I don't think he should have to resign over this. He was just writing what he observed in some backwards cultures.

Webb appears to be a victim of influence by backwards cultures where women are sex objects and slaves, which explains his attitude toward women in the military and why he thought it was OK to chase after a woman half his age while married.

Rush just indicated that DU is having a major meltdown that their party didn't know about this and let this thing get this far. What did Nancy Pelosi know and who else knew about it? According to the Dims own rationale of the Foley incident especially their take on Hastert, Pelosi and her cohorts must resign now.

Mr. Webb is a writer and was writing fiction. He served as a Marine in Vietnam and won the Navy Cross. Frigging George Allen got a student deferment. I'd say Webb has earned the right to write about whatever the hell he wants.

I am also a writer. I write about rape, murder, and depravity. I also write about God, how much I love my wife, and the interactions of Jesus in my personal spirituality. I do not deserve to be judged, and neither does Webb. THIS IS WRONG.

Every Democrat running for every office in the land needs to be asked whether he or she, in light of these disturbing writings, continues to support this whacko for the US Senate. Ask them whether they will take the lead from their Republican counterparts and pressure Mr. Webb to resign and terminate any association from him whatsoever. Will they return any campaign donations they have received from Webb and his associates, etc?

When I saw the movie "Seven" (insane, sickening, revolting brutality) about ten years ago, I almost left the theatre, more than once before the movie ended and I later pondered how a morally balanced person could invent the horrible fiction portrayed there, and why one would want to.

Yes, it is an altogether different genre than the fiction found in these quotes from Mr. Webb's novel.

But, I think the principle question is the same.

Well, I think that Harry Reid ought to resign because of this. Where do I sign THAT petition?

If with a knowing wink you believe this will damage the Webb campaign, fine.

If you really believe this is a reflection of Webb's perversion and that it's "for the children" and protection from pedophilia, I believe you are wrong.

The excerpts I have seen don't manifest prurient sexuality, only a desription of the characters and the society which Webb describes.

Suppose I wrote a book and it included the following:

"The teenage girl shyly approached her father as he entered the room. He put out his arms and she hugged him. Instantly he turned her around, drew out the knife from his belt and slit her throat".

Am I some sort of sexual sadist? Child abuser? Have murderous fantasies?

Or did I just describe a frequent occurrence - an "honor killing" in the Arab world?

It may be sophisticated to use this against Webb because it may work.

It is dishonest and defamatory to actually believe the claim against Webb.

BUMP

Mr. (I use that honorific in respect to his past accomplishments not what he has become) Webb needs the kind of help he cannot get in the US senate.

As if THAT's going to happen.

Just being a realist here. Mr. Webb isn't quitting any more than Democrat Bill Clinton would quit once the DNA-stained dress thing came out.

The MSM is burying this story and Allen is going to come across as petty.
