Shake the trees and you never know what will fall out!...............
Well that’s a bummer. Sex harassment? Could he be running for Senate?
Appears to be the former, not the latter.
GOP: “We’ll see your Conyers and Franken, and raise you one Trent Franks. We’re more concerned about women than you are.”
Probably not exactly what they are thinking—probably the guy is a known problem child. In the current climate, you can’t hide it.
“Could he be running for Senate?”
That was my thought.
McCain handing over the mantle of stupid.
The governor got a call from the McCain people letting them know time is very short.
Yeah, I should have read the article before posting. Only know him from being on TV, but his politics seemed to be conservative, even if his hands weren’t.
300+ million people in this country and we can’t find 535 who can keep their hands to themselves and/or their damn zippers zipped?!
As the names become public, and they will, both parties will be depleted of scoundrels....................
probably the safest R district in AZ, he’s my rep and usually the dems don’t bother running anyone against him

Sounds like Animal House in that place!
What I said to a colleague just this morning.
I was thinking Sodom and Gomorrah.

Are you speculating, or asserting that this happened?
Want to move south?
Next thing you know, somebody will figure out that when you have thousands of young males and females thrown together away from home and in a tense situation, they act like young people away from home and in a tense situation, and do what young males and females have been doing since the Garden of Eden. (The first time I was warned about this had something to do with the Airman and the WAC behind the dumpsters at Lackland. Never saw of this, just heard about it.)
Or a certain painting by Hieronymus Bosch...
“300+ million people in this country and we can’t find 535 who can keep their hands to themselves and/or their damn zippers zipped?!”
When it is the most corrupt people in a population who seek these positions because it is their only means to unimaginable wealth (they have no capability whatsoever to make it honestly)...then that is what you get.
