Associated Press and The Oregonian in Portland both completely flunked the party-ID test on Portland's brand-new openly gay Democratic mayor having a sexual relationship with an 18-year-old man and lying about it. The Oregonian story began:
Portland Mayor Sam Adams acknowledged Monday that he had a sexual relationship with an 18-year-old in summer 2005 and, on the eve of his campaign for the city's highest office, lied about it and urged the young man to lie as well.
Readers who weren't familiar with Adams could have been confused, since a Republican label later surfaced in the story:
Adams met Beau Breedlove in April 2005. Breedlove, then 17, was an intern at the Oregon Legislature for then-Rep. Kim Thatcher, R-Keizer.

“...the pedocratic party - how low can it go?”
I’m afraid much longer than you or I will ever imagine possible.
Are all the top dogs in Portland pedophiles now? Is it some sort of craze? How totally odd those people appear to be.
yet again more scandel from the Dems and yet again the media as far as I know are ignoring it.
No worries - he’s going to apologize later today. That makes it okay - right? Besides, he only lied about sex....so he can be trusted about all else...right? /sarc

Portland Mayor Sam Adams
It’s the Mayor of Portland... Is a party label really required?
Yes he's a Rat, but can you say "Larry Craig and Mark Foley"?
18 years old = adult = none of my business.
Only for Republicans
18 is above the age of consent, no crime, bad taste, maybe.
nonsense. the day it’s OK for men in their mid-40s to sodomize 18 year old boys is a cold day in hell.
“18 year old boys” can vote and join the military. That’s an adult. With a little luck, they’ll soon be able to buy beer and wines.
While there’s no doubt that Adams is liberal and presumably supports the Democratic party, Portland city offices are nonpartisan (candidates are not party-affiliated).
Read the article. He was 17 at the time.
so if the law said to take everyones’ guns away from them, would you consider that ok?
just because a bad law says an 18 year old boy can be buttf***** by a middle aged democrat, doesn’t mean decent people shouldn’t see it as the pedophilia it is
an 18 year-old boy with a 17-year old girl doesn’t bother be 10% as much as this does.
I would say the law is an ass, but then some democrat would start humping it. wait...
So the mayor walks around town with a rad bicycle trying to attract young boys to his side (or whatever).
You miss the point ~ he wasn’t 18!
These MSM guys are too clever by half ~ we can read between the lines. They wouldn't be writing this story at all if the kid really was 18.
Exactly. There are too many leftists in both major political parties, and this is an ongoing problem on the Republican side, while conservatives work towards seriously making the Republican Party a truly conservative political party again and for always.
He was 17 at the time he got “counseling” from the Mayor’s puppet show in his pants. If this were a Republican there would non-stop coverage in the state.
