Disturbing Sex Scandal Involves Swift Boat Vet - Bob Perry (Harpers)
Disturbing Sex Scandal Involves Swift Boat Family
By Ken Silverstein

Will Perry is the son of Bob Perry, a major funder of the Swift Boat Vets and the G.O.P. Will is also a G.O.P. donor, although he gives less than his father. From the Fort Bend Star:
http://www.fortbendstar.com/Columns/burner.htm

I don’t like to write about divorces. There’s seldom a happy ending and it is such nasty, personal business. But when egregious actions occur…I reserve the right to expose those actions to the public…Under questioning by Laura Perry’s attorney, Will Perry admitted he has been a sexual addict for many years, but had quit attending Sex Addicts Anonymous in January, 2008. He said he had sex with “probably” 20 prostitutes since his marriage. During this testimony, Mrs. Perry left the courtroom and her uncontrollable sobs in the hall could be heard inside. A chart in Will Perry’s handwriting that he had drawn several years ago tracing his sexual addiction blamed his sexual addiction problems on his father who he claimed was an alcoholic and verbally abusive.

1. There was a time when people would be condemned for blatantly blaming their faults on others
Doesn't seem like it was so long ago.

2. Typical GOP
It's never their fault. They're abusive parents and the children turn out to be abusive adults.

Yet they're all so certain they're absolutely right about everything in the world.

All we can do is work to get them out of power, keep them out of power, and make sure we never again have conditions favorable to the rise of an aristocracy that puts them back into power.

3. I knew Will spent way too much time in the barn.

5. And? We Want The Good Stuff On BOB Perry
He's the money behind the Slimeboaters and Ari Fliescher's goon squad. So, I assume, Bob is Will's dad. Now what about that alcohol and sex problem, Bob. Or should we ask Mrs. Perry...or her lawyer. Here's hoping things get so slimy and messy that it ties up all the blood money he's made and keeps him from spending it on Democrats!
