We know one thing... the party without any values would have kept him on staff.

I'm sure you do "know" that, just like you all "know" things instinctively. No need for any factual basis, you just "know" stuff......lotsa stuff.

Hang on a second. The boy is 17. He said everything was consensual. In Illinois, the age of consent is 17.

So, what is the problem again?

Not only that...the media wouldn't have bothered reporting it.

Hey libs, you people have coarsened society so much that even the GOP has stopped giving a damn.

Why was he fired?

Also, there was no cause for arrested. Which is why there will be no charge filed. What are they suppose to charge him with? Consenting meet-up with another consenting person?

The only problem here is the guy is married, has a family, and was out cruising for sex. Which was why he was fired.

Cheating on your spouse is not a crime. It says a lot about your moral character, though, or the lack thereof. The press is doing a terrible job of reporting this story. They are trying to make it sound like he met up with an underage boy.

The real issue here is he cheated on his family.

I'm a baby-eating gay atheist. I would never cheat on my husband. Perfectly happy here. Too bad Republicans are forcing many in their ranks to be unhappy with life.

For once, you and I have to agree there. The way the GOP has turned a blind eye to everything Trump has done that is wrong certainly shows that they stopped giving a damn. Never seen such a bunch of spineless individuals in my life.

It sucks when the right starts winning using the left's tactics, doesn't it?
