When Did You Stop Beating Your Wife, Congressman Wilson?
NewsReal ^ | October 27, 2010 | Jesse Hathaway

Seriously, though—when did Congressman Charlie Wilson (D, OH-06) stop beating his wife? Moreover, why is the media covering this up?

Two weeks ago, Big Government editor Mike Flynn obtained Belmont County (Ohio) court documents that revealed that Wilson repeatedly beat his wife Clara, to the point where she would be unable to stand.

According to Wilson’s own testimony, he would regularly kick, slap, beat, and punch Clara, accusing her of adultery. Clara’s deposition states that Congressman Wilson punched her with enough force to knock the wind of her, leaving her beaten and bloodied, slumped up against the kitchen cabinet.

To this day, the Ohio news media refuse to report the fact that a Democratic incumbent candidate physically abused his wife brutally over a period of years. As if this wasn’t bad enough, it gets worse: Ohio political “journalists” are actively covering for Congressman Wilson.

If this isn't making headlines, what else are mainstream journalists refusing to cover for political reasons? Thank goodness for citizen journalists.

The MSM is covering the tracks of a wife-beater because he’s a DemocRAT.

Evidently Wilson has 4 sons. Did they ever take Dad out behing the woodshed and kick the living crap out of him for Mom? Did Clara Wilson ever have a brother or neighbor willing to stand up to Charlie for her?

Where is chivalry today?

In Pelosi's district, some would consider this foreplay.

One reason is that Big Government destroyed their credibility with the Shirley Shirrod (sp?) debacle. Idiotic decision back then.

What’s the time tested saying? Something like:

“It takes a lifetime to build your reputation but one second to destroy it.”

The media’s attitude? Nothing to see here. But when Mark Foley made dirty talk with a House page, who was at the age of majority by the way and encouraged the flirting it was a national scandal. But a Dem brutalizing his wife? Eh, big deal according to the media. Move on to obsess about Christine O’Donnell correctly saying there’s no separation of church and state in the constitution and pretend somehow she put her foot in her mouth.

I live in Ohio. Belmont County is full of toothless, gun happy law enforcement controlled by a dozen unions up and down Ohio Rt. 7.

Don't believe a word they utter.

We have two #12 cast iron skillets in my home, and I sleep pretty soundly.

I treat the Mrs. with respect.

Just wait till he falls asleep after a night drinking, tie him up in his sheets and take a baseball bat to him. Then he'll know what it feels to be helpless.

Now that's funny, I don't care who you are!

And no, I am in no way condoning spousal abuse. It does strike me odd, however, how the hags at NAG do ...if it suits their political agenda.
