Wasn't it supposed to be Thursday or Friday?

Joking aside, I think he may be having an affair. He put out that strange tweet about his wife the other day.

So my guess if and when he feels he needs to save his marriage or whatever.

It's AGC Gossip. They don't usually have a lot of political gossip so it kind of stood out. It was posted on 4/19.

This A- list politician looked like he had a fast rising political career. Now? Put a halt to it which is a big shocker. Reason? The buzz about those multiple affairs was going to leak. He is hoping that calling it quits will keep those affairs out of the limelight. Jason Chaffetz (Utah Republican member of U.S. House of Representatives)


His name at the end is in red font..they do that when there are "a link to the solution or substantial clues"

In this case, the link was a NYT article about him stepping down and his excuses..

It is Chaffetz, with two ffs.

So, if Chaffetz finally actually calls it quits, does he get to keep his campaign coffer?

If HRC did 1/10th of what these criminals have done, she would have been hanged on the front lawn of the White House.

I just read his Wikipedia entry. That guy's an asshole!!! May he end up in the big house. He's got it coming, if Louise Mensch is correct.
