Sources say....

David Brooks was seen exiting a closet with Barney Frank and Lindsy Graham....Thus confirming his bi-partisan credentials as a reporter...

Film at 11 !!!

In reference to Republican Senators: they have many Sisters of Dorothy, who dance on that side of the street. There is one other not mentioned who is quite prominent. Secondly, just because they are married does not mean anything. Where the opposition party will get us time and time again is: you cannot preach morality on one hand and then on the down-low, do everything that is in opposition to it. Hypocrites run amok in the Grand Old Party./Just Asking - seoul62.......

“I’d bet this is a flat lie. Or maybe it’s different for guys, but, speaking as a woman, if someone (man or woman) put a hand on my thigh without my invitation, he or she would be told to remove it instantly. That hand wouldn’t stay there “the whole time” - it would be gone in a split second.”

My thoughts too, as a guy. If the “invitation” wasn’t rejected, then what is he complaining about?

Very good point

"I sat next to a Republican senator once at dinner and he had his hand on my inner thigh the whole time.

What does dinner take with politicians at a table?

Oh, I imagine a couple of hours!

I'm with you, if he didn't do anything about it and had another mans HAND ON HIS INNER THIGH the whole time who is the poofter here?

Both of them

Like most of us, the senator had heard that Brooks had no balls & rather than trust, he just wanted to verify...

I’m so tired of hearing about this shit...from both sides of the isle. Here we are...figuritively speaking with our pants down with this leftist puke as our President..with the warm and fuzzy “Oprah” mentality of emotion guiding our voting public. With our asskisser-in-chief prostrating himself before the leaders of this world and the threats we have facing us from Iran, North Korea, nukes in Pakistan within reach of the Taliban, the illegal swarm, etc., and these jerkoffs (literally) who’ve been elected to public office can’t control themselves and their impulses. We are going to pay as a nation for the low, low moral quality of our “leaders” just as much as we’ll pay for the leftist ideology that’s hijacked our nation. There’s no self discipline or self respect in the personal lives of these elected representatives and none of the same in their political leadership either.

So, if Brooks didn't put and end to the behavior by one means or another, then we must assume that he had some reason for tolerating being touched. Hmmm.... Then again, why didn't Brooks publish the vile Republican's hypocritical behavior and destroy his reputation and career? Hmmm....
This doesn't pass the sniff test, to my way of thinking.
