DesJarlais, who portrayed himself during his re-election campaign as a "consistent supporter of pro-life values,"

U.S. Rep. Scott DesJarlais, R-Tenn., says God has "forgiven me" and asked "fellow Christians" and constituents "to consider doing the same."

They always do that. Like the time Jimmy Swagart told his followers to forgive him in the spirit of Christianity for messing it up with some striptease prostitutes in a motel one night.

The hickabillys following him got it, and He's still on the air.

What would Americans do to a Democrat for doing that?

It's a disfunctional nation, and it is going to crash like Humpty Dumpty, with its only record in history being the fastest one to come and go.

Hypocrisy is no respecter of parties this is true however, professing God has forgiven you
without proof is another matter, We don't know that God has done any such thing.
If in his own mind he was sincere about being sorry and changed his ways that might in
fact constitute forgiveness. In addition to his forgiveness, He must prove God has
forgiven, no not a letter from God but a clear signal of change in his life.
Then again what is they say about leopards and spots?

Exactly.

I was too busy attending the ABA convention. Now be nice.
I think I saw you there! Ugly, ill-fitting suit, look of dull incomprehension on a puffy, glabrous face?

Hope you enjoyed it.

How is it that a practicing lawyer has so much free time?
I organise my days intelligently. You might try it sometime. Or doing anything intelligently for that matter.

Were you the beneficiary of affirmative action based on your first people's heritage and/or gender?
Not that I know of. I didn't identify myself as Indian on the application. Being male might have helped, but the fact that I was an NCO in the Air Force probably had more to do with it, along with my undergrad grades and scores on the aptitude test.

Louisiana Rep. Vance McCallister (R-Your Pants)–who is married with five children, ran for office as a “Christian conservative,” and was heavily supported and promoted by the cast of “Duck Dynasty”–has been caught on video getting frisky with also-married staffer Melissa Anne Hixon Peacock, who worked as his district scheduler.

The footage–which takes place in McCallister’s office–was obtained through unknown means by the Ouachita Citizen. The incident occurred on Dec. 23rd, two days before the celebration of the birth of his lord and savior, Jesus H. Christ. Before we take a look at that, though, let’s meet McCallister.

Oh look! There he is, being all family man like and bragging about his fabulous morality and religiosity! Oh, how McCallister wishes that the liberal scum in Washington cared about faith and family as much as he does. One can only assume he never got a chance to meet Anthony Weiner.

In my view Bill can never be forgiven for changing the media act or for free trade with China but these 3 are special in their own way.....






On December 19, 1998, the House of Representatives impeached Bill Clinton on two charges related to his extramarital affair with Monica Lewinsky. (The charges were for perjury and obstruction of justice.) The historic vote, and subsequent trial in the Senate, involved the work of three men who were elected Speaker of the House Of Representatives by the Republican majority, Newt Gingrich, Bob Livingston and Dennis Hastert.




Gingrich later admitted that, while he was pushing for Clinton’s impeachment, he was engaged in an affair with a Congressional aide. “There were times when I was praying and when I felt I was doing things that were wrong. But I was still doing them,” Gingrich said in 2007. He later said the situation was “complex and, obviously, I wasn’t doing things to be proud of.”




After Gingrich announced his resignation, Republicans unanimously selected Rep. Bob Livingston (R-LA) to succeed him. Livingston represented the party as Speaker-elect in the led up to the impeachment vote.


On the day of the impeachment vote, Livingston announced he was resigning following revelations that he had engaged in an extramarital affair. According to Hustler Magazine Publisher Larry Flint, who offered a reward for information about the sex lives of members of Congress, he “found four women who said they had been involved with Mr. Livingston over the last 10 years.”




Following Livingston’s resignation, which occurred on the same day the House voted on impeachment, Rep. Dennis Hastert (R-IL) quickly gained support of the Republican leadership to succeed him as Speaker-designate. He began formally serving as speaker in January 1999, and held that role while the Senate conducted their trial on the articles of impeachment.


On Thursday, Hastert was indicted on charges that he illegally structured $1.7 million in payments to an individual in an attempt to cover up prior misconduct. According to reports, the payments were allegedly intended to “conceal sexual abuse against a former male student he knew during his days as a teacher in Yorkville, Ill.” The LA Times also reported that “investigators also spoke with a second man who raised similar allegations that corroborated what the former student said.”

This story has not received nearly the amount of attention it deserves.

The reaction to this story seems to be fairly minimal, which is absolutely disgusting considering if it had come out while he was actively speaker, the entire party would have been undermined. I mean ****, imagine if a story broke today that Harry Reid or John Kerry was paying someone off so that they wouldn't disclose that they were a stereotypical rapey gym teacher. It would be politicized in a second, and I would say rightfully so. I hope this Jesus-loving creep has been worried his whole life that he will burn for all eternity when he dies.

While Hastert has pleaded guilty to a financial violation, prosecutors said, "the actions at the core of this case took place not on the defendant's national public stage but in his private one-on-one encounters in an empty locker room and a motel room with minors that violated the special trust between those young boys and their coach."

Ex-Speaker Hastert enters prison _ now Inmate No. 47991-424 - NetZero



Former U.S. House Speaker Dennis Hastert wheeled himself into a federal prison in Minnesota on Wednesday to serve his 15-month sentence in a hush-money case involving revelations that he sexually abused at least four boys while a high school wrestling coach in Illinois.

The 74-year-old Republican — one of the highest-ranking U.S. politicians to ever go to prison — arrived around noon at the facility in Rochester where he will be known as Inmate No. 47991-424.

Hastert, who began using a wheelchair after falling ill last year, wore a black shirt and camouflage pants as he wheeled himself into the complex between razor-wire fencing. The only person accompanying him was a woman, who followed him carrying crutches, a plastic bag and a small brown box.

Jolene Burdge, the sister of one Hastert victim, said in a phone interview later Wednesday that she never fully believed until Hastert went in that someone as powerful as him would end up behind bars for what he did.

When sentenced in April in Chicago, Hastert was branded "a serial child molester" by U.S. District Judge Thomas M. Durkin — and Burdge also spoke. Turning to Hastert in court, she described how she was among the first to broach his abuse of kids, telling him, "I hope I have been your worst nightmare."

Her brother, Stephen Reinboldt, died of AIDS in 1995. She said Wednesday that Hastert's imprisonment brings her some closure.

"This whole ordeal is sad," Burdge said. "But when you abuse children, you need to suffer the consequences — no matter who you are."

Hastert was never charged with child abuse because the statutes of limitation blocked prosecutors from filing charges dating back to when Hastert coached at Yorkville High School, from 1965 to 1981. Instead, Hastert was charged with violating banking laws for trying to pay $3.5 million in hush money to one victim referred to in court papers only as "Individual A."

One former wrestler testified during Hastert's sentencing, saying he was abused when he was in the school locker room.

"I looked up to coach Hastert," said 53-year-old Scott Cross, who also is the brother of a state Republican leader. "I was devastated. I felt very alone."

The Illinois congressman-turned-high-paid lobbyist must serve at least 85 percent of his sentence, or just over a year.

The nation's longest-serving GOP House speaker — who for eight years was second in the line to the presidency — was subject to the same protocol as other new inmates, which typically includes a full-body strip search. Inmates also trade their street clothes for prison garb.

Unlike other prison-bound Illinois politicians, Hastert didn't speak to the media before going in. By contrast, imprisoned ex-Gov. Rod Blagojevich chatted with reporters and posed for cameras in the hours before entering a prison in Colorado in 2012 to serve a 14-year sentence for multiple corruption convictions.

Hastert will serve his term at the 64-acre Rochester Federal Medical Center, a prison that specializes in care for physically ailing or mentally ill inmates and is near the Mayo Clinic. Hastert nearly died from a blood infection and suffered a stroke after he pleaded guilty on Oct. 28. He also has diabetes.

The facility, despite its name, is a prison. It holds just less than 700 inmates from all security classifications. Among them is Jared Lee Loughner, who is serving a life term for killing six people in the 2011 shooting that targeted and injured former U.S. Rep. Gabby Giffords of Arizona.

A quarter of the prison's inmates have been convicted of sex-related crimes, according to the Bureau of Prisons. Durkin, the judge in Hastert's case, said the prison's large population of child molesters should reduce chances that Hastert would be singled out for attacks in a prison culture in which those who hurt children are considered the lowest of the low.

The same prison has held other disgraced politicians, including Dan Rostenkowski, a Democrat and a powerful U.S. House member from Illinois who pleaded guilty to mail fraud in the 1990s. He died in 2010.

Hastert sat in a wheelchair during sentencing and used a walker to deliver a statement. Durkin said the prison would have the facilities to treat Hastert, noting, "This is not meant to be a death sentence."

Hastert's life will now be highly regimented, from frequent head counts to shakedown searches. Physically able inmates must work from 7:40 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Jobs include mopping floors for as little as 25 cents an hour.

Once released, Hastert must spend two years on supervised release and undergo sex-offender treatment.

Prosecutors described Hastert's payments to Individual A as something akin to an out-of-court settlement, saying Individual A wanted to bring in lawyers and put the agreement in writing — but that Hastert refused.

Court filings detailed the abuse allegations, describing how Hastert would also sit in a recliner in the high school locker room with a direct view of the showers.

Personally, I love the whole "God has forgiven me" bullsh*t. Really? God has forgiven you has he? Got proof of that? Did he give you a certificate of forgiveness that you can show everyone? Of course being the fine, upstanding criminal/pervert that you are, we should just take your word for it that you and God had a little confab about what you did and God said you guys were still cool.


Hell you could have some dingnut set off a dirty nuke, destroying a solid quarter square mile of city who would then exclaim after being caught that god has forgiven him. Presumably because god really liked destroying cities and stuff himself as per the Bible.

Jailed former House Speaker Dennis Hastert says a man who accused him of sexual abuse should return $1.7 million in hush money because he broke his silence by talking to the feds.

The demand was made in Hastert's response to a lawsuit filed by the accuser, known only as Individual A, who is trying to recoup the rest of the money the politician promised him.

"To the extent any contract existed between plaintiff [Individual A] and defendant [Hastert], plaintiff breached that contract," Hastert's lawyers wrote.

"Plaintiff's breach of conduct resulted in damages to defendant and plaintiff is accordingly required to return $1.7 million to defendant."

Individual A spoke to FBI agents who contacted him about his agreement with Hastert, but otherwise he has never spoken publicly about his accusations.

His attorney, Kristi Browne, said it was Hastert who had reneged.

"Mr. Hastert has decided that rather than live up to his promise to compensate his victim for his molestation and resulting injury, he will ask his victim to pay him," she said in a statement.

"He admits to agreeing to make payments, but then denies that it is an agreement that he has to keep. His response is predictable and we look forward to entering the discovery phase of the case."

After Hastert pleaded guilty to the financial crime, Individual A sued him, saying he was still owed $1.8 million. In his response, Hastert says there was no legal contract and even if there was, his accuser would have broken it.

Individual A's "retention of the $1.7 million is unjust," his attorneys wrote.

Not only does Hastert want his money back, he thinks Individual A should pay his attorney's fees.

At his sentencing, Hastert admitted he "mistreated" and "took advantage" of former students who came forward to say they were molested -- three of them anonymously.

"What I did was wrong and I regret it," he said at the time
