UnZipped: Another Republican Steps Down
Posted on May 29, 2008
Congressman Vito Fossella, another GOP moral crusader, has become the 27th Republican to retire from Congress rather than run for re-election. Reuters notes that: ‘Fossella, who had campaigned on a family values platform, escalated his party’s election-year woes this month when he was arrested on charges of drunken driving and then acknowledged he fathered a child, now 3, in an extramarital affair.’
Right-wing conservatives are always quick to rail against same-sex marriage and the ’sinful’ gay lifestyle, but until they learn to keep thier pious peckers in their pants they should STFU and give the rest of us break.
From The Huffington Post: Fosella Cries On House Floor After Drunk Driving, Adultry Revelations. And the New York Times reports that Republicans are having a heckuva time finding someone to run for Fosella’s seat.
That’s not particularly surprising.
