"A prominent gay rights activist charged last week with sexually abusing a 15-year-old boy is a strong supporter of President Obama who has visited the White House more than a half-dozen times in the past two years, visitor logs show. Terrence P. Bean, 66, who raised more than a half-million dollars for Mr. Obama’s re-election campaign in 2012, last visited the White House on May 30 when he met with the president, first lady Michelle Obama and political adviser David Simas."
I expect President Obama to Gruber him any minute now despite the fact that Obama called him, "a great friend and supporter."
''Conservatives complain that President Obama gets a free pass from the media, which acts as a de-facto public-relations shop for the Democrat in the White House. Never has that charge seemed truer than now as an ugly rape scandal unfolds on the West Coast."
Interestingly enough, the second link comes from USA Today who hired that woman from National Journal, who did a hit piece on Darryl Issa, with input from the White House.
A statutory rape charge is not the end of the world.
Unless you are NAMBLA, a 66 year old and a 15 year old is not some teenaged fling. The charges were sodomy and rape.
The question is why liberal news outlets, outside of Oregon where it happened, have bothered to mention it. It's a doubleheader -- there's the gay aspect that rings the PC duck and cover alarm and it involves a buddy of the President (and a big Democrat donor) who every time is involved in some scandal or mess makes the media who shelters him look like a bunch of jackasses.
66yr old to a 15 yr old is not statutory rape...its child molestation
the POS should be castrated, if it is true
It was apparently not coerced. It is the very definition of statutory rape. The fact that it involved an ugly old man makes it nastier to contemplate, but that is not a legal standard.
Third-degree rape to have sexual intercourse with a person under age 16. Defense that the actor was less than three years older than the victim at the time of the offense Prison up to 5 Years
Second-degree rape to have sexual intercourse with a person under age 14. Defense that the actor was less than three years older than the victim at the time of the offense Prison up to 10 Years
First-degree rape to have sexual intercourse with a person under age 12 Prison up to 20 Years
If he goes to prison he is sure to enjoy his time there... a wig... some lipstick... he'll fit right in!
To bad he didn't cross state lines to have the sex because that gets really nasty.

I seem to recall people saying it was okay for female teachers to sleep with their male students... so... par for the course, what's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. Feel free to throw some more idioms in there.
FTR, this is statutory rape and should be equally prosecuted.
Guilty until proven innocent is common stuff on this forum.
I wonder how many crimes have been committed by undisclosed Super Pac donors , regardless of team. That dark money comes from inside and outside the U.S., individuals and corporations. Not too different than the " angel funding" of ISIS.
I wonder if this will be one of those 'ongoing investigations' o will not 'comment' upon.
