A third Republican Homeland Security higher up has been arrested and charged for illegal contact of a sexual nature with a minor.
Are these the family values half of America agreed to via their vote? Or, is this some kind of sicko power thing? Why THREE from Homeland Security? Were perverts the only ones to apply to run the Predator program?
I'd guess it's a power thing more than a Republican thing -- just their politics make it seem more hypocritical when they get busted.
You mean there has never been a
Democrat pedophile?
I don't think that's what squinney was saying, but the "they do it too" response is pretty predictable. Thanks for playing.
That's what ya have, McG? ... From 29 years ago??
It has to do with repression of natural instincts and urges.
Look at the Japanese - high societal repression, high levels of 'perversion' in their society.
It reminds me of 'desperate housewives' ratings; fourteen out of the fifteen states who have the highest TV ratings for it are Red states.

And a three year relationship with a 14 year-old babysitter, while repugnant, isn't quite the same as predatory internet behavior.
Because I know what the response to that statement will be, I will repeat the words "WHILE REPUGNANT".
Repugnant.
Repugnant.
Repugnant.
You seemed to be attacking Republicans (with quite a broad brush) as being pedophiles.
First of all, I haven't seen the party affiliation of the latest person, nor do I care. He was caught and that is good as I hope every child predator gets caught. But to imply it is a Republican problem is nothing more than argumentative.
And we know how you HATE to argue....
I must say, the Conservatives in Britain also see to have the most Baroque sexual scandals...you know, MPs dying or erotic auto asphyxiation and such.
Why would anyone asphyxiate their auto? And how is that erotic?
Repression? Maybe. But, why would so many be Republican rather than Democrat? Dems just seem to come right out with it if they are gay, such as Barney Franks, and the Gov. from up North - Maryland?? or Mass?
Being homosexual is one thing, as are extramarital affairs, but the GOP seems to go over the line with sex clubs, (Ryan) male prostitutes (Gannon), pedophilia (Homeland Security and alleged Bush Reagan Boy Toy Ring) Seems more deviant to me.
Doyle gave his name and job title in his first instant message to the undercover officer, Rodgers said. "He was very upfront about who he was."

The man should be jailed for stupidity or even arrogance. To play sex games with minors and present your identity shows just how sick this man is.

To be mentally off and in charge of US security is a dangerous combination. To be an important man in HS he is probably a Republican.

Remember the totally incompetent boss of FEMA? He was a chum of the president and loved horses.

I knew someone would come along who was an expert and would be able to point out my errors.

Isn't repression a fairly key conservative ...... at least in public....virtue?
You know, part of the sexual conservatism etc.?
You guys crack me up.
I laugh everytime somebody brings up this whole conservative = repression/boring in bed thing. Give me a break. Talk about painting with a broad brush...
Whoa...if true that is very interesting...suggests he is one of those who think it no crime...OR that he felt invincible, above the law.
Not very desirable qualities in a person with his former job, but not uncommon in paedophiles.
Great opportunities for blackmail and forcing him to give information etc.
Glad they got him.
True, dlowan. Teach them abstinence and they will abstain, right? No need for contraceptives, abortions, or morning after pills 'cause we're tryin' our darndest to populate our base, one republican at a time.
jp - I would never accuse them of being boring in bed. I've never done anything close to being scrubbed down with falafel!

Wow...they are damned brave if they are commonly coming "out with it" as a matter of routine...especially in the climate of anti gay nastiness the religious right seem to be trying to whip up in your country.

I don't know as anyone is especially suggesting they are boring in bed....more that public repression may breed more florid behaviour in secret....
They might be more interesting in bed for all I know.
I don't even think it is especially insulting...I think a lot of conservatives would see repression....ie fairly rigid morals, intolerance of "deviance" etc..... as an acknowledged virtue.
