Yes, don’t vote for a liberal agenda, vote for a conservative ideal; defined by having multiple affairs, breaking laws and abusing women.

Because. Obama.

GOP Poster Boy… I hate these people. They’re the true enemies of the USA.

"Prior to this year, I'd never heard of it, to tell you the truth," Jim Blue, a man interviewed by the Tennessean said of the DesJarlais abortion scandal. "Didn't have an impact on what the issues are."

Yeah, you know, like the President’s not an old white guy… and he wants to give brown people free healthcare… and Benghazi! Important issues like that!

The election results will show the hypocrisy of the republican voter.

“Didn’t have an impact on what the issues are.”

Rich white people’s abortions are never the issue.

If you have the resources and contacts to get one without running a gauntlet of fanatics, it never really happen.

Male Bible-Thumpers will see him as a HERO (as they all secretly want to do that exact same things he did) and as long as the only people he hurt were WOMEN it’s all A-OK with them.
To Paraphrase the old addage: “The only way for an Incumbent, Gerrymandered, Tea-Bagger Congressman to lose is to get caught in bed with either a Dead Girl, or a Live Boy.”
and, in the Vitter-Extention: if he tells everyone that “Jesus Has Forgiven Me” while crying his eyes out they will forgive him the Dead Girl.

Another case of IOKIYAR. DesJarlais has done the Jimmy Swaggart thing and asked Jesus to forgive him. Republican voters will be brainwashed by their pulpit pimp preachers to vote for him.

Not even then since Republicans always let Party members off the hook no matter what as long as they do the Jesus thing.

What a happy looking family. Neither kid looks like dad - wonder if there’s a reason?

Apparently that’s what a # does. I was going for a hashtag!

This male is so despicable as to not be human…He needs to be removed permanently from any position of power, ASAP!

Like I said before, Republicans don’t believe in anything.

Honestly, I feel sorry for the guy’s family. If I was this scumbag, I’d drop out of the public eye and work the rest of my life on repairing the harm I committed to those people who depended on me and trusted me. Conservatives really have no values.

Pretty much every anti-abortion Southerner is like that. My step-mother has been firmly against abortion all her life - except for the one day she took her knocked-up 16-year-old daughter to the clinic.

Don’t the party leaders have something to say about this? This is their best hope, their brightest apparently, or, this is what they like and they have found their man.

Dude ought to be ostracized not romanticized.

Why isn’t Boner being asked about this constantly?

How do you think that he made it to the top?

And the shear inattention and apathy of the democratic voter.
