Fellow conservatives, it’s time to call on Clarence Thomas to resign
You see you know he's a conservative because he said "fellow conservatives". Top notch. Oh and because this next story is f*cking hilarious I'm going to post it:
Clarence Thomas's wife presents award to James O'Keefe at Trump hotel
Bwahaha.
And just to show it's not Democrats who hold a monopoly on sleaze:
LMAO! Wtf?
Rep. Trent Franks' absolutely bizarre resignation letter
"What did Franks do, you ask? Let's let Franks tell you himself. Here's an excerpt from his statement announcing his resignation:
"Due to my familiarity and experience with the process of surrogacy, I clearly became insensitive as to how the discussion of such an intensely personal topic might affect others.
"I have recently learned that the Ethics Committee is reviewing an inquiry regarding my discussion of surrogacy with two previous female subordinates, making each feel uncomfortable. I deeply regret that my discussion of this option and process in the workplace caused distress."
LOL, holy shit this is just so very odd. "I'm familiar with surrogacy, so I asked some employees if they'd bear a surrogate for me". Top notch.

So what's wrong with him asking that?
I don't get it.
If you work all day with people and you're not an *sshole, you'll make lots of friends. You would only ask friends that question. And female friends, at that.
So what was wrong with his question? Was this his sleazy way of asking if he could bang them? Because in a proper surrogacy process, it'd be with medical professionals and there is a process. If he was asking for that, there's nothing wrong with that.
Edit - I read the article. He's resigning because he would be unable to endure the ethics probe. This is about something else and the surrogacy request is just a front. As I thought, there was nothing at all wrong with his request. He wasn't asking to sleep with them, he was asking to do an above board surrogacy.
His words:
"Franks said he was compelled to resign after concluding that he would be unable to endure the ethics probe “before distorted and sensationalized versions of this story would put me, my family, my staff, and my noble colleagues in the House of Representatives through hyperbolized public excoriation.”"
Seems obvious....he's hiding something else.
It seems he asked it in a creepy as way. I just picture the way he got into the conversation. Some female employee perhaps talking about their niece of nephew, then:
Trent: You seem good with kids, you wanna have my surrogate baby? Fret not! I know a lot about surrogacy.
As for the ethics thing, it could be he is afraid more will come out. Or it could be he knows those things can take a while, and he would be dogged by this until the committee is done.
Interesting article:
It's very short so I will post the entire thing:
"A friend writes to raise a question about one of the anomalies in the current sexual misconduct/sexual harassment panic. He observes that in all the discussion of Senator Franken and related issues, it is curious that none of the Democratic senators — not Senator Gillibrand, not Senator Harris, not Senator Klobuchar, not any of the rest — has suggested that Senator Menendez take early retirement.
The bribery charges against Senator Melendez resulted in a hung jury. It is nevertheless unclear how the Democrats can now overlook allegations of Senator Menedez’s paid dalliances with young women in the Dominican Republic. They seem as credible as the 40-plus year-old allegations against Roy Moore and far more recent. Following the mistrial in the Menendez case, Star-Ledger columnist Paul Mulshine took up the possible double standard.
Perhaps there will be a further awakening of the Democrats’ conscience after Democrat Phil Murphy is sworn in as the new Governor of New Jersey on January 16. Or does what happens in the Dominican Republic stay in the Dominican Republic?"
Thoughts?
^^Just kinda makes me smile, cuz I'm guessing they thought they cut away all the cancer by getting rid of Franken. I hope conservatives are smart enough to bring this up. Seeing how some act now, they legitimately might not be smart enough to do so.
Another point was brought up by Ben Shapiro the other day. What has been truly sacrificed? Franken is gone, a Democrat will replace him. Conyers "retires" and...it won't be a Republican that steps in, correct?
What power has been relinquished in the name of doing the right thing? They maintain the power and give themselves a potent political tool to use against their enemies. Good politics to be sure, but no moral high ground achieved, no real power given up.

Yes, he paid them money for sex. In another country. Who cares?
Even if it was done here in the US, I don't care. Prostitution should be legal and two consenting adults should not be shamed for entering into an mutually beneficial agreement.

Bringing this up again? Okay.
You didn't troll, it wasn't some clever game planned from the start. It was clear to everyone that you lied so much you couldn't keep your story straight and you used "but I was trolling" to try and cover it up.

It was trolling Rob, it's okay. Deal with it. And I only brought it up cuz others brought it up.
If you don't believe it, neat.
So this won't be good:
She still insists the signature is his, but you know Moore will pounce on this. He has already tweeted about it.
