Where do you start with this one?

We start with a guy who, when he wanted to go into politics, joined the party that was most popular in his district and voted with the other reps in his party when he was elected in order to help his career.

It's called opportunism and it's not very rare.

With him we have the additional twist that he is, if not an actual child molester, a child-porn enthusiast.

When he was arrested he knew that he could never be elected as a Republican ever again.

Meanwhile his stepdaughter was busy becoming a porn star.

Now, women in the porn industry are generally victims of child sexual abuse and/or neglect. It wouldn't surprise me if this guy's stepdaughter's entry into the porn world and his personal proclivities didn't have a disturbing link somewhere in the past.

He is a pervert and his daughter is, sadly, a whore.

Luckily, he wasn't able to fool the Repubican voters forever.

I think your reply at #36 pretty well sums it up. Well said!

Osculating the toes, maybe. :)

"With him we have the additional twist that he is, if not an actual child molester, a child-porn enthusiast."
"When he was arrested he knew that he could never be elected as a Republican ever again."

He was investigated, BUT NO CHARGES WERE FILED. The reason he was investigated was because he was a Republican politician and his adopted daughter was a porn star. His ADOPTED DAUGHTER was a porn star, NOT he and his wife. This was a political hit job. If you were in his position, the exact same thing could have happened to you.

Don't tell me you could never be in his position. No one wants their children to be porn stars when they grow up, but some are, and there isn't a thing you can do about it once they are adults.

Whats surprising to me is that he isn't more angry at his daughter. I guess if she is offering the only job he can get because the government has dragged his name through the mud, he has to swallow his pride and make the best of the situation.
