Republican Sex Scandals. I knew there were some, but not THIS many.

[Maddy McCall]

I knew about pro-lifers Henry Hyde's and Bob Barr's abortion scandals, and a few others...but I had no idea that there were THIS many Republican scandals.

1. ...anti-gay activist charged with molesting a 16 yr. old boy...

:grr:

[Erika]

2. J C Watts also had a love child or whatever. n/c

[kath]

20. More than one. Gotta love those "family values" Repugs!

[Bozita]

3. Very interesting link!

Don't miss the "Family Values" page.

[napi21]

4. The most important one is:

George W. Bush, Republican president, accused in a criminal complaint and lawsuit of raping Margie Schoedinger, who was later suicided. Accused by Tammy Phillips, a former stripper quoted in the National Enquirer in 2000 saying she had an affair with Bush that had ended in 1999.

Firat, why isn't he on the sex offenders list? ANYONE accused and sued for a sex crime gets put on a "Sex offender" list. Did Daddy get him out of this one too?

Second, I'd feel more confident if it wasn't the Enquirer, but where is Tammy???? I'd love to hear from her about now.

[FreedomAngel82]

5. Wow, I didn't know this one!

I knew he had a black girlfriend before he met Laura and he got her pregnant and they made her have an abortion when she didn't want one. She started talking in 2002 and she was found dead in her home.

[Bozita]

6. If they published her name, they've got the goods

You can bet that the story was vetted by their lawyers.

[libertypirate]

7. Well maybe you might consider this one:

The part that says 'call boys took midnight tour in the Whitehouse'

Why would a call boy be in the Whitehouse, after midnight?

Also the Franklin Cover-up should be on that list.

[jillan]

12. Whoa!

They all must've been poopin in their pants
when they were going after Clinton for a bj!

[FreedomAngel82]

21. I love that cartoon!

[FreedomAngel82]

13. Would Jeff Gannon have been around than?

[FreedomAngel82]

10. Here's some more articles for you on Tammy

http://www.americanpolitics.com/20000103Baker.html

http://www.ledgeofliberty.com/2004/06/who_killed_marg.html

http://www.bartcop.com/panties.htm

I found this very interesting about him and Laura. Does anybody know about this and if it's true?

However, the Republican contender is a genuine family man, say insiders.
He married his wife Laura in November 1977, after knowing her 90 days.
But with less than eight months to go to the 2000 election, the first big sexual broadside
has been fired at the Bush bandwagon by 35-year-old Tammy Phillips,
a partner in a gym in Carrollton, Tex.

Tammy was an aerobics person wasn't she? I googled her name and found references to someone with her name who did aerobics.

http://www.bmezine.com/bushfraud/ (This page has a lot of good stuff on there)

[napi21]

17. So why has none of this hit the MSM?

I heard about the aborted baby of a girlfriend in his past, but even that story disappeared! This Tammy is still alive! Why is she so quiet?

[FreedomAngel82]

22. I'm not sure

Is she still a live? :shrug: Bill Clinton was all over the news but not this? :eyes:

[Maru Kitteh]

19. Accused and sued does not get you on the list, convicted does

If we can't do better than a conveniently dead chick and some stripper in the Enquirer it does not and should not mean any more than the bullshit Hillary had 247, or whatever stupid number they came up with, people killed. All of that was based on bullcrap evidence and apparently so is this. Solution? Find and confirm better evidence.

[napi21]

26. You're probably right on the accused, but I guess we need to find out

if there was an arrest. I do know, even if you're found NOT guilty, or even INNOCENT, your name stays on the list of sex offenders!

I can't say for sure, but wouldn't you think, if there was an accusation, & a law suit, there just might have been an arrest?????

[EST]

8. There are, literally, hundreds and hundreds of such cases

available on the Internet. Last fall, as a project in curious events, I did a bit of research and came up with 726 cases in which the political proclivity of these perps was known or claimed by them. Of seven hundred twenty six, there were exactly three who claimed to be democrats.

Does this represent a trend, a fundamental truth? I really don't know but it does seem to fall into the general belief system I have with dems characterized by their ability to empathize with others and the greater tendency to "walk a mile in other's shoes."

[bettyellen]

9. this is always a fun site, redmorals.....

they do need to update it though.

15. TN repug committed suicide after being charged with indecent exposure

This fine example of republican family values had exposed himself in front of teenage girls.
www.chattanoogan.com/articles/article_23202.asp

[FreedomAngel82]

25. I didn't hear this and I live here

Heh! (The site's name) The same .com site also told of how sometime last year there was a state senator named Jeff Miller who was a co-sponser of some "marriage amendment act" which will make it harder for couples to get divorced right away (I think you have to have counseling or something like that). The day it passed he himself was getting a divorce because he had an affair with an aide of his who was much younger than he was (I believe late/mid twenties or early thirties and he was in his mid/late fourties). His wife was interviewed and she said it wasn't gay people ruining marriage, it was divorce and adultery.

[juliana24]

16. Ted Bundy ,Infamous serial rapist killed way more then 16 women.

Get your facts straight.

He killed at least 50-75 women according to law-enforcement agents.
Maybe more. :(

[Maddy McCall]

18. Not my "facts."

Perhaps you should contact dkos and correct him.

I think the more significant fact here is that Bundy was a REPUBLICAN.

[varkam]

23. Here's my favorite...

Bob Barr, Republican Congressman from Georgia. Sponsored the anti-gay Defense of Marriage Act, saying "The flames of hedonism, the flames of narcissism, the flames of self-centered morality are licking at the very foundation of our society, the family unit." Was married three times. Paid for his second wife's abortion. Failed to pay child support to the children of his first two wives and while married to his third and present wife was photographed licking whipped cream off of strippers at his inaugural party.

--

Gimme those good old fashioned family values!

[SillyGoose]

24. OMG...one guy spent $5 million on prostitutes!

You can't make this stuff up. Holy shit...how did he have time to do anything else?

Richard A. Dasen Sr., Republican benefactor of conservative Christian groups, convicted of sexual abuse of children, promotion of prostitution and several counts of solicitation, enough to add up to a sentence of 126 years in prison. Investigators estimated that he spent up to $5,000,000 on prostitutes.

[BlueIris]

27. And the right claims Clinton is the biggest sex addict politician ever.

Jesus.

[jillan]

28. send this thread to KO!

He just might talk about it.

[caledesi]

29. New Gingrich

The Atlanta Journal Constitution noted that Gingrich married wife number three, a congressional aide much younger than he is, "after a long-term adulterous affair."

The affair was going on when the hypocrite was calling Clinton a criminal!

[Maddy McCall]

30. and while his wife was dying of cancer, if I recall correctly.

I believe he left his wife while she was sick with cancer.

And these are the people who say gay marriage will harm the honor of marriage. :eyes:

[in_cog_ni_to]

32. He did do that. He went to the freakin' HOSPITAL to tell her he was

divorcing her. They're all hypocrites.

[Maddy McCall]

35. I thought I recalled that.

I don't see how their private lives can be kept so private, yet Democrats' lives are there for the exposing.

[caledesi]

37. That was his FIRST wife. Wife #2 was given the "bounce" over

the telephone!

[No Exit]

31. Don't forget Mary Kay LeTourneau's republican father, John G. Schmitz

His name was John G. Schmitz. He was a republican congressman. He had his family of which Mary Kay was one of the daughters--then he had his second set of (two) children, whom he had with his outside woman, and whom he did not acknowledge or support.

Mary Kay had at least two brothers, and they are currently bigtime republicans, having worked in government, etc. I think one of them still does. Mary Kay's brother, John P. Schmitz, worked for Reagan and then for Big Bush, and was involved in Iran/Contra.

One of Mary Kay's brothers is married to the sister of Jeb Bush's wife Columba. That makes him Jeb's brother-in-law.

And of course we know Mary Kay LeTourneau is a famous child molester.

Read this. It will blow your mind.

34. I'll have to print these lists out to use on my show.

Thanks!

[No Exit]

36. You're welcome! Spread it far and wide!

So many of these listed scandals are so much more... icky, than Clinton's romp with an ADULT WOMAN was. I mean, guy in his 50's playing around with woman less than half his age? Yawwwn... we've all seen it. But... doing it with CHILDREN? Like some of the people on this list did? EWWWWWW!!!

And the scandals on this list don't even scratch the surface of all the garden-variety adultery that's been uncovered among the so-called "family values" party members. Because adultery isn't treated as a criminal offense, so it is considered small-time. If we wanted to talk adultery, these lists of offending republicans would be MILES longer.
