And he's not the first Republican homophobe to get caught in a homosexual tryst.

It's called hypocrisy.

The part about him admitting he gave the kid $80 but he has no idea why is called stupid -- Guam tipping over from too many people stupid.

No I definitely caught that which is why I mentioned the potential scam part. But if you prefer, I'll just add this:


Politician found to be hypocritical......... not a newsflash.
