But let’s get back to the real problem of political corruption, does anyone think this will get investigated and that things he voted on will need to be affirmed by the remaining members or will nothing happen? Do I hear Tammy Wynette, “Stand By Your Man” playing in the background? I remember not so long ago that other Orange County song favorite, “Stand By Your Tan” (for Tan Nguyen). But that’s another Orange County fool.

“Family Values” California state assemblyman representing Orange County, Republican Michael D. Duvall, resigns for apparently not cheating on his wife. Well you have to take his word for it, or maybe believe that hypocrisy has been bred in. In my opinion the Republican Party has been taken over the most extreme religious right (people who love to push their beliefs on others while trying to take away rights of those they just hate) and that’s who they need to extract from their party if they real want to win. Good Luck, because as they said in WACO, “We Ain’t Coming Out”. He is just another name that can be added to the list of Republican 2009 summer of love: Senator John Ensign (NV), Senator Paul Stanley (TN), Governor Mark Stanford (SC), SC Board of Ed Chair, Kristin Maguire.

The scumbag is now saying he was just “telling stories and that these sexual escapades never really happened. Isn’t it funny how these holier-than-thou right-wing scolds: (1) Are always the biggest sexual deviants around? and, (2) Can never take responsibility for their own misdeeds when they get caught, even though they want everyone else to take responsibility for theirs?

On a more humorous note, on the Stephanie Miller program on Air America radio this morning, one of the co-hosts said that Duvall looked ” a mash-up of the Skipper from Gilligan’s Island and the Sta-Puff Marshmallow Man”. I laughed.

I’m glad you posted on this, but what strikes me in the ABC story I read on it, Duvall is only apologizing for his comments, not his behavior. Here’s his statement:

“I am deeply saddened that my inappropriate comments have become a major distraction for my colleagues in the Assembly, who are working hard on the very serious problems facing our state,” he said. “Therefore, I have decided to resign my office, effective immediately, so that the Assembly can get back to work.”

The story goes on: “Before resigning, Duvall apologized for the comments on his campaign Web site and said he made a mistake.

‘I deeply regret the comments I made in what I believed to be a private conversation,” he said. “This is a private matter and I ask that everyone respect the privacy of all involved.’”

HE wants people to respect HIS privacy? What about these idiot women who come off looking like prostitutes? These can’t be their proudest moments that he’s sharing with the world.
