Hypocrites? Show me someone who isn't one. Then, you'll be showing me news.

This time it is California assemblyman Mike Duvall. Highly conservative, strong opponent of gay marriage, darling of the religious right. He was caught on tape bragging about his sexual escapades with two women, other than his wife. The dialog is quite racy; you may read the transcript here.

I am not going to give any details here, I am not sure what the standards of decency are on this forum, and the transcript may not pass the test. You may read it in full at the link I gave here. But I must warn you, it reads like a Penthouse Forum letter.

OK, here is a snippet, but just one, mind you (with apologies to the moderators).

"I like spanking her," he is heard on the videotape.

"She goes, 'I know you like spanking me.' I said, 'Yeah, that's 'cause you're such a bad girl."'

Anyway, the upshot of it was that Duvall was removed from two leadership posts by the Republicans and eventually he resigned in disgrace.

Duvall received a 100 percent rating from Capitol Resource Institute, a conservative advocacy group, for his votes on legislation considered pro-family during the 2007-08 legislative session. He was also a very vocal, very strident opponent of gay marriage.

He doesn’t specifically have to say that it is wrong to spank your spouse during foreplay to be considered a hypocrite (and he wasn't spanking his wife, but his mistress). Anybody who espouses family values as strongly as he did and then admit to extramarital affairs (two of them) is a hypocrite as far as I am concerned.

And surprisingly, Republican Party saw it that way, usually conservatives don’t see anything wrong with hypocrisy, I don’t think many of them even understand the concept. But the Republicans did move against him and eventually he resigned. A just end to a religious hypocrite.

Wild guess: according to SirJosephPorter, YES, because, at least, Barney Franks provided a useful service for minorities.
