Ah, republican congressmen. They make it so easy. :)

Maybe he was drunk when it happened. Haven't you ever, while hammered, reached under a stall, grabbed your neighbor's foot, and scared the crap out of him/her*? :eek: :D

*Of course, if you do this to to a stranger, be prepared for an ass whipping.

The Sad thing is, the democrats are probablly just as bad...

The worse news is, we are paying them so much to do so little...:(

Yeah, but I didn't want a blowjob. I just wanted to scare the crap out of him/her. :p

So? they are not the one who are hypocrites

Personally what makes this a story to pay attention to is not that there was an attempt at sex but it was someone who was a plain faced hypocrite

Oh to have a picture of the senators face when the police badge was laid down.

Was it hope or despair?

It's true. Most democratic congressmen don't spend much of their day going, "Gays! Ech! Yucky!" between occasional visits to the restroom for anonymous quickies. :p

Ah, another member of that party of morals caught for an immoral act. Shocking really. I do wonder though if Fox News will try to stick a "D" in front of his name when they do the story.

Well thats cause the democrats just bend over to anything that sounds tolerant. The republicans are assholes, but they stick to being assholes.

I find it hard to believe that one party inherited all of the perverts and hypocrites. Just because we haven't heard any instances of hyprocisy from the Democrats, doesn't mean their clean. It just means they haven't been caught. :p

Probably seen it before, but...

Black man scared me says cruising politician

A senior Florida Republican has presented a novel defence for his actions after his arrest on charges of solicitation last month.

Bob Allen, co-chairman of the campaign to select Senator John McCain as the Republican US Presidential candidate, was spotted by police in Titusville, Florida on July 11th acting suspiciously at the men's toilets in a park.

Officers decided to send a policeman undercover to investigate, and within minutes Mr Allen allegedly agreed to pay him $20 (£10) to allow him to perform oral sex.

He was arrested and charged with solicitation to commit prostitution and faces a year in jail or a $500 fine.

As a Florida state representative he voted against a range of gay rights measures.

He resigned from the McCain campaign when he was arrested but maintains he is innocent and will not resign from the state legislature.

Mr Allen told police that he was not loitering in the public toilet looking for sex, according to documents seen by the Orlando Sentinel.

"This was a pretty stocky black guy, and there was nothing but other black guys around in the park," he said in a taped statement, and added that he was worried he would "become another statistic," meaning that he was concerned he would be assaulted.

The undercover police officer's statement says that Mr Allen twice peered over the top of a toilet cubicle he was occupying, then entered the cubicle.

They discussed payment for oral sex, but Mr Allen was concerned the park toilet was too public.

As Mr Allen then indicated to the police officer to follow him outside to his car, he was arrested.

Representative Allen had sponsored a failed bill in the Florida statehouse earlier this year, the Lewdness and Indecent Exposure Bill, designed to increase the penalties for committing "unnatural and lascivious acts or exposure or exhibition of sexual organs committed within specified distance of certain locations."

Since his election in 2000, he has been one of the most homophobic politicians in the Florida state senate.

He received the title of "Wicked Witch," which is reserved for "The Worst of the Worst," from Florida's Rainbow Democratic Gay & Lesbian organisation.

According to the biographical information provided on the Florida House of Representatives website, he is 48 and married with one child.

You make it sound like sticking to your guns even when you are in the wrong is a GOOD thing

It's repression. When they were younger, their sexual fantasies embarrassed and disgusted them. So rather than express those fantasies in healthy sexual behavior, they bottled them up and hid them. Until over the course of years, healthy sexual fantasies twisted into unhealthy sexual obsessions. Consumed by guilt, they lead secret lives. Talking out of one side of their face and sucking strange cock in airport lavatories with the other side of their face. That's also why so many pedophiles are priests. They joined the clergy to escape guilty urges to fuck that fifteen year old girl when they were seventeen and after a few decades of obsession and repression, they're diddling choir boys.

People healthier in their sexual expression experiment a bit in their teens and twenties and then go on to live normal lives.

whats with all the talk of these guys being GAY?

cant a straight man want a little cock now and then (well maybe not a little cock...)?

it is the one thing is wife cant provide.

I never mentioned gay. But oddly enough, they would probably be the first to label people like themselves(except for themselves of course) gay. :p

I really dont want to get off topic, but I bet there are just as many pedophile married lawyers as there are priests. The reason why the catholic priest scandal was so great was that in the Catholic community, the priest is seen as a spiritual guide. Just because you are a pedophile doesnt mean you are going to become a priest. If you're a sick fuck you're a sick fuck, no matter what career choice you make...

True he could be bi.

And I don't see the hypocrisy. The Republicans hate gay marriage and seeing gays in public, and this guy was interested in neither marriage nor public acceptance. In fact, he was living the very lifestyle that Republicans are supposed to be trying to force on all gays.
It seems some people just don't appreciate leading by example these days.

good point!

im sure his constituents will agree with you and return him (and all his ilk) to congress

It was not my intention to insinuate that all pedophiles are priests, or all priests are pedophiles. 'Finding God' is but one possible way that young confused men repress natural feelings until they become unnatural obsessions. It's certainly not the fault of the church that these people choose the wrong reasons for becoming priests. But I think it is their responsibility to screen them for it while it's still treatable. *nod*

But I digress. The reason so many republicans get caught in these kinds of behaviors is because they are sexually repressed. A lot fewer democrats are as repressed.

Egad! They're everywhere! :eek:

No biggie, I do agree that democrats are less repressed. Theres a quote:

"May you become as rich as a republican, and have the sex life of a democrat.":p

However, I can't for the life of me remember or even find who said this. It was a comedian I think...maybe Lewis Black?

True but as far as I know the bar association was not involved in playing hide the pedophile

Well it is a completely different system...I mean the catholic church isnt even remotely close to the bar assocation. If a lawyer is caught with child porn, it doesn't reflect on the bar assocation in any way. I am not trying to defend tge actions of the Church, in fact I find them utterly deplorable. All I am trying to say is that it is unfair to say all or even a majority of Catholic priests are pedophiles. I grew up Catholic, attended Catholic school all my life. Out of the dozens of priests I have encountered, only one was actually a pedophile. (Note, I am not Catholic anymore, currently agnostic)

I guess I was just unlucky that they managed to hide mine for like 20 years and put him in charge of a 200 kid elementary school I happened to attend

But either way I am done with the hijack

Darn gay Republicans. ;)

Maybe he just had a foot fetish and wasn't looking for anything else.
He just likes the feel of another man's foot encased in leather.
Or mayhaps praticising for his next job as a shoeshine boy.

Its just that the Church is filled with pompus assholes who would rather bitch about abortion than deal with real problems, so when a real problem shows up, they try to hide it to save face

Actually that one priest i knew that turned out to be a pedophile was one I used to altar serve with quite a bit when I was in 8th grade.

In retrospect that was kinda creepy...

Darn gay Republicans. ;)

No kissing babies for them! It's not safe for the kids.

I could see a request for toilet paper from an adjoining stall could be confused for this, but..

Really, this dickhead of a senator deserves all the bad publicity he can get. I don't understand how you can vote against hate crime legislation or oppose people not being fired for their sexual orientation.

i personally believe anyone should be allowed to solicit sex in public restrooms from other consenting adults as long as they are not intrusive with the uninterested.

the undercover detective should have yelled "not interested" from his stall and only arrested the member of congress if he persisted.
