>> Perversion is a thoroughly bipartisan affliction. Awww... dammit. The GOP is winning. Oh, well. Guess we'll just have to let them have this one... Hypocrisy Almost half the sex scandals we turned up involved someone saying one thing while doing another. The earliest example was womens’ rights champion Robert Packwood, who in 1992 was infamously slapped with several sexual-harassment and abuse charges from former female staffers. Solid Republican (17-9) Inappropriate conduct with a minor This type of scandal indicates at the least a serious flaw or lapse in judgment. The most infamous example is former Representative Mark Foley, who exchanged sexually charged emails and instant messages with underage pages. Two Republicans and one Democrat have been involved in this type of scandal. Lean Republican (2-1) Out-of-wedlock child Three Republicans have confirmed having children as a result of extramarital affairs, compared to one Democrat. Of course, Schwarzenegger is the latest. Solid Republican (3-1) Cuckolding Republicans have had four scandals involving an affair with a married woman—compared to one for Democrats. The only woman on this list, Helen Chenoweth, created a cuckquean (who knew?) out of her lover’s wife. Solid Republican (4-1) Coverup Either with money or behind-the-scenes wrangling or just weak denial lies, six Republicans have been caught covering up a sex scandal, compared with three Democrats, with payoffs ranging from $150,000 or a job for a spouse to, allegedly, $20. Lean Republican (6-3) The party of family values, who knew?
